About this Mod
A simple little mod that sets the area in which a player can be, and kill them if they get out. Great for prisons, or if you don't want to get distracted.
How does this mod work?
Get a potion and drink it. You will now, whilst the potion is active, be limited to an area around where you drank the potion. There are five kinds of potion I made:
| Name..................... | Duration.... | Max. Distance |
|---------------------------|--------------|---------------|
| Potion of Binding 1...... | 1:30 min.... | 32 blocks.... |
| Potion of Binding 2...... | 3:00 min.... | 40 blocks.... |
| Potion of Binding 3...... | 6:00 min.... | 48 blocks.... |
| Potion of Binding 4...... | 12 min...... | 64 blocks.... |
| Potion of Binding Forever | - infinite - | 80 blocks.... |

Bound server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong neoforge 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 (1.21.10). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Bound officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.10, 1.21.9, 1.21.8. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Bound – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Bound 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.
