No Iron Golems Spawn
by Simonkrh
No Iron Golems Spawn stops iron golems from appearing in villages and from the villager spawn egg and spawn commands on a Fabric server.
What it does
Iron golems normally appear in villages on their own. With this mod installed on the server, they no longer spawn that way, and a golem placed by a player building it by hand is the only kind that remains. The same block stops golems that come from the villager spawn egg and from spawn commands, so an operator cannot bring one back through those routes either.
Only the server needs the mod, so players can join without installing anything. It requires Fabric API on the server and operator level 2 or higher for the command. An operator command reports the count of villager-spawned golems the mod has stopped. The mod is published for Fabric only, across 1.21.4, 1.21.6 and 1.21.8, and is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license.
Its file for 1.21.8 is the latest, dated 2025-09-08, and a 1.0.3 build carries the same version number, so server owners on any of the three versions get the same behavior.
