Entity LagFix & Lag 'B' Gon Server Mods

[Linda Gielen]

Hi All,

I was having some issues with lag on a MinecraftEdu map I created for a unit.  I did some research and found two mods that I wanted to share with the group as possible solutions for your lag issues.  Both of these are Forge compatible, are server-side mods (so no need to do a client upload) and work with the MinecraftEdu 1.7.10 version.

The first one is Entity LagFix.  This is a simple one with some manual commands that allow you to do the "on the fly" clearing of entities.  The second one is Lag 'B' Gon.  This one does a lot of auto-clearing, but you need to be sure to add items to the mod's blacklist that you do not want cleared.  I am currently running the Fossils and Archaeology Mod, and our dinosaur and dinosaur eggs were disappearing.  Once theses items were added to the blacklist, we were back on track. This mod also does some chunk unloading, which really helped with my map since I spread the players over a large area.  It also has many commands to customize the mod to fit your needs.

I have only tested with the Fossils mod, so if you have other mods loaded, I would suggest testing it out before you implement it in a class project.  If you are interested in why Minecraft servers lag, I found this great article that helped me understand what causes it: Improving Your Minecraft Server's Performance.
