A long-term GTNH world for industry, automation and controlled chaos.
Forged not in some shining datacenter, but reclaimed from the edge of oblivion,
this machine began its second life as discarded hardware. What others saw as e-waste,
I saw as potential: an aging HP ProDesk 400, pulled from the trash and given a new purpose
to host a brutal, beautiful GTNH world.
GregTech: New Horizons is a huge expert-style Minecraft modpack where progression is
slow, deliberate and deeply technical. Almost everything is part of a larger chain.
Progression: long-term, tier-based and grindy in the best/worst way.
Focus: automation, power, chemistry, logistics and survival.
The machine
Since then, it has been upgraded piece by piece, like a tech-priest restoring an ancient relic.
Slowly, stubbornly, and with just enough madness to make it work.
But in all seriousness: this GTNH server runs on an HP ProDesk 400 that was genuinely saved from the trash.
Yes, really: it has been slowly upgraded over time into a surprisingly capable server.
The vibe
The server is meant to be practical, relaxed and slightly cursed. If a machine explodes,
a pipe clogs, or power dies again, that is not a bug. That is GregTech doing GregTech things.
Rule one: automate it.
Rule two: then automate the thing that automates it.
Server basics
Do not grief or destroy other players' builds.
Do not intentionally create lag machines.
Ask before building very close to someone else's base.
Clean up temporary messes where possible.
Admins are friendly until you give them a reason not to be. Act like an asshole and you can expect the same energy back, followed by a ban.
If something breaks, blame GregTech first, then investigate properly.
