Adrenaline

by FlyInMyEye

Adrenaline speeds up world generation on Forge servers by running chunk generation in parallel across configurable worker threads.

ForgeServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.20.6

What it does

Adrenaline targets the cost of creating new terrain. Instead of leaving most of Minecraft's generation steps as they are, it replaces some of the slower ones with faster code and spreads chunk generation over several threads. Worldgen toggles let a server owner choose which terrain, surface, noise, aquifer, beardifier and ore vein steps are optimized.

The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it is published for Forge alone. Its files cover 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 0.1.2.4 for 1.20.6 as the latest release. It requires DataFly Lib and Fly's config lib, and it is released under the MIT License as open source. Built jars are produced from the build/libs folder.

Key features

  1. Parallel chunk generation

    Chunks are generated in parallel, and the number of worker threads can be set in the configuration.

  2. Worldgen optimization toggles

    Separate switches cover terrain, fill, surface noise, aquifers, beardifier and ore veins, so each step can be turned on or off.

  3. Feature safety radius

    A safety radius controls how features are placed, keeping placement safer when modded worldgen is installed.

  4. Statistics overlay and logging

    A worldgen statistics overlay and debug logging are available in development builds for inspecting generation work.

Use cases

Large pre-generated worlds

Servers that generate large areas of terrain can use the parallel chunk setting to shorten the time spent creating new chunks.

Modpacks with many worldgen mods

The feature safety radius and compatibility handling help the mod coexist with other worldgen additions.

Who it’s for: Server owners who run Forge and want faster terrain creation. Players only need the mod on the server.
