Server crashes when spesific players join
2 players on my modded 1.20.1 server crash the server when they join. the same world in singleplayer work perfectly fine, so i'm guessing this is not a chunk ban thing.
Connections issues with server, players timing out or connection reset
Around two days ago, server hosts experienced issues with their node's DDoS protection system, therefore i assume something was changed to fix it. Since then, some of our players have been unable to join the server and keep encountering this error.
These players are from different locations worldwide so there's no correlation between region for effected players. They have tried everything from restarting Minecraft and their PC, updating Windows and Java, checking firewall settings, and resetting network protocols, but none of these seem to work longterm. If they do manage to connect, they eventually get disconnected again. We've also tried restarting both backend servers and proxy, giving them raw IP, deleting player data but any of this didn't help.
These players are able to join any other server and their network otherwise is fine, they all seem to be Java. And there's also a part of player base that can connect just fine, including myself....
Issue with server's rapidly growing file size
Season 2 of my SMP server has been going on for just a month now, but it's file size has already grown up to 19GB and doesn't seem to be slowing down. The server members have explored quite a lot of chunks, but I think it was like that already in s1 and it took 2 years for it's world size to reach 30GB. The main difference between the two season is the version 1.19.3 -> 1.21.1 and the modpack I believe.
Is this normal? Should I be worried? If this is a problem, what can I do to figure out how to fix it?...
i alr setuped difficulty mode but still it's on easy mode
player pressed "esc" -> "opitons" -> "online". they saw it's on easy mode, but i setuped in portpertis file dificulty:hard, and also in game.
