Server Lag Mitigation Strategy

/archive/schematics/plugins/bots/ · last edited 10 Jan 2020 · Support

The server is currently experiencing occasional lag spikes, particularly during peak hours and when multiple players are engaged in high-impact activities such as building, combat, or using resource-intensive plugins. This is primarily due to the limitations of the current hosting environment, which is a shared server with limited dedicated resources. While this setup was sufficient during early testing and low-usage periods, the growing number of active users has strained the available processing power and memory.

To address this, we are in the process of migrating the server to a dedicated hosting solution. This will provide more consistent performance and allow us to scale resources as needed. The new setup will also enable us to implement better monitoring tools, which will help us identify and resolve lag causes more quickly in the future. This migration is expected to take place over the next few weeks, during which time we will perform regular checks to ensure minimal disruption to the community.

In the meantime, we are working with plugin developers to optimize or disable non-essential features that contribute to server load. We are also reviewing and adjusting server settings to improve efficiency without compromising the gameplay experience. These steps are temporary but necessary to maintain a stable and enjoyable environment for all players while the full migration is underway.
