What's the over under on a modpack for the non-anarchy server? They seem to largely come with land claim built in (with a visual system to see what chunks are taken), and even if it's a fairly light pack, Chisel 2 and whatever replaced carpenter blocks would give a million times the capability to build.
If you want to start suggesting shit now's the time to do it.
I've got better Internet now so I'm taking today to update the MATI site and add old episodes t the podcast feed. I'll work on MC later (either tonight or tomorrow, probably tomorrow).
I generally play with mod packs. If you go with an already established mod pack (easiest method), you'll be hard pressed to find a good one that isn't loaded down with 100+ mods. That many mods kills performance. I don't even know how that would work with a server with 20-40 people logged in. You're having issues with TPS with a vanilla server, fuck, 100 mods will melt your server.
If you want to go the harder route of a custom modded server, it's going to be harder for the users to get that rolling. Taking vanilla and adding mods is a pain in the ass and you likely won't be able to do it for 1.16.1 because it's likely very few mods even have support for it yet. You'll have to run an older version of MC.
Depending on the mods you run, you'll also run into issues with things like duplicate ore gen. It's very easy to get two mods that each add their own copper ore. One may even have a built in function to use the others, but the other may not so you can only use the copper ore it adds for it. You can usually do custom configs to make them each only use one, but it's a pain and time consuming to set that up yourself. That's where, again, already established mod packs make it so much easier.
If you do decide to go modded, I humbly present these as must have mods:
1.
JourneyMap - Fantastic mini-map/fullscreen map. Also has a server component so anyone can view the map in real time and see where players are in the world using a browser.
Doesn't support 1.16.1 yet. Last version is for 1.15.2 and that's a beta. Last non-beta is for 1.12.
2.
Iron Chests - Upgrades beyond wooden chests for increased storage. Copper (if copper ore is present through another mod) -> Iron -> Silver -> Diamond/Obsidian/Crystal. The last stage has 108 storage slots, that's the same as two vanilla larges but in a 1x1 area instead of 2x1.
Does support 1.16.1.
3.
Tinker's Construct - Better tools and weapons including a hammer that can mine up to a 3x3 area. Makes digging large tunnels fast. Adds a couple nether ores that allow for super durable tools/weapons.
Does not support 1.16.1. Latest is for 1.12.
Honestly, to get a good selection of mods, you'll have to roll back to Minecraft version 1.12.
