  • I currently have a server which I played with my friends (2 friends currently and a few more when possible). I am currently confused about the capabilities of Aternos' servers as I had seen in another thread that Aternos could run Create mod just fine. But when I made a few Create contraptions, lags started to appear, and that was before Aternos servers had a network issue (10 December 2022).


    As per 2 days before the day this thread was made, I have made what I could only describe as a large Create engine cluster. After the creation of said engine, the server started to be absolutely laggy. Me and my friends had a hard time to connect to the server as it frequently spews out errors such as java errors, time outs, and unknown hosts. The server itself is also quite ruthless as anything that we (especially me who is currently troubleshooting said server) do seem to be very delayed could take up to 4-5 minutes to be registered.


    In case if it's necessary, I have attached 2 pictures of the server and a duplicate test server which only difference is that the test server doesn't have any working Create contraptions (and also no lags were present, or at least apparent enough) since it was basically a copy of the currently laggy server from a few days ago.
