Mo' Creatures Reborn - v2.0.2 Changelog

⚡ Critical Performance & Server-Lag Fixes

• Fixed Console Spam & Entity Discard Bug: Resolved the severe chunk loading lag and the repetitive console error: "Tried to add entity mocreatures:green_ogre1 but it was removed already, discarding."
• Refactored Spawn Procedures:
  • Removed the bugged 50% random discard() call from GreenOgreSpawnProcedure, CaveOgreSpawnProcedure, FireOgreSpawnProcedure, and OstrichVariant2SpawnProcedure.
  • Secondary variants (GreenOgre2Entity, CaveOgre2Entity, FireOgre2Entity, and BlackOstrichEntity) now have proper native spawn placements registered via RegisterSpawnPlacementsEvent.
  • Kitten texture variants in KittyAOnInitialEntitySpawnProcedure are now applied in-memory without discarding or re-spawning the entity.
• Rebalanced Biome Modifiers:
  • Reduced excessive spawn weight from 80 down to 10 for Ogres and Ostriches.
  • Removed Ogres from ocean, river, and aquatic biomes.

⚙️ Spawning Configuration System (mocreatures-common.toml)

• New Config File: Added an official configuration file located at config/mocreatures-common.toml.
• Custom Mob Blacklist (disabled_spawns):
  • Disable any specific creature from spawning by adding its registry name:

    [spawning]
    disabled_spawns = ["mocreatures:green_ogre1", "mocreatures:golem", "mocreatures:crocodile", "mocreatures:roach"]
    

• Category Toggles:
  • Enable or disable entire mob categories easily:
    • spawn_ogres (Green, Cave, and Fire Ogres)
    • spawn_golems (Rock Golems)
    • spawn_crocodiles (Crocodiles)
    • spawn_insects (Cockroaches, Flies, Scorpions, Maggots, Crickets, etc.)
    • spawn_big_cats, spawn_bears, spawn_werewolves, spawn_wyverns, spawn_manticores, etc.
• Early Engine Interception: Blocks unwanted spawns cleanly via NeoForge's SpawnPlacementCheck, PositionCheck, and EntityJoinLevelEvent.

🛡️ Tamed Combat Pets Defend Owner

• Supported Mobs (19 Entities):
  • Big Cats (10 Species): Lion, Tiger, Leopard, Panther, Panthger, Panthard, Lither, Leoger, Liard, Liger (LionEntity, TigerEntity, etc.).
  • Bears (4 Species): Grizzly Bear, Black Bear, Polar Bear, Panda Bear (GrizzlyBearEntity, BlackBearEntity, etc.).
  • Komodo Dragon: (KomodoDragonEntity).
  • Wyverns: (WyvernEntity).
  • Manticores (5 Variants): Plain, Dark, Fire, Frost, and Toxic Manticores (ManticoreEntity, etc.).
• Defensive AI Goals:
  • Owner Protection (OwnerHurtByTargetGoal): Pets retaliate immediately against any mob or player that damages their owner.
  • Attack Assistance (OwnerHurtTargetGoal): Pets join the attack against targets their owner engages.
  • Hostile Patrol (NearestAttackableTargetGoal<Monster>): Tamed combat pets engage nearby hostile monsters while intelligently ignoring Creepers to avoid suicidal explosions.
  • Follow Owner (FollowOwnerGoal): Tamed pets follow the player on foot when not ridden.
• Behavior Safeguards:
  • Sitting Respect (isMoCSitting): Pets commanded to sit (via Whip or sit command) stay in place and will not pursue enemies.
  • Baby Protection (isMoCBaby): Cubs and juveniles do not enter combat until fully grown.
  • Aggression Fix: Fixed Attack*Procedure so tamed Big Cats, Wyverns, Komodo Dragons, and Manticores never target the player once tamed.
