CompactSpawners

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.20.2 · Quilt
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Fabric/Quilt mod, that adds automatic killing and drop storing in spawners

This mod changes the behaviour of the spawner to a fully automated killing machine. This way mobs don't spawn in the world the drops and experience are stored in the spawner.

Deprecation

This project is archived from 15/04/2024 on. This is caused by the bad implementation of this project and my lack of time. It is possible I revive this project at a later time. Feel free to fork or reimplement this project.

Interactions

Config

The mod can be configured via the mod file, which is stored in .minecraft/config/compactspawners.json, or via the configuration menu in ModMenu.

compactspawners.json
{
  "maxMergedSpawners": -1, // defines the number of spawners that can be merged into one
  "maxStoredExp": -1, // the maximum amount of experience stored in a hosting spawner
  "silkBreakSpawners": true,  // decides whether you can break a spawner with silk touch
  "requiredPlayerDistance": 32,  // the minimum player distance for the spawner to work
  "mobsPerSpawner": 4,  // defines how many mobs should spawn per spawner per period
  "luck": 1.0 // defines with what value of luck an entity should be killed inside a spawner
}

Recipes

As long as Minecraft doesn't intend to add nbt crafting, there will be no recipes provided by this mod. I hope to be able to add configurable spawner recipes in the future.

Other

⚠️ The development version is always the latest stable release of Minecraft. Therefore, new features will only be available for the current and following Minecraft versions.
