Clumps

by lullaby

With Clumps installed on a server, nearby experience orbs merge into fewer entities, which cuts down on the lag they can cause.

What it does

Clumps is a server-side optimization mod. It groups experience orbs that sit close together into a single orb, reducing the number of entities the server has to track. The mod has an optional instant pickup setting for experience orbs, and the author notes that this setting does not work with the Mending enchantment.

Key features

  1. Orb merging

    Experience orbs that land near each other combine into one orb, lowering the entity count on busy servers.

  2. Instant pickup option

    An optional setting lets players collect experience orbs the moment they touch them.

  3. Mending incompatibility

    The instant pickup option is not compatible with the Mending enchantment, so it should stay off on servers that use it.
