What is MobManager?
MobManager is a powerful yet lightweight plugin designed for server administrators who want complete, per-world control over the entire mob ecosystem. This tool allows you to fine-tune your server's difficulty, create unique biome-specific challenges, or completely redesign your worlds by swapping mobs—all powered by simple commands and a flexible, hierarchical configuration file.
Key Features
-
✨ Per-World Control: Don't settle for one-size-fits-all settings. Configure everything on a per-world basis! Make the Nether brutally difficult while keeping a peaceful spawn in your main world. Any setting can be configured globally and then overridden for specific worlds.
-
🔄 Mob Swapping: Unleash your creativity by replacing any naturally spawning mob with another. Make Skeletons that spawn in the Nether become Wither Skeletons, have Spiders in caves be replaced by Cave Spiders, or turn peaceful Cows into Ravagers for a surprise challenge! This can be enabled and configured per-world.
-
⚙️ Fine-Tune Spawn Rates: Use a simple multiplier (e.g., 0.5 for 50%, 2.0 for 200%) to increase or decrease the spawn chance of any mob, either globally or in specific worlds.
-
🚫 Disable Any Mob: Completely prevent specific mobs from spawning naturally. This is perfect for creating unique gameplay experiences or simply getting rid of unwanted creatures, with per-world precision.
-
⌨️ Comprehensive In-Game Commands: Manage everything on the fly with the
/mobspawn
command and its powerful sub-commands (set
,enable
,swap
, etc.). Target global settings or specific worlds directly in-game with no restarts needed. -
📄 Flexible & Hierarchical Configuration: The powerful
config.yml
is built on a clear parent-child structure. Set base rules inglobal-settings
and create specific exceptions inworld-settings
for ultimate control. -
🚀 Lightweight & Performant: MobManager is built to be efficient. It has a minimal impact on server performance, working by listening for natural spawn events without running any heavy, persistent tasks.
Design Philosophy
The philosophy behind MobManager is to provide administrators with total, granular control over their server's mob ecosystem. While powerful, it maintains a user-friendly approach through intuitive commands and a clearly structured configuration, allowing for both simple tweaks and complex overhauls.
