This is a simple 'plug and play' plugin that adds a difficulty to creatures, and a Level Indication based on their distance from Spawn. The current formula to get the mobs level is by default as follows....
This gives the result of creatures 0 - 49 blocks from spawn = Level 1. 50-99 = Level 2, etc
The distance value of, 50, can be modified by your own choice
What these levels change and add...
Increases Damage / Health a monster has (these levels play into configurable formulas that increase damage and health)
Adds armor to creatures at specific increments (configurable)
Gives different loot drops based on level
Level Regions
Level regions can be created (in conjunction with World Guard) to create zones of stronger/weaker mobs! You simply create a level region with the worldguard id and give it a level!
From there you can customize mob names based on regions!
Mob Variants
In the newer versions I have introduced mob variants! These variants allow there to be some randomization in terms of the creatures you will run into. Anything from "Poisonous" to "Explosive", or "Weak" to "Sturdy". All the variants are configurable allowing you full control over how these act, and if you don't want one? Disable it!
Commands
/lrm - displays all available commands of the ones listed below (if not listed check permissions)
/lrm butcher [radius] - kills all entities loaded in world that aren't tamed
/lrm region - access to all region commands
/lrm reload - saves/reloads config files
/lrm spawnpoint - access to all spawnpoint commands
/lrm update - updates the plugin, takes effect after server restart
Permissions
lrm.admin - gives access to most the commands above
lrm.butcher - gives access to the butcher command
lrm.update - gives access to /lrm update - uses auto updater to allow for automatic updates!
You can use world guard regions to change level, formatting, even name on a per entity basis
Example image of a variant. You can see it is displayed in the name as well as this one is "Burning" so it is on fire.
