Better Spawners is a technical Minecraft mod that adds two new types of smart spawner blocks. The mod operates entirely server-side and provides tools for creating advanced mob farms and boss arenas.
Main Blocks:
- Spawner: Spawns up to 5 mobs every minute
- Boss Spawner: Spawns 1 boss every hour (only activates when a player approaches)
Features:
- Fully customizable spawn list using spawn eggs
- Intelligent mob population management
- Particle animations only activate when players are nearby
- Server-optimized with no client performance impact
- Unbreakable blocks (bedrock-level resistance)
Usage:
- Place a spawner block in the world
- Right-click with a spawn egg to add mobs to the spawn list
- Right-click with empty hand to view spawner information
- Shift+right-click to clear the mob list (creative mode only)
Obtain blocks via /give command:
/give @p selomolochnoe:spawner
/give @p selomolochnoe:boss_spawner
