CreeperHost offers the tools you need to run your dream Jaffa Factory 2 server!
Host your Jaffa Factory 2 server
Jaffa Factory 2 is a modern Forge 1.20.1 tech-focused pack built around the simple idea of one big goal: automate Jaffa Cake production—then keep scaling the factory until it becomes a sprawling, belt-driven, power-hungry masterpiece. It’s designed to match the feel of the Yogscast series, so it naturally rewards teamwork, specialization, and “let’s rebuild it bigger” moments.
- Reliable performance for automation-heavy bases on our liquid-cooled Ryzen/EPYC/Intel Ultra hardware
- One-click install & painless updates that help keep your configs intact as the pack iterates
- Hybrid VPS stability that handles long-running factories and always-on worlds smoothly
- Built-in lag diagnostics to track down misbehaving contraptions, chunkloaders, or runaway machines
- 13+ years hosting modded communities—we know what happens when the factory “just needs one more line”
What is Jaffa Factory 2?
At its core, Jaffa Factory 2 is about factory progression and automation, with plenty of room for creative engineering. Expect the typical rhythm of a great tech pack:
- Start small with manual production
- Move into repeatable, automated processing
- Scale into multi-stage assembly lines
- Add storage and logistics so the base stays maintainable
Because the end goal is production at scale, most servers naturally evolve into a shared “industrial district” where players divide up tasks—resource gathering, power, transport, processing, and final assembly.
Why CreeperHost is a great fit (before you even launch)
Built for long-running factories
A pack like this tends to produce worlds that stay online for weeks or months. CreeperHost’s Hybrid VPS platform is designed for consistent, stable performance—ideal when your server becomes more factory than “survival world.”
One-click setup that stays out of your way
Jaffa Factory 2 is easiest when everyone is on the same version with the same modpack files. Our one-click modpack installation gets you running quickly, and our update approach is designed to reduce the usual pain around preserving the server’s working configuration.
Hosting Considerations for Jaffa Factory 2
Jaffa Factory 2 is the kind of pack where server load typically ramps up over time. Early game is light; mid/late game is where you’ll feel it.
Memory (RAM) patterns you should expect
Automation packs commonly become RAM-sensitive as players add more machines, storage networks, and always-on systems.
- Small groups (2–4 players): typically comfortable starting around 6–8GB
- Medium groups (5–10 players): often happiest around 8–12GB
- Larger or very automation-heavy servers: plan 12GB+, especially if players build multiple large production sites
If you’re unsure, start reasonable and scale up—factories grow fast once everyone finds their lane.
CPU and tick-time load
The biggest performance pressure usually comes from:
- Large numbers of active machines/processing blocks
- Moving entities or item throughput (especially when bases scale)
- Chunkloading and “always on” production areas
If your group loves leaving everything running 24/7, prioritizing solid CPU performance matters as much as RAM.
Practical server rules that prevent lag spirals
A few simple expectations keep servers healthy:
- Centralize big production where possible (fewer always-ticking zones)
- Avoid “infinite overflow” setups (backed-up outputs cause hidden load)
- Build with maintenance in mind—clear routing, labeled lines, and controlled chunkloading
Why host Jaffa Factory 2 on CreeperHost?
Hardware that favors modded Minecraft
Modded servers benefit from strong single-thread performance and stable sustained clocks. Our liquid-cooled Ryzen/EPYC/Intel Ultra fleet is tuned for exactly that “factory base at midnight” workload.
Tools that help you fix problems fast
When a server starts feeling sluggish, you don’t want guesswork. CreeperHost includes built-in tooling to diagnose lag so you can identify what changed, what’s spiking tick time, and where to focus cleanup.
Hands-on experience with how modded packs evolve
After 13+ years hosting large modded communities, we’ve seen the full lifecycle: the first starter base, the first “temporary” mega-factory, and the third rebuild that finally sticks. If you’re building a Jaffa empire with friends, we’re set up to keep it running smoothly as it scales.
