Got it—let's keep PI Craft entirely separate. Since this is a server-side optimization project specifically built for the unique challenges of ARM-based hardware like the Raspberry Pi, the description should emphasize efficiency and resource management.
Here is a professional draft for your PI Craft Modrinth page:
PI Craft: The Lightweight Server Optimization Suite PI Craft is a performance-focused modpack designed to make high-quality Minecraft hosting accessible on low-power hardware. While specifically tuned for the constraints of a Raspberry Pi, the optimizations included in this pack provide a significant performance overhead for any server environment, from home-hosted PCs to dedicated cloud instances.
The goal of PI Craft is simple: higher Tick Rates (TPS), lower latency, and a smoother experience for every player on the map.
Key Performance Features
-
Superior TPS Stability By integrating industry-leading optimization mods like Lithium, PI Craft streamlines the game's internal logic. This reduces the CPU cycles required for entity AI, redstone calculations, and physics, ensuring your server maintains a consistent 20 TPS even under heavy load.
-
Intelligent Memory Management Running a server on limited RAM is one of the biggest hurdles for small-scale hosting. PI Craft includes specialized memory-mapping optimizations that reduce the overall heap footprint and prevent the aggressive garbage collection spikes that often lead to "Server is lagging!" warnings.
-
Optimized World Streaming Chunk loading and data synchronization are often the primary causes of "rubber-banding." PI Craft optimizes how world data is handled and sent to players, allowing for faster exploration and more responsive block interactions, even on slower storage media like microSD cards.
Why Choose PI Craft? Many server optimization "packs" are just a collection of random mods. PI Craft is a curated suite that focuses on the essentials:
Low Overhead: No "bloat" mods—only what is necessary for speed.
Hardware Inclusive: Designed to run on ARM (Raspberry Pi) but provides a massive boost to x86/64 systems as well.
Out-of-the-Box Performance: Pre-configured to provide immediate results without needing to dig through complex config files.
