There is only one command for this plugin. "horde" (or it's alias "reloadhorde") will reload the setting from the config.yml allowing you to change the setting without having to restart the server or, even worse, use "reload".

Change Log
Version 2.0
- Per world settings!
- Added all other creatures
- Now using config.yml
- In-game time restrictions for spawns
- Configurable messages for Horde Attacks
Version 1.02 (Version 1.03 on git(Typo))
- Mobs now spawn reliably
- The spawning is run through Bukkit's scheduler making it thread safe
- The spawning location checks are now more extensive (is the mob going to spawn in mid-area with these coordinates kind of checks)(so extensive in fact I had to add a time out to stop the server freezing as it tried to find a suitable location). Even with theses editions, I still get a few mobs spawning under ground and in walls but the frequency is less, can't work out why though :S
- You can now choose the amount of mobs you want to spawn, none of this spawning about a million at once and crashing the server when you just wanted 1.
- Removed player listener as it is no longer used
Version 1.01
- Fixed NullPointerException reported by MineralMC
Version 1
