Piglin-Free Portals

by 8617

Piglin-Free Portals stops piglins and pigmen from spawning inside Nether portals, so the mob cap stays free for other mobs.

What it does

Nether portals in the world can attract piglins and pigmen, and those mobs take up slots in the mob cap. Piglin-Free Portals blocks that spawning, which keeps portal-based farms from having their rates lowered by piglins filling the cap. Players who had put a gate across portals to keep these mobs out may find the gate unnecessary. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing it. It is published for Fabric across 27 release versions, 1.19 – 26.1.2, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Blocks portal piglin spawns

    Piglins and pigmen no longer spawn from Nether portals, so the area around a portal stops filling with them.

  2. Frees mob cap slots

    Without portal spawns, the mob cap keeps room for other mobs, which helps portal-based farms.

  3. Removes the need for portal gates

    Players no longer have to close off portals with a gate to keep piglins out of the area.

What the author says

Stops Piglins from spawning on nether portals. Perfect fix for portal based farms, with lower rates due to piglins filling mobcap. Or for people tired of having to gate off their portals. If you need before 1.19, here is another similar version of the mod Pigless Portals (not affiliated)
