Creature availability

Key Type Default Description
Mob_eggs map Generated automatically Per-creature toggle that controls whether a creature can be captured and converted into a spawn egg.

Behavior details:

  • The plugin generates Mob_eggs automatically for all alive and spawnable entity types.
  • Missing entries are added automatically when the plugin detects new entity types.
  • Older configs using top-level entity keys are converted into the Mob_eggs section.

Notes

  • After changing config values, run /cc reload.
  • Setting a creature to false in Mob_eggs disables capturing that entity.
  • Iron Golem support is special-cased and uses a custom-named spawn egg item.
