NewStoria 26.3 is out

The finest server software. Zero stutter.

Storia is a Minecraft server that runs one world on several machines at once. Players cross from server to server without a loading screen, and redstone never stops.

Storia Cluster

One world, many servers.

Folia splits a world across the cores of one machine. Storia splits it across machines. When your players outgrow one server, add another: they keep playing in the same world.

Seamless moves need Minecraft 26.1 or 26.2 clients. Back up your world before you move it into a cluster.

Running one server now? How to move to a cluster

Automatic placement

Every part of the world where people play is given to a server. Players who meet end up on the same one; busy servers hand work to quiet ones.

No loading screen

Crossing to another server keeps the connection. Inventory, advancements and statistics come along.

Contraptions stay whole

Redstone and machines on the border between two parts are found and always run on one server.

Stop a server, nobody is kicked

/stop moves its players to the other servers first. If the coordinator blinks, writes wait on disk.

On a single server, too

Fast even on one machine

Without a cluster, these still work on every Storia server. Each one keeps vanilla behavior: the same terrain for the same seed, the same physics, and redstone that never stops.

RAM world

Worlds live in memory

Worlds are copied into RAM at startup and synced back to disk in the background, so disk speed stops mattering.

RAM world: enabled
RAM used: 3187 MB
Sync interval: 300 s
Last sync: 2m 14s ago (184 file(s))
Pregeneration

Five times faster pregen

/storia pregen puts every spare core to work and picks up where it left off after a restart.

How it works

3,721 chunks on 6 cores. Lower is better.

Tick guard

A busy spawn, smooth for you

When a farm or a crowd overloads an area, Storia thins out the crowd's thinking, not the players. People standing nearby are never limited.

Spawn with 1,400 mobs: 55 ms → 33 ms per tick, TPS 20. Nobody limited.

Player budget

Only the fast flier waits

While an area is busy, players flying faster than 12 blocks/s get a shorter view until they slow down. People who stand, build or walk there are never limited.
