ArcadiaTweaks
by Blushister
ArcadiaTweaks is a NeoForge server-side optimization mod that applies Mixin-based patches to speed up large modded servers, mainly those running BotanyPots farms.
What it does
Installed on a server, the mod adds five strategies that target the BotanyPotBlockEntity tickPot method, which is the costliest path in large BotanyPots farms. It also includes server-side optimizations for other modded machines and storage systems, using tick coalescing and hopper backoff, along with further strategies. Each domain is a separate module that can be switched off from one top-level setting, and every Mixin path has a dedicated boolean in the TOML configuration file.
The mod was written for the Arcadia modpack and works without changing any public API, recipe or registry. Its reflection patches and AccessTransformers reach beyond what NeoForge provides, and every strategy has a kill-switch. The default priority is 1000, and the patches only touch stable internal classes, so other addons are not affected. The mod is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, and clients need nothing: it is server-side only and released under the MIT License, so it is open source with public source code and an issue tracker.
Key features
Five farm strategies
Five server-side strategies target the tickPot path used by large BotanyPots farms.
Machine and storage patches
Mixin optimizations also cover other modded machines and storage systems, including tick coalescing and hopper backoff.
Per-path kill-switches
Every strategy and Mixin path has its own boolean in the configuration file, so each one can be turned off alone.
Optional BotanyPots support
When BotanyPots is absent, the botany Mixins stay dormant and the mod still loads cleanly.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Large BotanyPots farms
Servers with many BotanyPots pots gain most from the tickPot strategies, since that method is the costly path in those farms.
Arcadia modpack servers
The patches were tuned for the Arcadia modpack, where the optimizations are meant to run as part of the pack.
Who it’s for: Server owners running NeoForge 1.21.1 who want to reduce tick cost from BotanyPots farms and other modded machines. Players need nothing installed on their own side.
