WHY SKYFACTORY 4 ON A SERVER

SkyFactory 4 is modded skyblock perfected: you start on a single tree over the void and bootstrap to automated everything, guided by one of the best achievement trees ever built. The constraint is the genius — every resource chain has to be earned from leaves and saplings.

It's an ideal server pack because progress is legible: anyone can look at the island and see exactly how far the group has climbed since last week.

Questions, answered.

How much RAM does a SkyFactory 4 server need?+

6 GB is comfortable — skyblock worlds are tiny, but late-game automation (mob farms, item networks) carries a real tick cost.

Do we share one island or get one each?+

Both work: the default map is a shared island, which is where the co-op magic is. Island-per-team is configurable through the pack's world settings if your group prefers competition.

Is the void world safe from corruption?+

As safe as any world, and cheaper to back up — our automatic daily backups plus one-click manual snapshots mean a griefed or glitched island rolls back in minutes.
