The server stats panel on a Hytale server displays performance and resource usage data. Monitoring metrics such as CPU, memory, network, and disk space allows for the identification of potential bottlenecks. These figures show how the server handles world data and player activity in real-time. Keeping these levels within stable ranges ensures the game runs at its intended speed for all users. Consistent oversight of this information helps maintain a stable environment and prevents technical issues.

How to Read the Server Stats Panel on a Hytale Server
CPU
The CPU metric measures the percentage of the server's processor being utilized. In Hytale, usage is primarily driven by world generation and the pathfinding logic for NPCs. High CPU usage occurs when many players explore new areas simultaneously or when complex scripts run.
Memory
Memory usage tracks the amount of RAM occupied by the server. This is primarily determined by the view distance settings and the number of chunks loaded in the world. If memory usage reaches its maximum capacity, the server may experience performance drops while attempting to clear old data.
Network
Network usage monitors the speed of data transfer between the server and connected players. This includes the bandwidth required to stream world data, player movements, and modded assets. Usage increases when many players are active or when they are moving quickly through different zones.
Disk Usage
Disk usage is the amount of physical storage space occupied by the server’s files. This total includes world data, installed mods, player save files, and system logs. As players build more structures or explore further, the size of these files on the storage drive will increase.
TPS (Ticks Per Second)
TPS measures the frequency of the game’s internal simulation cycles. While Hytale is designed to target 30 TPS for peak performance, optimization plugins can stabilize the experience at 20 TPS by utilizing the game’s client prediction systems. This lower cap reduces server load while maintaining fluid movement and player responsiveness.
Loaded Chunks
This stat shows the number of chunks currently active in the server's memory. Hytale only loads the specific cubes near a player. This number will fluctuate based on the number of players online and their distance from one another.
Loaded Entities
The entities count represents all dynamic objects currently active in the game world. This includes players, animals, monsters, and items dropped on the ground. A high entity count requires more processing power because the server must calculate the physics and behavior for every individual object.
