📖About 📖


Ad Astra! (translation: "To the Stars!") is a space mod for Fabric and Forge with a focus on technology, travel and
exploration. We've got everything you need to become an astronaut: rockets, space suits, space stations and machines.
Why not take a stroll on the Moon? Build a self-sustaining bunker on Mars? Go mining on Venus? The entire Solar System,
better yet, Milky Way, is at your disposal!

  • Five celestial bodies: The Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury and Glacio, in two different solar systems. Each planet
    expresses a distinctive flair, with specific mobs and unique materials.
  • Vehicles: Four rocket tiers for interplanetary travel and a rover for traversing the rough, alien terrain ahead.
  • Technology: Standard processing machines and generators, along with oxygen generation and distribution, fuel refining,
    water pumping, cable, fluid pipes and a rocket workbench.
  • Building: Spruce up your builds with over 250 building blocks, ranging from planet-specific bricks and stones to space
    station deco and metal plating.
  • An in-game guidebook, explaining everything you need to progress and prosper in Ad Astra!

Frequently Asked Questions

Ad Astra server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 4 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Ad Astra compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?

Ad Astra officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.1, 1.20. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Ad Astra – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 6 GB (per 5 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Ad Astra consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
