Mob Blocker
by Maxwell-lt
Mob Blocker lets players claim a chunk where hostile mobs are teleported away, giving them safe nights while they build and gather during the day.
What it does
A Chunk Protector is given to players when they first enter the game. Once a block is placed, any hostile mob that enters the area around it is sent elsewhere, and arrows fired by skeletons or potions thrown by witches lose their effect when they cross the protected border. Players can gather resources and build through the night, without needing to dig a hole to survive.
The block does not last forever. After a set number of configurable days, the Chunk Protector decays and vanishes without trace, so builders should plan walls before that point. Later in progression, an Area Protector can be crafted; unlike the Chunk Protector, it does not disappear and protects only a small area around itself rather than an entire chunk.
Mob Blocker runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with the source code and issue tracker publicly linked. Files are published for Forge only, across the 1.14 – 1.14.4 range, with 2.0 for 1.14.4 as the latest file.
Key features
Mob-free chunk protection
A placed Chunk Protector teleports hostile mobs out of the area around it, so the protected zone stays clear at night.
Projectile nullification
Skeleton arrows and witch potions are neutralized once they cross into the protected border.
Timed decay
The Chunk Protector vanishes after a configurable number of days, so protection is temporary by design.
Crafted Area Protector
A later-game Area Protector is crafted and covers only a small radius, with no decay.

Use cases
Night building
Players who want to keep building after dark can place a protected zone and work through the night.
Early-game resource gathering
A new player can collect materials during the day and rely on the block to keep mobs away after sunset.
Who it’s for: Players who want a safe base or build area without digging shelters, and server owners who want a protected spot near spawn. Both client and server need the mod installed.
