Instead of changing game mechanics or simplifying behavior, TickShield controls how work is processed per tick to prevent sudden lag spikes and TPS drops. --- ### What it does TickShield monitors server tick load in real time and keeps it within a safe range. When the game is about to overload a tick, TickShield safely delays non-critical work across multiple ticks while preserving vanilla outcomes. This results in smoother gameplay, fewer freezes, and more consistent performance. --- ### Key features - Prevents lag spikes from TNT chains, mob farms, and redstone systems - Stabilizes TPS under heavy load - Distributes workload across ticks instead of overloading a single tick - Preserves vanilla mechanics and behavior - Works in singleplayer, LAN, and dedicated servers - No configuration required --- ### Design philosophy TickShield does not change what happens in the game. It only changes when work is processed to keep performance stable. > Optimize the workload, not the outcome. --- ### Compatibility TickShield is designed to work alongside major optimization mods such as Sodium, Lithium, and Starlight. It does not replace them and focuses on a different layer of performance: tick stability. --- ### Notes - Server-side mod (also applies to singleplayer worlds) - No gameplay changes - No intrusive UI or settings required
