So, I know this is probably going to be a very vague question, but I'm looking at buying a dedicated Minecraft server for me and a few University friends. Probably going to be no more then 5-10 people online at any one time.
Basically I had a few questions about buying a server, I did a search but couldn't find any of these answers here.
1. How much RAM should I be looking for in my server? Most hosts seem to suggest about 512MB for 10 people, but I'm not sure if Tekkit requires more then the reccomended.
2. Do I need to find a server host that specifically hosts Tekkit installs? I found one, Treepuncher, who charges extra for the Tekkit install, and doesn't show how much RAM they are giving me, but they have a host in Australia which I need. Or does any host that allow FTP mean I can install Tekkit myself?
3. Is there anything else I should know before committing to buying a server? I'm sure the good Technic community has advice they would love to share :D
