craftable spawn eggs and spawners
by alextfdj
Craftable spawn eggs and spawners lets players craft the spawn egg for a mob and a spawner from common materials instead of finding them in the world, for 1.20.1 on Forge.
What it does
Each mob egg and the spawner are built from a short list of items, such as Amethyst Shards, raw beef, rotten flesh, emeralds, iron bars, soul sand and dragon's breath, so a player can make a wolf, villager, wither or ender dragon egg at a crafting table. The recipes use vanilla items and a few mob drops, and the mod adds no new mobs of its own. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The mod is published for Forge only, at version 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, under the MIT License, and is not open source. Just Enough Items (JEI) is an optional dependency that shows the recipes in its interface.
Key features
Craftable spawn eggs
Egg recipes for several mobs use Amethyst Shards with drops or materials specific to each mob.
Craftable spawner
A spawner is made from Amethyst Shards and iron bars, so it no longer has to be found in dungeons.
Boss egg recipes
The wither and ender dragon eggs use wither skeleton skulls and dragon's breath, which are harder to collect.
