Reduce lag and high resource usage

Tune slots, view distance, entities, mods, autosave, and restart schedules.

Open the right area

Open your server in the VialStack panel and check the Files, Console, Backups, and Startup tabs before making changes.

Back up before changes

Create a backup before editing saves, uploading worlds, installing mods, or changing major config files.

Save and restart

Save your change, restart the server, and watch the console until the server is ready.

Check logs if it fails

If the server does not start, open the latest log and look for the first real error before changing more settings.

Quick checks

  • Change one thing at a time.
  • Keep backups before risky edits.
  • Send the first log error to support if you need help.
