~50 player event, most reasonable host?
I have a restricted island, about 2000x2000, and probably somewhere around 50 players. Optimized as much as reasonably possible (Paper, no natural entity spawning, no explosions, pre-gen) -- standard plugins, anti xray, anti-cheat, zoning, perms, factions.
How.. low can I dip before it affects gameplay? I imagine the minimum to be Ryzen 5 5600 16gb RAM? Any hosts in mind, or specific hardware comments would be appreciated
Most importantly, the event will only last 3 days, need some buffer days for testing and all but really only looking at a maximum of 6 days of rental.
Would host this myself but my server is only an I5 :^

winternode can probably handle this, especially since its a small pregenned area
Doesn't seem like they do weekly/daily pricings
Solution
your best bet is hetzner and their hourly vms
I just don't like the setup fees on the Ax series, any others you recommend?
vms, not dedicated servers
there also is server auction
which has no setup fees afaik
I'll check them out, thanks
Would you say 16 or 32gb RAM?
cpu matters more than ram, 16 is more than enough
Oh actually Hetzner right
Do they even do 16gb lol
Right, I meant in the auction, thanks for the help
ah
welp
Actually wait a second, Hetzner Cloud tentatively supports US now right? Don't see that option in the location dropdown though
Is there some beta link I need to sign-up for or is it redacted for now
My player base is entirely in NA, germany is a bit far
Oh the AMD ones are US-permitted anyways nevermind thanks
