Server Performance & Limits

Server Performance & Limits

Veylor deliberately allows farms. To make that work for everyone, there are a few fixed limits — you should know them before you spend three days building.

Spawners per Chunk

Maximum 15 spawners per chunk. If you try to place a sixteenth, the placement is cancelled and you get a message with an anvil sound.

A chunk is 16×16 blocks. So if you’re planning a large spawner setup, spread it over multiple chunks — the limit applies per chunk, not per plot.

Entity Clear

Every 15 minutes the server clears certain creatures that don’t belong to anyone:

Affected: Zombies, sheep, silverfish, slimes, magma cubes.

Never affected:

• Item frames, armor stands, text displays
• All minecarts — including hopper, chest, furnace, TNT and spawner minecarts
• Tamed, named and stacked animals, Pets , bosses

Oak saplings lying on the ground are also cleared — that’s the typical tree‑farm overflow that would otherwise stay forever.

Stacking

Mobs and ground items are automatically stacked instead of existing individually. How this works — and why lava farms still payout exactly as expected — is explained under Stacker .

Collecting Items

For farms that produce faster than hoppers can pull, there’s the Chunk Hopper : a collector for the whole chunk, with filter, shredder and sorting network.

AFK

After 7 minutes of inactivity you’re considered AFK, after 15 minutes you’ll be teleported to spawn. No one gets kicked.

Important: §17 of the Rules permits automatic farms as long as you’re playing — not while you’re AFK. That’s the distinction.
