Spawn at Squid (Water Spawn Fix)
Minecraft Java mod. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeTired of searching for a way to make your favorite dino (or other mob) spawn in water?
CustomMobSpawner and NoMobSpawningOnTrees not working for water spawns?
PrehistoricSpawns wont work for water either?
Wish you could just /summon at a squid?
Then this mod is for you!
With this mod you can simply spawn the mob you want directly on Squids when they spawn.
The config has 2 parameters:
1. list of mobs to summon at the Squids, and likelyhood of spawning for each.
2. set chance of killing the Squids afterwards
sidenotes:
- I don't think the mod triggers when squids are summoned or placed in the world, just natural generation only
- Summoned mobs don't count toward the water mob cap, so I think if the squids are killed then more squids (and therefore more mobs) will spawn.
- This is my first mod. If you wanna update it for 1.16 go ahead but I dont think I'm gonna just cuz i got homework. feel free to do it yourself though its pretty small. I made it in like 4 hours
- I'm sure there's a better way to do a water spawn mod for this, maybe with some composition/wrapper class stuff, but i dont know enough about forge to say how.
