Description
# In Control!
This is a simple mod that gives you full control on where mobs are allowed to spawn. It is based on a rule system. The rule files are located in `config/incontrol`.
There are currently five rule files (as of 3.5.1):
- **`spawn.json`:** with this file you can block spawning of certain creatures under certain conditions. In addition, when a spawn is allowed you can also alter some of the properties of the mob like maximum health and others
- **`summonaid.json`:** this is a file that is structured the same as `spawn.json` but is only used when zombies are summoned for aid
- **`potentialspawn.json (1.12 only)`:** with this file you can remove and add spawn rules under certain conditions. The rules in this file are used before the rules in `spawn.json` are fired so make sure that when you add a rule for new mobs here, the new mobs are allowed in `spawn.json`
- **`spawner.json (1.16 or later)`:** with this file you can add spawn rules under certain conditions
- **`loot.json`:** with this file you can control the loot that mobs drop when they are killed based on various criteria
- **`experience.json`:** with this file you can control how much experience you get from killing mobs based on various criteria
