PLAYER LOAD
How player count affects resources
Players split between surface and caves distribute work across shards; gathering at one boss area concentrates entities locally.
-
Processor workload
Measure processor peaks and game-loop response during a busy session.
-
RAM
Track peak memory use together with growth headroom.
-
SSD storage
Measure storage behaviour across saves, logs, and backups.
-
Mod and script density
Measure actual mod, plugin, and script workload separately from extension count.
-
World / map size
Track world size, active regions, and persistent-data growth together.
-
Player scenario
Evaluate concurrent-player distribution, activity, and content workload together.
Detailed planning notes
| Scenario | Resource effect | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Concurrent players | Players split between surface and caves distribute work across shards; gathering at one boss area concentrates entities locally. | Measure a busy session |
| Game activity | Caves can run as a separate shard, while world events, developed bases, and creature counts shape each shard differently. | Repeat the peak scenario |
| World / save growth | Exploration, bases, and entities accumulate in long-running worlds; keep cluster, master, and caves saves in the same restore point. | Track save and restore duration |
Mod / plugin level
Mods, plugins, and additional content
Workshop content includes client-required and server-only mods. Review mod settings and cluster dependencies before updates.
Mod compatibility can vary by game and server-software release.
