What server versions/software can I use?

This allows for endless possibilities and ensures that players can tailor their gameplay to their preferences.

Playing with friends

An SMP for you and your friends

A survival world for a group that knows each other. It starts vanilla, then someone wants a claims plugin, someone else wants a shop, and a few months in the map is far bigger than the day you started. Plan for that instead of for day one.

Comfortable for 10 to 15 regulars

Room for 10 to 15 friendsand we never charge per player, on any plan

Size for your busiest normal evening, not your quietest one
Two CPU threads, so the world keeps up when everyone is online at once
A free subdomain, so friends join on a name instead of an IP

Running modpacks

A modded server that does not stutter

Modpacks are a different workload from a plugin server. A big pack loads thousands of extra blocks, items and world generators, and it wants CPU it does not have to share. This is the one case where the standard plans are the wrong answer.

Mid-weight packs, roughly 5 to 10 players

Dedicated CPU coresnot shared with anyone else on the node

Comfortable with packs in the 50 to 150 mod range, and Create-style packs
One-click installs, or upload your own pack
Dedicated cores, which is what actually stops a modded world stuttering

Building a network

A network with a lobby and several worlds

You want players to land in a lobby and walk through a portal into survival, creative or minigames, without ever disconnecting. That is a proxy in front, and a server behind it for each world. It costs less to start than most people expect.

A three server network from €13.48 per month

One address, many serversBungeeCord, Waterfall and Velocity are all supported

The proxy handles the address and moves players between servers
Each world runs on its own server, so a laggy minigame cannot slow survival down
Add another world later by adding one more server behind the same proxy

Plans and pricing
