SporeSRP Mod Configuration – Full Feature Guide v1.2.0

This document explains every system controlled by sporesrp-common.toml – covering Evolution, Adaptation, Support, Conversion, Ecosystem, Mound, Tracking, Infected Biome, Skills, and more.

Important: This mod will attempt to read and modify the configuration file sporeconfig.toml of the Fungal Infection: Spore mod. Please ensure that this file exists. The modification is performed only once during the first installation; a backup of the original file is created. If you later manually change the modified lines and wish to revert to the pre‑modification state, delete the marker file sporesrp_mound_modified.marker.

1. Global Setting

2. Evolution System

Accumulate “evolution points” by killing/converting entities to advance through phases; all mob attributes scale accordingly.

Higher phases make mobs tougher, but also reward more points and challenge. The cooldown prevents rapid phase skipping.

3. Mob Pools

Lists of entities that can be randomly selected for each rank:

• small – Infected humans, villagers, witches, etc.
• medium – Knights, spitters, stalkers, brutes, mounds, reconstructors, vigils, usurpers, vervas, etc.
• large – Wendigo, inquisitor, ogre, proto, etc.
• boss – Sieger, Gazenbreacher, Hindenburg, etc.
• organoids – Special entities (Mound, Reconstructor, Vigil, Usurper, Braurei, Delusioner, Verva, Hivetumor, Proto) excluded from certain conversion mechanics.

4. Conversion System

Converts low‑health vanilla/other mobs into spore creatures.

5. Adaptation System

Mobs gradually gain damage reduction against the damage type they receive.

6. Support System

Mobs have a chance to call reinforcements when killed or injured.

7. Ecosystem Conversion

Spore mobs actively convert nearby blocks into infected variants.

8. Mound System

Mounds are naturally spawned, upgradable structures that serve as spore outposts.

9. Tracking System

10. Infected Biome System

Proto and Mound entities expand infected biomes.

11. Evolution Points

Point gains and penalties:

12. Mound Support (Level‑based Reinforcements)

Mounds automatically summon reinforcements based on their level (1–4).

• levelUpIntervalTicks – Upgrade interval (6000 ticks = 5 minutes)
• scanIntervalTicks – Scan interval for checking conditions (40 ticks) – even if cooldown is over, the mound won't scan every tick.
• supportConfigs – Format per level:
  level:range:minSmall:maxSmall:minMedium:maxMedium:cooldownSeconds:spawnScent(0/1)
  Examples:
  • Level 1: range 15, no small/medium, cooldown 250s, spawns Scent
  • Level 2: range 20, 1–2 small, cooldown 15s, no Scent
  • Level 3: range 30, 1–3 small + 1 medium, cooldown 15s
  • Level 4: range 40, 2–3 medium, cooldown 15s

13. Proto‑marked Mounds

Proto entities actively mark and maintain a set number of Mounds.

14. Proto Skills

Proto possesses five active skills, with a dynamic behaviour switch based on the number of nearby large‑pool mobs.

The threshold (largePoolThreshold) determines whether Proto uses the Verva‑focused skills (2 & 3) or switches to spawning Delusioners (skill 4), allowing adaptive responses to the local mob population.

SporeSRP - Features Documentation

Commands

/sporesrp difficulty <mode>

Switch the global difficulty of the SporeSRP mod. This affects the attribute bonuses applied to all infected entities based on the current evolution phase.

Available Modes:

Effect on Attributes:

The difficulty multiplier affects the bonus portion of attributes only. Base values remain unchanged, meaning:

Final Value = Base Value + (Base Value × (Phase Multiplier - 1) × Difficulty Multiplier)

For example, a zombie with 20 base health at Phase 1 (1.2x health multiplier) on Hard mode (1.3x difficulty) will have:

Final Health = 20 + (20 × 0.2 × 1.3) = 25.2 ❤️

Affected Attributes:

• Health (Max Health)
• Attack Damage
• Movement Speed
• Armor
• Knockback Resistance

Usage Example:

/sporesrp difficulty hard

Notes:

• Difficulty changes take effect immediately for all existing infected entities.
• Difficulty data is saved per world and persists across server restarts.
• Requires operator permissions (OP level 2).

Enchantments

1. Fungal Bane

"A blade honed against the fungal scourge."

Damage Per Level:

Conflicts With:

• Sharpness
• Smite
• Bane of Arthropods

Mechanics:

• Damage is added after armor reduction, effectively ignoring the target's armor.
• Only affects entities from the spore mod namespace.
• The extra damage is unaffected by the target's armor value.

In-Game Description:

"Increases damage against fungal enemies. Ignores armor."

2. Frost Aspect

"The chilling touch of eternal winter."

Effect Duration & Amplifier:

Frostbite Effect (from Spore mod):

• Deals damage over time to infected entities.
• Crucially: Entities with Frostbite cannot use the Adaptation system (damage resistance) from SporeSRP.

Conflicts With:

• Fire Aspect

Mechanics:

• Each melee hit applies Frostbite with the duration and amplifier determined by enchantment level.
• The Frostbite effect is applied after the hit lands.
• Frostbite damage over time is handled by the Spore mod's native mechanics.

In-Game Description:

"Applies frostbite on melee hit."

3. Frost Shot

"Frozen arrows that carry winter's wrath."

Effect Duration & Amplifier:

Frostbite Effect (from Spore mod):

• Deals damage over time to infected entities.
• Crucially: Entities with Frostbite cannot use the Adaptation system (damage resistance) from SporeSRP.

Conflicts With:

• Flame (Bow) / Fire Aspect

Summary

SporeSRP creates escalating survival pressure and territorial expansion through layered mechanics: evolution, adaptive resistance, reinforcements, terrain conversion, outpost building, and a versatile Proto AI with five distinct skills. Almost every value is configurable, making it easy for pack developers to fine‑tune difficulty.
