Horde Moon 2
Horde Moon 2 adds a rare moon phase to Enhanced Celestials 2, during which zombie spawns rise sharply across the world.
What it does
Horde Moon 2 adds a zombie horde event that comes with the rare Horde Moon phase of Enhanced Celestials 2. During that phase, zombie spawns are greatly increased, so the overworld can fill with mobs quickly. Players who want a harder night can use the event with Hords. CorgiLib, Data Anchor and Enhanced Celestials 2: Core are all required. Enhanced Celestials 2: Core still needs to be installed even when the mod is used without the default moons. The mod runs on Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1, and both the server and every player need it. The code is under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Horde moon event
A rare Horde Moon phase greatly increases zombie spawn weight for the length of the night.
Overrun worlds
Mob spawn rates climb far above normal during the event, so zombies can take over surrounding areas.
Enhanced Celestials 2 phase
The horde event is built as a moon phase inside Enhanced Celestials 2, so it follows that mod's cycle.

What the author says
During the rare Horde Moon event, the weight of zombie spawns will be greatly increased, and during a Super Horde Moon, all mob spawns will increase by a large amount as well, leading to a world overrun by the walking dead.
