This guide covers the minecraft.tekkit module in AlphaGSM.

Requirements

  • screen
  • Java 21 or compatible runtime
  • Python packages from requirements.txt

Quick Start

Create the server:

alphagsm mytekkit create minecraft.tekkit

Run setup:

alphagsm mytekkit setup

minecraft.tekkit is supported in ENABLED (BYO) mode. The old automatic TechnicPack page scrape is no longer reliable, so before setup or start you should either:

  • set url to a direct Tekkit server archive URL, or
  • stage Tekkit.jar directly inside <install_dir>/

Start it:

alphagsm mytekkit start

Check it:

alphagsm mytekkit status

Stop it:

alphagsm mytekkit stop

Setup Details

Setup configures:

  • the game port (default 27015)
  • the install directory

query and info use Java Edition Server List Ping (SLP) on the game port.

Suggested flow:

alphagsm mytekkit create minecraft.tekkit
alphagsm mytekkit setup -n 25565 /path/to/minecraft-tekkit --url https://example.com/Tekkit.zip
alphagsm mytekkit start

Or with a pre-staged jar:

alphagsm mytekkit create minecraft.tekkit
alphagsm mytekkit setup -n 25565 /path/to/minecraft-tekkit
## place Tekkit.jar in /path/to/minecraft-tekkit/
alphagsm mytekkit start

Resetting the World

Stop the server, then run alphagsm mymc reset-world (or wipe). AlphaGSM lists the world data to delete and asks for confirmation. Add -Y to skip the prompt. Run start afterwards to generate a fresh world.

See world creation and reset for exactly which files are removed and the supported layouts.

Useful Commands

alphagsm mytekkit update
alphagsm mytekkit backup

Notes

  • Module name: minecraft.tekkit

BYO file helper

Inspect this game's required files, source instructions and destinations with alphagsm <server-name> assets requirements; check the declared files with alphagsm <server-name> assets check. File checks do not establish game readiness. This helper checks known sentinels only and directs you to stage the complete compatible distribution manually; managed import is unavailable for this recipe. See BYO files and private SteamCMD acquisition.
