FTB OceanBlock

FTB OceanBlock drops your group into a water-world survival challenge where progression comes from creativity, automation, and steady expansion rather than traditional mining runs. You’ll build outward from safety, explore what’s below the surface, and lean heavily on guided quests to keep everyone moving toward the next milestone—perfect for co-op servers that want structure without feeling railroaded.

• Purpose-built modpack installs with one-click deployment and quick, clean updates that keep your config changes intact
• High, stable tick-rate under automation thanks to native CPU performance on our hybrid VPS platform
• Easy scaling for groups—from a few friends to a busy community—with predictable performance headroom
• Faster troubleshooting using built-in lag diagnostics so you can fix the cause, not just reboot
• Reliable protection and uptime for long-running worlds, shared bases, and always-on progression

A High-Level Overview of FTB OceanBlock

OceanBlock is an “island-style” experience with a very different feel: instead of a tiny patch of land in an empty void, your world is defined by ocean and what you can extract, recycle, and automate from it. Progress is designed to be step-by-step and goal-driven, with questing acting as the backbone for both solo and multiplayer play.

Because everyone tends to work in the same general area early on, OceanBlock naturally encourages:

• Shared starter infrastructure (storage, processing, and power)
• Role-based teamwork (builders, explorers, automation specialists)
• A single hub base that grows into multiple outposts as the server matures

Why CreeperHost is a strong fit (early on)

Ocean-style packs often concentrate players and machines into fewer chunks. That makes CPU consistency and quick issue diagnosis more important than raw “big number” specs—and that’s exactly where our modded hosting experience shines.

Hosting Considerations for FTB OceanBlock

OceanBlock servers typically run smoothly when a few common patterns are planned for upfront:

Memory use: steady, then spiky

Modded servers generally have a baseline RAM requirement that rises as players build, explore, and automate. In OceanBlock, RAM pressure can spike during:

• Heavy chunk activity around a central base
• Large storage networks and frequent item movement
• Automation chains running 24/7

For most groups, choosing a plan with comfortable headroom beats running “right on the edge,” especially once multiple players start scaling up systems at the same time.

CPU load: automation is the real cost

OceanBlock gameplay tends to evolve into “more machines, more often.” The biggest performance hits usually come from:

• High-frequency item/fluid transfers
• Many machines ticking in a small area
• Mob farms or entity-heavy builds

Spreading out the busiest contraptions and keeping entity counts under control will usually keep TPS stable, even as the base expands.

World management: exploration still matters

Even in ocean-forward packs, players will explore. New areas mean new chunks, new structures, and more ongoing background activity if players don’t log out in a controlled spot. For healthier performance:

• Encourage players to return to base before logging off
• Avoid leaving far-away loaders active unless needed
• Keep a simple policy for high-entity farms in shared areas

Why CreeperHost is well-suited for OceanBlock

We’ve hosted modded communities for over a decade, and OceanBlock-style packs tend to reward stability and operational tooling more than anything else.

Built for consistent modded performance

Our hybrid VPS platform delivers native CPU performance and stability—ideal for packs where automation and concentrated bases define the late game. With modern, liquid-cooled Ryzen/EPYC/Intel Ultra hardware tuned for modded workloads, you get dependable tick performance when the server is busiest.

Modpack updates without the usual headaches

OceanBlock servers often accumulate carefully tuned configs as your community settles in. Our one-click modpack installation and updates are designed to preserve your changes, so you can stay current without constantly rebuilding your setup.

Practical tools when something feels “laggy”

Lag in modded isn’t always obvious. CreeperHost includes built-in tooling to diagnose performance issues, helping you pinpoint problem areas (hot chunks, entity build-up, runaway machines) and fix them quickly—so your server stays playable without turning maintenance into a nightly routine.
