About this Mod

Features

Survival Instinct is a mod set in an apocalyptic era where after the fall in the value of money, society succumbed to chaos, it ceased to have any value and began to have vandalism and destruction.
Within the world you will find new structures devastated over time, new minerals in the depths such as Steellium and Sulfur that will help you progress in your adventure.
And not only that, but it will also bring military equipment that will help you in your survival, with a lot of new weapons to use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Survival Instinct server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Survival Instinct compatible with forge?

Survival Instinct officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Survival Instinct – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Survival Instinct 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.
