Server Constantly Crashing

[covert laurel]

Hi, I am hosting a private server and I keep running into issues with the server. The server keeps crashing and I unfortunately cannot understand what is causing the issue. Any ideas?

I am using the latest version of Craftoria that is provided by CurseForge.

your server is struggling to keep up with all the worldgen it is being asked to do. increase the max-tick-time in the server.properties to help, assuming you dont want to pregen your world

Ok, I'll try increasing the max-tick-time. Are there any other solutions aside from pregening my world? If pregening my world is the only option, how would I do that?

your cpu is pretty weak tbh, and some of the structures in the mod and the worldgen mod puts a pretty high tax on the cpu. pregenerating is the "best" way. if you dont mind getting kicked due to timeout but having the server keep doing its thing, you can try just disabling the watchdog timer by setting max-tick-time to -1. the risk there is that if it does actually freeze completely, you would have to manually kill it

i believe the official servers use chunky pregenerator https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/chunky-pregenerator-forge/files/6383261

i would recommend disabling the watchdog timer during pregen as that will almost certainly cause the server to "freeze" while c2me offloads chunk generation to another thread and you dont want it to be constantly crashing while pregenerating

Awesome, thank you so much! I'll look into those options.
