DynPlay

DynPlay is a mod that dynamically adjusts the server’s maximum player capacity

It is designed to keep servers stable under varying conditions by preventing overload while still allowing as many players as the hardware can handle.

DynPlay checks the CPU usage at a configurable interval and raises or lowers the player limit in real time without requiring a server restart. Server owners can define manual CPU-to-player thresholds in the configuration file or rely on the automatic logarithmic scaling system. Administrators with permission level 3 or higher can always join even when the server is at its dynamic limit.

The mod includes an in-game command system that allows operators to pause the dynamic adjustments, set a fixed player limit, or return to automatic mode. Configuration is handled through the dynplay-server.toml file, where update intervals, thresholds, and admin rules can be customized.
