SpawnerTax – Safe Spawner Mining System

⭐ SpawnerTax – Balanced and Safe Spawner Mining System
SpawnerTax is a lightweight and performance-friendly plugin designed to make mob spawner mining more balanced, safer, and more intuitive on survival servers.
It introduces a simple but effective “safe vs. natural” spawner logic without changing vanilla gameplay flow.


How It Works
Safe Spawners

• When a player places a spawner, the plugin automatically stores its coordinates as safe.
  
• A safe spawner can be mined again using a Netherite Pickaxe with Silk Touch without breaking the pickaxe.
  
• The spawner will drop with the correct mob type preserved.

Natural Spawners

• Spawners naturally generated in the world are marked as unsafe.
  
• Mining an unsafe spawner requires a Netherite Pickaxe with Silk Touch.
  
• Mining an unsafe spawner destroys the pickaxe, adding balance to spawner farming.
  
• The dropped spawner still keeps the correct mob type.

✨ Features
