RPG Mob Levelling
by AntrolGaming
RPG Mob Levelling gives monsters a level that depends on where they spawn, which dimension they are in, and whether they are a boss, so encounters scale with the world.
What it does
Each monster receives a level when it spawns, and the level sets how strong it is and how much experience a player earns for killing it. Levels can start from the dimension, so the Nether begins higher than the Overworld, with the End higher still. Bosses have fixed levels, and the author text gives the Wither at 50 and the Ender Dragon at 100 as examples. A distance-based system raises levels the farther a player moves from set coordinates, which the server owner chooses.
The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and only the server needs it. It runs on Forge and NeoForge. Files exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 and 1.21.4 and 1.21.8, with 1.0 as the latest file for each loader. The license is custom and the code is not open source. A config screen in the game is included for version 1.21.8.
Key features
Level above mobs
Each monster shows its level as text above its head, so a player can judge a fight before starting it.
Level feedback in chat
An action bar message reports what killed a monster and how much experience the kill gave.
Dimension and distance scaling
Starting levels depend on the dimension, and levels rise with distance from coordinates the server sets.
Adjustable growth
Growth rates and attributes can be tuned, from a gradual curve to brutal high-stakes combat.
