About this Mod
🎭 Actor (ActorMC)
Ever wanted to control a Minecraft player through code — cleanly, smoothly, and server-compatible?
Actor is a modding API / developer library that lets you drive a player like they’re actually pressing keys and clicking a mouse 🖱️⌨️
Perfect for automation, testing, TAS tooling, and “player-as-a-program” ideas.
👤 For Players
⚠️ This mod alone does not do anything by itself.
Actor is a library dependency for other mods.
If you install only Actor, you won’t see any new items, commands, or gameplay changes.
✅ Install Actor if:
- Another mod requires it
- You’re a developer building with it 🧑💻

Actor 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 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Actor compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?
Actor officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 1.21.11, 1.21.10. 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 Actor – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Actor 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.
