Just host the game on a stronger PC or limit the number of players. Terraria isn't too demanding, but if your setup is running a potato, you're gonna have a bad time.

Honestly, sometimes the best fix is to just restart the server. If it's been up for a long time, things start to get wonky. A quick reboot can do wonders for reducing lag!

Turn off frame skip in the settings! It might make the game look a tad choppier, but it really helps with the lag, especially in multiplayer.

Lag in Terraria multiplayer can often be fixed by ensuring both the host and players have a stable internet connection. Try using wired connections instead of Wi-Fi if possible, as it provides a more stable connection. Another tip is to make sure the host's computer is powerful enough to handle the server, especially if there are a lot of players or extensive constructions. Finally, reduce the number of active mods, as too many can strain the server and cause lag.
