+## Optional projects
+
+Projects that are not critical for the server to function can be marked as **optional** by appending a `?` to the project slug or ID. When a compatible version cannot be found for an optional project, the server logs a warning and continues startup instead of failing.
+
+This is particularly useful for server-side mods that tend to lag behind on Minecraft updates, such as map renderers (Pl3xmap, BlueMap), performance mods (Lithium, C2ME), or admin tools (Spark, LuckPerms).
+
+```yaml
+      MODRINTH_PROJECTS: |
+        fabric-api
+        lithium
+        pl3xmap?
+        bluemap?:beta
+```
+
+The `?` marker can be combined with all existing format options:
+
+| Format                     | Example                   |
+|----------------------------|---------------------------|
+| Slug only                  | `pl3xmap?`                |
+| With version               | `pl3xmap?:Oa9ZDzZq`      |
+| With release type          | `pl3xmap?:beta`           |
+| With loader prefix         | `fabric:pl3xmap?`         |
+| Full combination           | `fabric:pl3xmap?:beta`    |
+| In listing files           | `pl3xmap?` *(one per line)* |
+
+When combined with [`VERSION_FROM_MODRINTH_PROJECTS`](#version-from-projects), optional projects are **excluded** from the version calculation. This means an optional mod that hasn't been updated yet will never block a Minecraft version upgrade.

 When the environment variable `VERSION_FROM_MODRINTH_PROJECTS` is set to "true" the Minecraft [`VERSION`](../versions/minecraft.md) will be automatically determined by looking at the most recent version of Minecraft that is supported by all the projects provided in `MODRINTH_PROJECTS`.

 Notes
 
-1. Why no arm64 for Java 17 Alpine? That is because the base images, such as [elipse-temurin](https://hub.docker.com/_/eclipse-temurin/tags?page=&page_size=&ordering=&name=17-jre-alpine) do not provide support for that. Use the Ubuntu-based images instead.
-2. Short-term variant, subject to deprecation upon next version introduction
-3. Based on the [Oracle GraalVM images](https://blogs.oracle.com/java/post/new-oracle-graalvm-container-images), which as of JDK 17, are now under the [GraalVM Free License](https://blogs.oracle.com/java/post/graalvm-free-license) incorporating what used to be known as the GraalVM Enterprise.
-4. This version of Java is [recommended for PaperMC 1.16.5](https://docs.papermc.io/paper/getting-started/#requirements)
-5. Due to these images using Oracle Linux, (which is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux) Forge Installer will not work due to its use of zlib-ng. Use other images for initial installation and Forge version upgrade.
