Quick FAQ

Logo important?
Helps recognition.
Rebrand often?
Avoid frequent changes.

Key takeaways

  • Focus on the basics of branding first, then add advanced tweaks when stable.
  • Measure results (TPS, memory, player feedback) before and after any branding change.
  • Document your branding decisions so you can troubleshoot faster later.
  • Start simple: change one setting at a time and test.
  • Keep backups before major changes (updates, plugins, or modpacks).

Practical checklist

  1. Write the goal of this change in one sentence (what should improve?).
  2. Set one metric (player retention, crash rate, join success, etc.).
  3. Make the smallest change that can prove your idea.
  4. Share the outcome with your community and iterate.

Tip: if you get stuck, check FAQ and the Status page.
