CodellaStacker is a lightweight and powerful Spigot/Paper plugin designed to significantly improve server performance by stacking nearby mobs into a single entity. It's perfect for servers with large mob farms or high entity counts, reducing lag while keeping gameplay balanced and configurable.
Features
Automatic Mob Stacking: Automatically detects and stacks mobs of the same type within a configurable radius.
Performance Boost: Drastically reduces the number of entities on your server, leading to lower CPU usage and a smoother experience for players.
Stacking Threshold: Set a minimum number of mobs required to create a stack, preventing small groups from being merged unnecessarily.
Configurable Blacklist: Easily prevent specific mobs (like Villagers, Golems, or any mob you choose) from ever being stacked.
Custom Stack Names: Customize the nameplate of stacked mobs using placeholders for the mob type and stack count (e.g., "Zombie x15").
Simple Commands: In-game commands to view stacking statistics and reload the configuration without a server restart.
Highly Configurable: Every major feature, from stacking radius to name formats, can be easily adjusted in the config.yml file.
