Persistent Mob Issues
Ive been running paper servers for a few years and one of the ongoing issues ive had is persistent mobs -- particularly endermen and zombies. Once they pick up an item, they just live forever. Zombies were particularly bad because other mobs will die in caves, or players will leave blocks behind, and when you run a server 24/7 for months or years, it starts to add up.
We run mostly vanilla, and it is important for players to be able to have persistent mobs.
My solution was a script that runs once a day that teleports every zombie variant holding a specific list of items (mostly trash that they would find in a cave) and teleports them into the void. And players know to keep a persistent mob, they need to be holding a craftable item....
perplexing memory issues
Running a heavily modded, 8gb 1.20.1 Forge server through Witherhosting, and it crashes very randomly with the exit code 137. Sometimes it will crash when a new person joins, sometimes just randomly when we're not doing anything in specific. Here are the startup arguments I have for it:
java -Xms128M -Xmx7G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+UseContainerSupport -XX:G1NewSizePercent=30 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=40 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=8M -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:G1HeapWastePercent=5 -XX:G1MixedGCCountTarget=4 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=15 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=90 -XX:G1RSetUpdatingPauseTimePercent=5 -XX:SurvivorRatio=32 -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -Dusing.aikars.flags=https://mcflags.emc.gs -Daikars.new.flags=true -Dterminal.jline=false -Dterminal.ansi=true $( [[ ! -f unix_args.txt ]] && printf %s "-jar server.jar" || printf %s "@unix_args.txt" )
