  • Ram allocation increase

    Look i know this question has been up over BILLIONS of times, but for me it's kinda different

    If my eyes weren't hallucinating(which is probably true)


    The ram allocated when i turned on my server said 2.7GB at the initial when i turned on my rlcraft server, for like around 4weeks? and Then when i checked it again like 2weeks ago, it was actually 2.9GB, so it increased by 200MB. I haven't changed any of the mods, and there was no update to the rlcraft modpack.
    The only difference that there may be is that another player joined the server(which is my friend.including me, there was total 3 players in the server)


    and this did not change when we play with 2 players in

    so....i think the ram allocation increases when more memory is needed? like when server file gets heavier(more MB)

  • aternos mod managements

    Oh, thank you for letting me know!

    can i ask you what we can do to improve our plays?

    what we try to do is to stay close to reduce the chunks loading, and i'm thinking of turning down few mods like chunk animator and better foilage.
    Any more suggestions that may reduce the lag, and make the game run more smoothly?

  • aternos mod managements

    Aternos is a great minecraft hosting site, with the availbility to make a server to play with friends for free.
    people can play it with just vanilla minecraft, or a modded one if bored


    now here is my suggestions. Big mods such as RLcraft or Crazicraft takes up quite a lot of RAM. I know you're running this for free, and you won't be able to afford for more advancements, but if you can, i think you should differ the RAM that can be allocated to normal Vanilla server and a modded server.

    i'm not trying to discriminate the player who play vanilla, but i personally think that it will be more efficient, as normal server doesn't require as much RAM as modded ones. Perhaps the normal Vanilla to 2.5GB and modded to 3GB? i would love if you could change it to 4GB, as if i constantly check on the RAM meter on my server site, it get close to limit.and we haven't even travelled to the nether and other dimension yet.

    I would love new changes, or even good replies that would help us to play with less lag.Thank you in advance. :)

    EDIT: i've seen many people writing similar stuffs related to RAM problems, if you cannot change the ram size, i would love some tips in to reduce the lag for the server as i play RLcraft with 2 other friends and believe me, the lags hits me quite hard.

  • my friend has this 'Internal Exception: java.io.IOException: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host' in my hosted aternos server

    We play an RLcraft server, and today when we tried to play it and i turned on the server, i were able to connect successfully with a minor lag(always happens but it's ok) but my friend, couldn't connect for over a minute or so. He got this 'Internal Exception: java.io.IOException: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host' and i don't know what to do. He reinstalled the mod and forge app, he checked his privacy setting in xbox, he tried changing the ip address( the third one below the port number when you click connect button after turning on the server) but didn't work.

    Looking at similar situations on this forum, and going into the site
    https://support.aternos.org/hc…bly-closed-by-remote-host

    it says

    You only need to follow the instructions of this article if the Aternos support advises you to do so.


    so i'm just asking the helpers if i should follow these instructions, or more likely, my friends should do these steps.
