Rerange

by Abstrusle

Rerange changes how monster spawning is limited around players, with settings for mob caps and spawn distance on Forge.

ForgeServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.12 – 1.12.2

What it does

Rerange lets the server adjust entity spawn caps and the distance at which monsters spawn relative to a player. A configuration menu exposes these values, so server owners can set them without editing files by hand. Only the server needs the mod, and players join without installing anything. Files are published for Forge 1.12.2 only, with 1.2.0 as the latest build, released under the MIT License and open source.

Key features

  1. Spawn cap settings

    Entity spawn caps can be configured, limiting how many monsters are present in a loaded area.

  2. Spawn distance control

    The minimum and maximum distance from a player at which monsters may spawn can be set.

  3. Configuration menu

    Values are changed through an in-game configuration screen rather than only through config files.

What the author says

Rerange implements the ability to forcibly modify all mob caps and monster spawn distance from player, through its configuration menu. It functions by denying spawns, or if a particular setting is enabled, teleporting out-of-bounds spawns to the preferred range. Rerange is designed to be compatible with Cubic Chunks…
