The author built this one for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.

Difficulty Scaling
Mobs become stronger based on distance from spawn (0, 0)/custom spawn:
- Health, Damage, Armor, and Speed (lol) all scale

- Toggle which of the stats you actually want to scale.
- Default: +100% stats per 1000 blocks
- Caps at 5x by default
- Example: At 3000 blocks, a zombie has 80 HP instead of 20 HP

XP Scaling
Mobs drop more experience the further from spawn:
- Default: +100% XP per 1000 blocks
- Caps at 10x by default
- Rewards risky exploration

Entity Spawn Restrictions
Block specific mobs or entire mods from spawning near spawn:
- Support for wildcards: modid:*entity*@distance
- Restrict individual entities or entire mods
- Perfect for gating dangerous mobs by distance

Structure Generation Restrictions
Prevent structures from generating near spawn:
- Same wildcard support as entities
- Separate from entity restrictions

Custom Spawn Points
Choose where difficulty scaling begins:
- Use a structure as the center point (e.g., village, stronghold)
- Or set manual coordinates
- Distance calculations adapt automatically

Config file location: config/distantdangers-common.toml

Created for use with an RPG modpack I'm working on!
