Auto Restarts

When the server runs out of RAM, frequent lags or even crashes can occur. However, this issue can be efficiently addressed by periodically restarting your server.
Important: Regularly restarting your server helps clear out unnecessary and outdated data accumulated from player disconnections, chunks, entities, and other sources, allowing the RAM used by Minecraft to refresh and optimize its performance.
