ServerUtilities (SU) is a GTNH forked mod combining FTBUtilities, FTBLibrary, and Aurora webAPI. Like its predecessors, SU focuses on extended multiplayer functions such as player ranks, chunk loading/claiming, teams, world [[#Backups|backups]], teleports and extended commands. While aimed at the needs of servers, its still commonly used in single-player as the [[chunkloading]] mod of choice. Previous users of FTBU/Lib can switch over to SU while retaining their home, warp and chunk settings, which will be automatically imported into ServerUtilites on first launch. SU does not use <code>/local/</code> for its file storage, but a similar top-level instance folder <code>/serverutilities/</code>.
==
Since 2.6.0, ServerUtilities is included in GTNH. Many features are purposefully disabled though to keep balancing intact.
Download the latest version from [https://github.com/GTNewHorizons/ServerUtilities/releases Github]. Pick the version that does not have any -source or -dev suffixes, just a plain ServerUtilities {version number}.jar file. Add the .jar to the <code>/mods/</code> folder in the instance. For servers, it must be added to both server ''and'' client-side. Players migrating from FTBUtilities & FTBLibrary should remove those mods in order to avoid issues. For Single Player, it only needs to be in the client. When properly installed, there should be new buttons to the left of the inventory GUI. Players migrating from FTBUtilities can archive their <code>/local/</code> folder after successfully running ServerUtilities and ensuring everything works as expected. There is no separate library mod needed for ServerUtilities.▼

in the <code>world</code> category to <code>true</code>. To change the maximum amount of claims/chunkloads
There are various other options in this config file to customize your overall server and what commands you want to have available. Of course some of these options will have a significant impact on balance and game experience. See [[ServerUtilities#Config Files|Config Files]] for more.
If you just want to use all of the features that SU provides you also have the option to delete the config file and restart the game. This generates a fresh config file based on the defaults in the mod instead of the modpack. Keep in mind that this will turn on SU backups and of course also affects modpack balance in various ways.

▲If you only want to use it for chunkloading you must open <code>/.minecraft/serverutilities/serverutilties.cfg</code> and turn the following settings on
▲* <code>B:chunk_claiming</code>
▲* <code>B:chunk_loading</code>
▲To change the maximum amount of claims/chunkloads find <code>B:enabled</code> under the ranks category and turn it on. Afterwards the amounts can be customized as described in [[ServerUtilities#Permissions|Permissions]]
