Survival Plus
by Klickgon
Survival Plus brings back danger to Minecraft survival with new mobs and changes to beds, sleep and night, so a base needs real defenses.
What it does
Survival Plus changes how nights work. Beds only skip seven in-game hours, a successful sleep starts a four-hour cooldown, and a bed no longer lets a player survive an entire night untouched. A new raid-like system called Base Assaults sends waves of hostile mobs at a base that is close to the bed set as spawn point, and waves grow stronger over at least five in-game days. A gamerule switches Base Assaults off for a server.
The mod adds three reworked hostile mobs: a creeper variant that is slower to ignite, does not explode close to a closed door, and is careful around other hostile mobs; a Builder Zombie that wears a high-vis jacket and builds bridges to save itself from falling; and a Destroyer Zombie that digs through blocks a tool can break. A Scorched Skeleton carries a bow with the new Flame II enchantment and sets targets and blocks on fire. The mod runs on Fabric for 1.20.2 – 1.21.10 and is open source under the Apache License 2.0.
Key features
Limited sleep
Sleeping skips only seven in-game hours, and a successful sleep starts a four-hour cooldown before the next one.
Base Assaults
Waves of hostile mobs spawn during the night against a base near the bed used as spawn point, and waves strengthen over time.
Builder and Destroyer Zombies
One zombie builds bridges and bridges its own falls, while another digs toward the player through mineable blocks.
Reworked creeper
The new creeper ignites slowly, does not explode near closed doors, and keeps its distance from other hostile mobs.
Scorched Skeleton
A skeleton with a bow that fires Flame II arrows sets its target and the block it hits on fire, and leaves fire behind it.

Similar to Raids, this new system spawns a wave of hostile mobs during the night with the goal of causing destruction to your base. Each wave needs at least 5 in-game days to spawn and the waves get progressively stronger, so if you want to survive, your base might require some serious defenses, especially with the…
