Hey everyone, I started a server at the beginning of 2025 to play with my friends, but others are welcome to join too. We are hosting until at least the end of June (and should we not continue hosting past that date, I can make the world save available).

Here's some server specs:
Ram: 16GB (potentially increased later if needed)
CPU: Ryzen 7900x (4 cores)
Hosting location: New Jersey (East Coast USA) 🇺🇸

Some more details:

-Pollution is enabled 🏭 🚬 📈
-Game difficulty is set to Hard ☠️ 💪 ☠️
-Each player gets 175 chunks of claimed land and 15 force loaded chunks 🗺️ 🏙️ 🗺️
-You get one /home, but it doesn't work cross-dimensionally and it has a long cooldown between uses. TPA similarly exists but has the same restrictions, because I don't want to trivialize travel. 🏠 👟 ✈️
-I intend to mostly just be another player on the server, a hands off admin that doesn't intervene unless major issues come up. My IGN is V1nsan1ty0 if you catch me online. 👋 😄

I'm aiming to create a 'vanilla' GTNH experience comparable to single-player but with friends, so the idea is that plugin usage and config changes are fairly minimal. I expect the result is that gameplay here will be a slightly harder than on most of the other servers out there, where they might have a bunch of teleport commands, starter kits, etc.

If all that sounds good, join our Discord server! You can say hello and drop your username in the channel to request a whitelist, and I'll get you added ASAP.

To clarify on the chunkloading thing since questions came up, I haven't banned the personal chunkloaders and other in-game options that can chunkload for ender pearls, etc. You just get five "free" force loaded chunks through the FTBteams thing that GTNH comes with.

this seems interesting, not having teleportation is a rare decision

We have two teams in LV now, but the world's still pretty fresh.

Plan is to update to 2.7.2 tonight.

Updated to 2.7.2

Server performance has been quite good thus far, so we've raised the render distance from the default of 8 up to 10, and now we're allowing a bit more land claims and force loaded chunks.

Can you find true love on the server?

Bump.

I would be interested playing on this server, and would prefer playing in pairs. If someone else who is interested in playing on this server is interested joining me, DM me. Time zone EST.

#

I believe we now have one team in HV, one in MV, and several more in LV! But the world's still fairly fresh and more players are welcome to join.

I'd be curious if you've had unusual issues with chunks failing to unload leading to boiler explosions, machines out of power when they shouldn't be, etc given your policy of moderation on chunk loaders.

# blazing jackal I'd be curious if you've had unusual issues with chunks failing to unload leadin...

No such incidents that I'm aware of. So long as you're cognizant of the chunk borders and keep water sources and boilers both loaded, and ideally both in the same chunk, those sorts of things don't seem to occur.

The server does automatically reset once per day, which means the FTButils force loaded bases don't stay loaded for more than 24 consecutive hours without someone logging on again and visiting the location.

er, serverutilities chunk loads are always on. the railcraft passive loaders require loading then last until restart. i restart daily too

#

no. there was a github issue about introducing a "decay" mechanic where the SU chunk load would expire if your team doesn't login for a long time

#

i don't know if that's available. my server is having issues with entities ticking when they shouldnt, and weird chunk load behaviors with SU. i suggest to only trust it for crops, nothing mechanical or boiler related.

#

if you want machines loaded, use anchors.

#

it seems to me much of gtnh is tested with an "always chunkloaded on" attitude.

Ender dragon was just slain, but no team has made it to the moon yet! I think we have two in HV and maybe two or three more in MV

I give server a 7/8 because that's how many mines this tile has around it

I guess it's not too "fresh" anymore, we've been playing on the world for a few months now and one team has made it to the moon!

But more people are still welcome to join us--nobdy is deep in EV or beyond yet.

Congrats on your teamwork and reaching the moon!

Updated to 2.7.3.

We have several space age teams now and a fairly stable playerbase of 7 or 8 active players, but we can welcome some more players if anybody is interested in joining.

And now we're on 2.7.4!
