No Slime Superflat

No Slime Superflat is a lightweight utility mod designed to stop slimes from spawning in Superflat worlds. It provides a standalone solution without requiring external APIs or dependencies.

Overview

This mod was created to provide a simple and clean way to manage slime spawning. It focuses on being as lightweight as possible, running its logic only when necessary and keeping a minimal memory footprint.

Features

• Runtime Toggle: You can enable or disable the slime prevention in-game without having to restart Minecraft.
• Standalone: The mod works by itself and does not require any additional library mods or APIs.
• Lightweight Design: Built to have a minimal impact on game resources.
• Statistics System: Includes an in-game command to track how many slimes have been blocked during your session.
• World Specific: The mod is designed to detect and act specifically in Superflat world types.

Technical Details

Performance Design

• World Type Caching: To save resources, the mod uses a 5-second cache for world-type checks instead of querying the world every time a spawn occurs.
• Thread-Safety: Uses AtomicLong for statistics tracking to ensure data consistency during spawn events.
• Conditional Logic: The mod performs checks in a specific order to stop execution as early as possible if the conditions for blocking a spawn are not met.

Commands

• /noslimesuperflat stats: Shows the total number of blocked slimes and spawn checks performed.
• /noslimesuperflat reload: Reloads the configuration file manually.

Configuration

The mod can be configured via the in-game menu (Mods -> No Slime Superflat -> Config) or by editing the config/noslimesuperflat.cfg file:

• General: Enable/Disable the mod and toggle debug logging.
• Performance: Manage optimized spawn checking and world-type caching settings.

Installation

1. Ensure you are using Minecraft 1.12.2 with Forge 14.23.5.2847 or higher.

Compatibility

Known Issues

• The in-game configuration may require a world restart to apply certain changes in some environments. I am working on a fix for the next update.
