Introducing Nodecraft Lite - Budget Server Hosting
Our new product, Nodecraft Lite, offers the same high-quality server hosting experience at lower costs.
Unlike Nodecraft Pro game servers that run 24/7, Nodecraft Lite Servers are only online when players actively use them.
Server owners are given a password-protected Wake & Play Share Link to share with anyone to wake the server from hibernation.
For a full list of feature differences between our Pro and Lite packages, check out the chart above labeled "Budget or Premium?".

What is an instance?
Nodecraft allows users to save and swap between games and modpacks by utilizing the server instances available to each plan. These instances can be thought of like save slots that are able to hold a game server's files in a saved state for you to pop back into your server to play later.

Nodecraft does not limit player slots on your server, so you can have as many player slots as the game allows!
