About this Mod

Been wanting to give copper a more meaningful purpose?
with this pack all blocks that are considered "redstone components" have copper in their recipes

recipes that has been changed:

  • rails (most types), hoppers, tripwire hook and pistons: requires copper ingots instead of iron
  • powered rails: requires 4 copper ingots and 2 gold ingots
  • crafters: still need some iron for its recipe

there is also a resourcepack build in to reflect the changes

(high chance that this most likely can cause some conflicts and compatiblity issues)

Frequently Asked Questions

CU later server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong datapack 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 CU later compatible with datapack and fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?

CU later officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 1.21.11, 1.21.10, 1.21.9. 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 CU later – how to optimize performance?

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