About this Mod

XNet

XNet is a mod which adds a single type of cable: a networking cable. Using networking cables you can instantly transport items, fluids, energy, and information. The main focus of this mod is efficiency and flexibility. Efficiency in that it is possible to make huge cable networks (tested with two chests separated by a cable of 12000 blocks long) with no lag. The cables themselves are not even tile entities. Flexibility in that the controller allows for really flexible configuration for distributing information.

Frequently Asked Questions

XNet 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 (1.21.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is XNet compatible with forge and neoforge?

XNet officially supports forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.20.1, 1.19.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with XNet – how to optimize performance?

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