Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles Server Hosting

Start with 8 GB. The pack loads 267 mods on Forge 1.12.2, and a big part of that memory is taken before the first login. Usage then climbs with every dimension your group keeps loaded, so a crew split across a planet, a dungeon dimension and two overworld bases needs more headroom than one that travels together.

The quest line is designed for a small group sharing progress, and that is where 8 GB fits comfortably. Each extra player tends to bring another loaded dimension and another machine setup, so when your group grows, raise the RAM and check tick time with spark instead of guessing.

Take a backup first, then install the newer build from the Modpacks tab. Read the changelog beforehand for mods that were removed, because their blocks vanish from placed builds. Since V.8.0_R1 is the final release, most servers only update once, when an older world is carried forward to it.

Yes, through the mods folder, but carefully. Freebi85 rewrote many recipes and quests around specific mods, so removing one can leave quests impossible to finish and crafting chains broken. Adding a mod is safer when it is built for Forge 1.12.2, and every player must put the same file in their own client.

Both are long Forge 1.12.2 packs that end in space. SevTech: Ages locks technology behind ages you unlock in a fixed order, while Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles gives more freedom and puts its weight on exploration: dungeons, dragons and more than twenty dimensions, with the quest book acting as a guide rather than a gate.

Each dimension is generated the first time a player visits it, and space dimensions bring their own terrain and structures. That first arrival can cause a brief spike. Pregenerate the overworld with /forge generate, try to keep bases in fewer dimensions, and those spikes stay short and rare.
