Natural Spawns

Requires AdditionalSpawnConstraints

Overview

Only allows spawns of drifters (and similar mobs) above natural blocks, even during storms; blocks are considered natural if their name satisfies any of the filters below:

  • "game:sand-*"
  • "game:gravel-*"
  • "game:dirtygravel"
  • "game:sludgygravel"
  • "game:muddygravel"
  • "game:soil-*"
  • "game:forestfloor-*"
  • "game:peat-*"
  • "game:rock-*"
  • "game:crackedrock-*"
  • "game:regolith-*"
  • "game:ore-*"
  • "game:saltpeter-*"
  • "game:looseboulders-*"
  • "game:loosestones-*"
  • "game:looseores-*

Might adversely affect dungeon spawns, but keeps helps keep drifters out of your builds even if they are unlit.

This should be added to vanilla.

Works great for me.  Nice not having spawns in my home.  Thank you :)

Is this mod functional still?

Craluminum Mega_

Yes, realized spawn control was different during storms after our multiplayer server had experienced one earlier today. Will try looking at SystemTemporalStability.trySpawnDrifters() to see if it can be controlled as well.

Mega_ Temporal storm have its own spawning mechanics and when there is no space to spawn, drifters get spawned inside air blocks

💬 Mega_, May 19th 2023 at 5:01 PM

How does this mod interact with temporal storms?
