SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you reliably host a modpack-based Minecraft server by guiding the full setup from pack inspection through configuration, Java/loader installation, firewall access, and backups.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Modpack-aware server installation: Detects loader type/version and uses the pack’s installer in server-only mode so you don’t accidentally launch during setup.
  • Correct server configuration for modded play: Produces starter-ready server.properties defaults for online/LAN behavior and mod-required settings like allow-flight.
  • Performance and reliability tuning: Helps size JVM memory via user_jvm_args.txt, adds a launch script, and sets up automated world backups with pruning.
  • Use case: Hosting a NeoForge/Forge modpack from a provided server pack zip, then ensuring players can join while you monitor logs and keep the world safe with scheduled backups.

Quick Start

Tell me the server pack URL (or local zip path) and your expected player count, and I will generate a complete, modded-ready server setup plan including Java version choice, server.properties settings, JVM heap sizing, a start script, and a backup schedule.
