The mod also includes new items and tools, such as Slingshots, Spider Spray and even new types of food. Explore the new Spider Cave biome! A dark, web-filled environment crawling with eggs, webs, and lurking spiders, hiding valuable loot within.

● Important FaQ
Spoiler
► [OLD] What is my console spaming?
Most mobs use special spawning conditions, which means that these mobs can only appear under certain conditions. If the spawning conditions work, this spam is created in the console.
► Why are features missing in different versions?
It is recommended to play the newest versions of higher minecraft versions.
Not all features of MCreator available or the same in different versions. For example: Version 1.19.2 doesn't have the feature of shield, better structure generation or custom villagers, but Version 1.20.1 does have them.
► How can I disable the Random Generation of Spider Eggs?
The Generation of Spider Eggs can be disabled if you set the gamerule "spiderEggGeneration" to false.
Keep in mind that spiders can still place Spider Eggs when they killed an entity!
► Where can I find the mobs?
Most mobs can be found in regular plains or forest biomes. Some are only be found in jungles, deserts, savannas, during the night or in caves
► How can I tame a Jumping Spider?
You can tame a jumping spider by right clicking it with a Spider Eye Soup and instantly right clicking them with a saddle to tame them. If a Jumping Spider is tamed, it will not despawn naturally.
► How can I remove Mite Infection?
Mite Infection can be cleared by burning. If you clear the Mite Infection without burning, new mites will spawn, eventually infecting you again. Mites only infect a player if they don't wear full armor.
You can also disable the Mite Infection by setting the gamerule "disableMiteInfection" to true.
► Why is the Spider Cave so common/uncommon
The Spider Cave is a new custom cave biome and making a cave biome in mcreator is complicated. Sometimes, the cave is to big or to common, but sometimes it's to small or uncommon. Finding a balance with the generation is hard.
If you don't find any spider cave, you can also use the /locate biome command.
► Why does the spider cave decoration take so long?
The Spider Cave uses features as decorations. Those features places small blocks that doesn't use the default tick update. Instead, they have to tick randomly for generating the whole decoration due to naturall spawning placement within those blocks.
But most of the time, a player won't notice this as most of the stuff is already loaded. But if a player teleports to a spider cave or somehow find a cave while the decoration is loading, you might notice this.
► Why do I find random cobwebs under blocks?
This meant that there was a cellar spider, a black widow, a long horned orb weaver or a golden orb weaver hanging from the ceiling. Those spiders spawn often under blocks while creating a cobweb.
► How can I turn off the Cobweb spawning under trees?
The Generation of Cobwebs under blocks can be disabled if you set the gamerule "disableNaturalSpiderCobwebs" to true
► Why can't I read the descriptions of the spiders within the Bestiary of Spiders book?
To read all descriptions, you have to find the spider first and approach it within a 10 block range. After that, you should have access to the description of the spider, making the book a bit of a collection task.
Arachnids are a diverse group of creatures found throughout the world. Most of them are either aggressive or neutral, depending on their species. They can spawn across various biomes such as caves, savannas, forests, plains, or jungles, while some can also be found in the new Spider Cave biome. Certain arachnids can even be seen clinging to ceilings, waiting for unsuspecting prey to pass beneath them. Many of these creatures are venomous, capable of inflicting poison or worse and weaving sticky webs to trap their victims. However, not all arachnids are dangerous! Some can even be helpful, such as the Jumping Spider, which offers new forms of transportation. Along spiders lurks a rare insect predator, called the Tarantula Hawk, a natural enemy of spiders that hunts them down without mercy.
