Ah, there’s the bottleneck—the whole system only has about 4 GB of RAM to play with. Since AMP, the OS, and Minecraft are all fighting for memory, it’s not surprising the server is face-planting with exit code 137. ![]()
Aternos probably stabilizes things with some super-tight optimization magic that AMP doesn’t replicate out-of-the-box. For a smoother run:
-
Lower your Minecraft memory allocation:
- Head to your Minecraft server settings in AMP.
- Search for “Java and Memory” (it’s buried somewhere, I swear—AMP loves a scavenger hunt
). - Reduce the Maximum Memory (Xmx) to 2.5 or 2 GB to leave some room for the OS and AMP itself.
-
Disable unnecessary plugins: Some aren’t much of a drain, but even basic ones like Geyser or SkinsRestorer chew RAM.
-
Optimize server settings:
Use AMP’s UI config to tweak things like render distance or entity tick limits for lower memory usage.
Give that a go. If it still nukes itself, we might need to consider slicing out plugins or expanding your RAM setup because 4 GB can only stretch so far! ![]()
