Yesterday I discovered a typo introduced late February 2018 which had caused additional slowness. This has been fixed as of May 9, 2018.

I just noticed that when I upgraded postgresql last, I had the config set up incorrectly, shared_buffers was set to 18MB instead of 18GB. I don't know what effect this typo would have had, but everything has been fine regardless.

Perhaps you've already done this, but I would suggest to reduce the Items' Entity Time To Live (item_entity_ttl); by default it is set to 900 (15mins)... I think that 300 (5mins) is more than enough for a player to recover what might have been dropped because of death or whatever the reason. Yes, a...

I found a bunch of problems with the bees mod, and have tested out solutions and it seems to work. Thank you for your patience.

Turns out that in addition to the blackholing I was just long overdue for a /clearobjects on that server (last time I did was over 6 months ago). It had gotten so bad that I was getting weird packet errors when trying to connect today. I hate doing a /clearobjects because everyone loses all their t...

I am extremely desperate. My servers are going bonkers daily and I don't know what to do about it. I had no idea the later bees mod was not maintained. I'm commenting this and that out and nothing's working. I am very desperate and willing to work with someone. If I have to I'd like to replace all b...

On Creative Gardens today I found a crash with: 2018-04-21 13:07:12: ERROR[Main]: ServerError: AsyncErr: ServerThread::run Lua: Runtime error from mod 'bees' in callback node_on_timer(): Invalid position (expected table got nil). 2018-04-21 13:07:12: ERROR[Main]: stack traceback: 2018-04-21 13:07:12...

I will give that a try Nathan, thank you so much. I also noticed a problem where chopping a hive will occasionally give you an unknown item "wax" This is probably because of line 64: inv:add_item('main', ItemStack('wax')) --20% chance should probably be 'bees:wax' But regardless I have cha...

As my servers grew the bees mod made them unusably slow with excessive ABM errors. I recently upgraded the bees mod on my server to vitalie's 3.0-dev, which does not have this problem. Stuff is transitioning over as you can't get bees from pre-existing beehives but you can get the honey and chop th...

If the mod is GPLv3 or Creative Commons with -NC you might. Mods might have to be digitally signed by Valve's key

DRM or not, forget it. we obviously won't be using it So we definitely are doing this? Has every mod designer signed off on it? If you sign the game and its mods over to Steam, there will be fallout by people like me who don't want to give Steam backdoor access to possibly everything on their VPS (...

Steam takes everything, including compiling from source, hacking existing mods to fit your needs, running a server and handling kicks and bans (and what mod to use for doing so, if you're allowed to use anything not associated with Steam accounts and VAC to begin with) yourself, setting it up on you...

Just an off-topic note that if you type #AntiBanMovement into Twitter you get two Tweets, one on golf and one on abortion.

With #ProBanMovement you get nothing at all.

Or logging in to the router and click reboot.

You have to change the router's MAC though

IIRC the first major update to Windows 10 suddenly disabled a bunch of CPU benchmarking and overclocking tools.

I have been a bit extreme with bans and rollbacks in the past but these days I give regular players who don't usually cause damage a yelling at. But new players on the servers who do pit griefing, water griefing, and lava griefing are automatic bans. It's just way too much work to fix sometimes, esp...
