Even though Minecraft is already a real success in its raw form (vanilla version), the need for further improvements was there from the very beginning. Mods are player-oriented additions to video games.

Jackson's post goes into more detail on exciting aspects like "real-time block synchronisation", message brokers and the future potential for Minecraft mini-games created in World QL's scripting environment (because, by default, they'll be able to take advantage of the player scaling.) Here is Mammoth's github page.On this page you will learn the following about Minecraft mods: These changes are indexed by chunk coordinate and time, so a Minecraft server can request only the updates it needs since it last synced a chunk." All block changes from the base seed are centrally stored in WorldQL. "In Mammoth, no single Minecraft server is responsible for storing the world. So: the new version of Mammoth, which is due to release on September 8, is built on World QL which stores "all permanent world changes and pass real-time player information (such as location) between servers." Basically, each server is constantly reporting its data to World QL, which is then asking questions of other servers based on these reports: if it knows one player is near another, and the first player's server says they've moved, WorldQL asks what the other one is doing. However, it had too many issues: players couldn't see each other 'across' servers, one server going down rendered that portion of the world inaccessible, and fundamentally the solution didn't solve anything if lots of players congregated in a small area. The first attempt, as Roberts explains, was a proof-of-concept system that chopped up a Minecraft world into 1024 blocks which were each run by their own server: the border areas synchronised and servers transferred moving objects between one another. Minecraft's existing single-threaded server software clearly wasn't up to the job so Roberts and collaborator Harvey298 decided they would work out how to build their own, calling the project Mammoth. This just wasn't good enough for coder Jackson Roberts, who at the beginning of 2020 wanted a lockdown project, and decided to create a gigantic Minecraft server that could host thousands of players without lag. The 'world record' for concurrent Minecraft players in a single world is 2622, a messy accomplishment where none of those players was able to actually do anything but, hey, they were there.
