Description

Spawners in vanilla Minecraft are infinite mob factories — set up a farm once and it runs forever. Decaying Spawners changes that. Each spawner has a limited lifespan: once it has spawned enough mobs (or been active long enough), it burns out and stops working permanently.

Configuration

Configuration is loaded from:

config/btwr/decaying_spawners/decaying_spawners.json
Option Default Description
maxMobSpawnCount 12 How many mobs a spawner can spawn before decaying. Set to -1 to disable.
maxSpawnerTicks -1 How many active ticks a spawner can run before decaying. Set to -1 to disable.
excludedSpawners [] A list of entity IDs whose spawners will never decay.

Example config:

{
  "maxMobSpawnCount": 20,
  "maxSpawnerTicks": -1,
  "excludedSpawners": [
    "minecraft:blaze",
    "minecraft:silverfish"
  ]
}

Changes to the config file take effect the next time you load a world
