How to Monitor Server RAM and Retrieve Crash Reports

Tracking Server Memory

Crash Utilities provides tools to diagnose server health without leaving the game. Run the memory utility commands to observe server RAM usage over time. Watching this data helps you distinguish between normal temporary memory spikes and persistent memory leaks that occur as chunks stay loaded.

Retrieving Logs and Cleaning Up Chunks

When issues cause tick lag or server downtime, use the administrative commands to gather information and clean the environment:

  • Fetch Reports: Run the log command to pull server log files and recent crash reports directly inside the game, saving time compared to browsing raw server folders.
  • Find Entity Dense Chunks: Execute the chunk search commands to instantly identify specific chunks that contain massive clusters of mobs or dropped items.
  • Clear Dropped Ground Items: Run the cleanup command to automatically sweep and clear dropped items from the ground whenever their total count exceeds your configured threshold.
  • Locate Tile Entities: Search for specific tile entities across any dimension to pinpoint runaway blocks.
