Description

**Original mod**: [Cave Dweller](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/cave-dweller) ## Features - Cave Dweller has lots of additional (configurable) behaviour - Some issues fixed (e.g. it works in multiplayer) ## FAQ - Another user has created a Fabric port: [Cave Dweller Evolved (Fabric)](https://modrinth.com/mod/cave-dweller-evolved-(fabric) "Cave Dweller Evolved (Fabric)") - There are no plans for < 1.18.2 ports ### Commands Ther are some commands when you use `/cave_dweller` - `fast_forward`: Increase (or decrease) the current spawn or noise timer (in ticks) - `get_target`: Displays the current spawn target (cave dweller will spawn at its destination and target it) - `get_timer`: Displays the current spawn or noise timer (in seconds), format being: current / target ### Biomes - Datapack config takes priority (\cave_dweller\tags\worldgen\biome\cave_dweller_surface_biomes.json), by default it contains #forge:is_spooky - In the configs you can set whether surface biome list is handled as a white- or blacklist - You can also configure the biomes in the configs but you'll have to enable the override config for that to take effect ### Dimensions - You can manage the dimensions it can spawn in through the configs - by default the Cave Dweller will only spawn in minecraft:overworld - The entries are based on the dimension resource key, not the dimension type resource key - If a dimension contains no valid players it it will not tick its logic (e.g. timers will not go down) - The maximum amount of cave dwellers is per dimension ### Compatibility - If you're using the mod [Enhanced AI](https://modrinth.com/mod/enhanced-ai) you will need to add the Cave Dweller to the `[Base.Targeting."Entity Blacklist"]` config entry
