Welcome to the Power Mobs plugin!
Why was the Power Mobs plugin created?
I was a user of many free plugins over the years for my family server. However, some plugins didn't allow the customizability I needed or intruded too much on the vanilla experience. So I created this plugin for a customizable Vanilla+ experience that can allow you to still do everything you can do in vanilla Minecraft (such as mob farms). Initially, it was only going to be for personal use with my family, but I decided to make it open to everyone!
What are Power Mobs?
Simply put, they are custom mobs that can spawn within your Minecraft world with special equipment, abilities, and attributes. This special equipment is also obtainable. All of it is configurable!
What features are included?
- Customizable items (attributes, custom model data, enchantments, potion effect interaction, and more)
- Power Mobs that are fully customizable with stats, drops, equipment, and some special abilities!
- Limit Power Mobs from spawning based on the defined spawn context, such as biome, mob type, coordinates, and more.
- In-game UI for editing Power Mobs easily
- Spawn blockers to prevent these Power Mobs from spawning where you don't want them to. Mob farms are saved! (Current limit of a 5x5 chunk radius)
- Timers to prevent these unique mobs from spawning too frequently or too much in a given area
How do I use the plugin?
Eventually, it will be more plug-and-play with more default Power mobs and items, but everything is still ready for personal configuration!
Main things to be aware of:
1) In the Minecraft world, use the command /powemob config, which will pull up a UI to add, remove, or alter Power Mob settings.
2) Most of the related config files have all the information needed to know how to create/edit your own special items and mobs, or tweak global settings and abilities.
Possible future updates:
- Add custom potions config
- M̶a̶k̶e̶ ̶a̶b̶i̶l̶i̶t̶y̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶f̶i̶g̶ ̶p̶e̶r̶ ̶P̶o̶w̶e̶r̶ ̶M̶o̶b̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶e̶a̶d̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶b̶e̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶u̶n̶i̶v̶e̶r̶s̶a̶l̶

Aditional Info
This is the first plugin I have created and have been working on for a long time. If you encounter any bugs, typos, or odd settings that I've missed, please report them in the
Discord.
Compatibility for Leveled Mobs and Infernal Mobs has been tested, and info about it is in the README.md on
GitHub
Should be compatible with Minecraft 1.21.4 - 1.21.11 for Paper/Spigot. Maybe ones before that as well.
