About this Mod

Note: This mod is just a way for me to kill time. So with it in the full release now, I probably won't make many changes or additions unless I need to fix something crucial to the mod.

Item Speedrun is a mod inspired by some of the categories within Speedrun.com's Category Extensions for Minecraft, namely "All Swords," "All Logs," "All Wool," etc. This mod features different "run" options, ranging from the normal "seek out a random item" to categories near identical to the categories on Speedrun.com.

Standard Run

Selects an item at random. The selected difficulty determines the pool of selectable items. The GUI to change difficulties and start a run can be opened with I, (this is the default bind).

Hard:
All items obtainable in Survival can be chosen.

Medium:
All items obtainable in Survival in both the Overworld and Nether.

Easy:
All items obtainable in Survival in the Overworld.

Category Run Options

Selects an item at random from a themed category. Each category has a different pool of items relating to a theme or set of items. The GUI to change categories and start a run can be opened with U, (this is the default bind).

Aquatic:
Items relating to, or found in, an ocean setting.

Colorful:
All colorful blocks, one that can be dyed, are dyed, or have color variants.

Food & Crops:
All edible items, from animals or farming. Does not include potions.

End:
Items relating to, or found in, the End.

Farming:
Crops and other food items that can be farmed or used to farm.

Mob Drops:
Items dropped from entities, string, feathers, etc.

Nether:
Items relating to, or found in, the Nether.

Redstone:
All Redstone components, pistons, buttons, etc.

Tools:
Pretty self-explanatory, pickaxes, shovels, etc.

Underground:
Items relating to, or found, underground.

Challenge Run Options

These function almost identically to the same categories in the category extensions for Minecraft Java speedruns. You have to collect multiple items in a set. Some sets here are identical to those found on Speedrun.com, such as "All Swords" and "All Wools." The GUI to change categories and start a run can be opened with O, (this is the default bind).

Statistics

There is also a statistics menu, opened using H (this is the default bind). You can see the total number of runs you've started, your best run's time and item (which only tracks Standard and Category runs), and your favorite difficulty, which shows which difficulty you play the most and how many times you've played it (only tracks Standard run difficulties).

Commands

There are also a few commands that exist. However, these exist almost entirely for debug purposes.

  • /stop_run stops the currently active run.
  • /get_run_item tells you what item you need to get. This is a failsafe in the case that the run UI doesn't load.
  • /clear_statistics resets your statistics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Item Speedrun 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 (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Item Speedrun compatible with forge?

Item Speedrun officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Item Speedrun – how to optimize performance?

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