# Server Configuration

Once the server is up and running, there usually a handful of mod settings we like to tweak.

### Additional Mods

#### AE2Things

I'm always adding this mod. Screw type-limits on drives.

#### Chunky

The [**Chunky**](https://modrinth.com/plugin/chunky) mod allows you to pre-generate world chunks to speed up exploration later!

#### SimpleBackups

If the modpack does not include a backup mod, include this.

### Mod Configurations

#### Applied Energistics

Channels are ... fun? Sometimes. Not always, so we often turn them off.

- `config/ae2-common.toml`
    - `channels = "INFINITE"`

#### FTB Chunks

This setting led to crashes in ATM10 (may be fixed now?)

- `world/serverconfig/ftbchunks-world.snbt`
    - `piston_protection: false`

### Modpack Configurations

#### ATM10

They took away the anchor upgrades for Mekanism?!? Nope!

- `kubejs/server_scripts/mods/Mekanism/Recipes.js`
    - `// allthemods.remove({ id: 'mekanism:upgrade/anchor' })`

#### Other Configurations

- config/easy\_villagers-server.toml 
    - sound\_amount = 400
- config/ftbessentials.snbt 
    - cooldown: 0
