# OldRaidMechanics
A Paper **26.2** plugin that brings the **raid behaviour of Minecraft 1.20.1** back to modern servers.
Raid mechanics changed twice in a row and broke the old raid farm designs:
* **1.21** (`24w13a`): killing a raid captain no longer hands out Bad Omen — you have to drink an
Ominous Bottle.
* **1.21.2** (`24w33a`, `24w35a`): a Bad Omen in a village only becomes a Raid Omen with a 30 second
countdown, the spawn ranges became countdown driven instead of attempt driven, and a raid does not
start at all if the raiders cannot find a spawn position within 96 blocks vertically of the village
centre.
This plugin restores the 1.20.1 behaviour for those three points and leaves everything else — wave
counts, raider counts, enchanted gear, raid win/loss and celebration flow — exactly as vanilla has it.
