About this Mod

Chutes is a simple mod that adds 2 new blocks: the Wooden Chute and the Wooden Entry Chute.

These act exactly as you would expect from looking at them, they are nothing more than hollow vertical blocks. They can have several uses, such as:

Funnelling dropped items launched from Droppers and such.
Making compact elevators with the help of fans.
Making air filled holes through water.

Of course, you can do all of these things with an empty space surrounded by solid blocks on all 4 sides, but Chutes do that in only a single block's space on top of being cheaper.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chutes 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 (1.12.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Chutes compatible with forge?

Chutes officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.12.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Chutes – how to optimize performance?

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