About this Mod
Hopper adds hoppers to Minecraft!
Hoppers are an easy-to-use, simple system for transporting items between chests. The Hopper is crafted with a chest and 5 iron. If it's not powered by redstone, it takes items out of the container on its top face (or collects items lying on the ground in that location), and deposits them into the container it's pointing at. The hopper can also be placed upside down, for adding items into the fuel slot of a furnace, say.
It also adds a Block of Redstone. In the world, it's a piston-pushable, solid-block redstone power source. As an item, it acts as a convenient storage block for all that redstone dust you have lying around.

Hopper 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 (1.4.7). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Hopper compatible with forge?
Hopper officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.4.7. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Hopper – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Hopper 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.
