You now have total control over your mobs! Create rules to change every aspect of your mobs. Want to give more (or reduce) XP? Add more health? Block mobs completely? Why not! It's your modpack, you decide what your mobs can do. How about adding custom AI for advanced mobs? Yes, you can set AI on any mob to provide a more custom experience in your modpack! With Mod Control, you can upgrade mobs to have increased health, damage, and new abilities or behaviors, making encounters more intense and strategic. Overall, you have total control to tailor the survival experience! --- Features --- - Block spawning of any mob - Increase the spawn rate of any mob - Control which dimensions a mob will spawn - Control which biomes a mob will spawn - Control which structures a mob will spawn - Spawn mobs on certain days - Spawn mobs in certain weather - Spawn mobs at certain times of the day - Spawn mobs at certain light levels - Define how many mobs per mob - Define how many mobs per player - Define how many mobs spawn per condition - Set the distance a mob will spawn from a player - Control the y-axis - Set the mobs loot drops - Give the mobs armor and weapons - Add AI - Give mobs the ability to break blocks - Give mobs the ability to climb - Give mobs the ability to pillar up - Give mobs the ability to plant trees - Give mobs the ability to plant flowers - Give mobs the ability to cut grass - Give mobs the ability to eat plants - Make eating plants heal mobs - Set the amount of damage a mob will do - Make mobs burn in the sun or not - Make mobs always hostile or remove hostility towards player / other mobs - Make mobs hostile when hurt - When hurt, defined if only the hurt mob attacks or others as well - Define ability to use a leash on mobs - Change max health, speed, follow range, knockback, size, and other attributes - Give mobs a name and show it always or upon looking at the mob - ...and much more! --- Configuration ---

This rule attempts to explain each of the # parameters with their various intricacies. If we can better word or explain a # parameter, then let us know. ################################################################################ # [[mob]] - Defines the mob and holds one or more [[mob.rules]]. ################################################################################ [[mob]] # name is the mod and mob to control. # Required # Type: String or Array of Strings # Syntax: "mod:mob" or "mod:*" or "*:*" or "*" # NOTE: Use * for a wildcard match. # Examples: # "*" # "minecraft:zombie" # "minecraft:*" # ["minecraft:skeleton", "minecraft:creeper", "custom:*"] name="mod:mob" ################################################################################ # [[mob.rule]] -

Blocks the mob from spawning. # all - Applies to all sources (control, natural, spawner, etc.). # control - Similar to natural, but uses repeat option to force spawning for # complete control. # natural - Applies to naturally spawning mobs, ignoring the repeat option. # spawner - Applies to spawners (monster spawners and trial spawners). # Trial spawners ignore repeat option. # Examples: # type="all" # type="spawner" type="all" # run is the probability to spawn. # Optional, defaulting to 100, which will always match # Type: Numeric, between 0 and 100 run=50 # repeat is the number of ticks before allowing the rule to run again. # Optional, defaulting to 0 for control and [200,800] for spawners # Type: Numeric or Range # NOTE: 20 ticks is 1 real world second. # NOTE: Natural spawning mobs ignore the repeat and use vanilla logic. # Examples: # 300 = 15 real world seconds # 1200 = 1 real world minute # 24000 = 20 real world minutes (1 day in game) # 72000 = 1 real world hour (3 days in game) # [200,800] = A random amount between 10 real world seconds to 40 real world # seconds repeat=[200,800] ################################################################################ # CONDITIONS -
