Added

  • JSON5 Configuration: Replaced TOML with a more flexible JSON5 format.
  • World Limits: Added global mob caps for world-wide restrictions.
  • Vanilla Despawn Control: Introduced vanilla_despawn settings (vanilla, custom, disabled) to manage mob persistence.
  • Removal Types: Added removal_type (despawn for silent removal, kill for loot drops) for both world and chunk limits.
  • Priority System: Chunk limits now follow a clear priority: specific mob → category → namespace → default.
  • Asynchronous Processing: Mob limit checks and cache updates now run asynchronously.
  • Commands:
    • Added /moblimiter info to display current settings.
    • Removed /moblimit debug and /moblimit stats for a simpler command structure.

Changed

  • Config Structure: Reworked into world_limits, chunk_limits, and vanilla_despawn sections, with the ability to enable/disable each.
  • Default Removal: Set to despawn (previously removed silently) to avoid unintended loot drops.
  • Command Namespace: Updated from /moblimit to /moblimiter for consistency.

Fixed

  • ConcurrentModificationException: Resolved crash during mob removal in high-load scenarios.
  • Config Parsing: Improved error handling for invalid mob IDs and config formats.
  • Config Duplication: Fixed duplication of config file after reloading with /moblimiter reload.

Note

  • Existing TOML configs (moblimiter.toml) must be migrated to JSON5 (moblimiter.json5). Check the new config file for updated structure and examples.
