📋 About This Mod
Makes your server run smoothly.
Description
This plugin has THREE levels that each make your server more lightweight to run by smoothly removing unused ZDOS. You can choose how aggressively the plugin removes these ZDOS. The lowest level is for servers that are run by only maybe few friends, the medium level is for casual servers and the highest tier makes sure the world size and load times do not get way too big if your server has a lot of builds or other similar things.
