antispawn
by numenmc
antispawn lets server owners block mob spawning inside named rectangular regions, so players can keep certain areas free of hostile mobs.
What it does
Regions are defined by two corner coordinates and an id, and any mob that would spawn inside one is prevented from appearing there. Specific mob types can also be kept from spawning. Permission checks are supported through the Fabric Permissions API, so access to the commands can be granted without operator rights.
The mod runs on a server only, so players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric alone, across six release versions 1.21.6 – 1.21.11, with 1.1+1.21.11 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved, while the source and issue tracker are public.
