SpawnerChance

SpawnerChance

A plugin for managing spawners with three main features:

1. Chance of a spawner dropping when broken (via permissions)
2. Granting a temporary drop chance to a player (via command)
3. Restricting which mobs can be placed in spawners (via config)

Optional Dependencies:

• LuckPerms - for granting temporary permissions
• PlaceholderAPI - for placeholders

Features

🎯 Spawner Drop Chance

• Configurable chance for a spawner to drop when broken
• Preserves mob type and all spawner settings
• Permissions system for different drop chances: spawner.dropchance.
• Informative messages for players

🎯 Temporary Spawner Drop Chance

• Requires LuckPerms for this feature
• Command /spawnerchance tempchance <player> <chance> grants a player a temporary drop chance when breaking a spawner
• Duration (in minutes) for the temporary drop chance is set in temp-chance-duration in the config
• Cleanup interval (in seconds) for expired temporary permissions is set in cleanup-interval

🚫 Mob Restrictions for Spawners (via spawn eggs)

• Whitelist of allowed mobs is set in the config: allowed-spawner-mobs: []
• Prevents placing forbidden mobs in spawners
• Admins can bypass restrictions
• Mob names in messages can be localized
