YepBlocked gives you complete control over entity spawns — any mob from any mod, controlled via simple in-game commands with tab completion. No manual config editing needed (but it's there if you want it).
Features
- Global toggles — block or allow all natural / spawner / trial spawner / egg spawns at once
- Per-entity overrides — fine-tune specific mobs (e.g. block phantom natural spawns but allow spawn eggs)
- Glob & regex patterns — use
minecraft:*or.*golemto match entire groups at once - Hot-reload — apply config changes instantly with
/yb reload, no restart required - Persistence — config auto-saves to
config/YepBlocked.jsonon first run
Commands
All commands require operator privileges (permission level 2):
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/yb reload |
Reload config from disk. Only needed after manual edits — changes via /yb add, /yb remove, /yb global apply immediately |
/yb global [flags] |
Set global spawn defaults for all entities. Run without flags to see current settings |
/yb add <entity> [flags] |
Add an override for a specific entity |
/yb remove <entity> |
Remove a specific entity override |
Example:
/yb global natural— disable natural spawns for all entities at once.
Example:/yb global ~natural— re-enable natural spawns globally.
Example:/yb global natural egg— disable natural spawns AND spawn eggs for all entities.
Example:/yb add minecraft:creeper natural=false egg=true— block natural creeper spawns but allow eggs.
How flags work
Each override (global or per-entity) can control four spawn sources independently:
natural— natural world spawns (day/night cycle, biomes)spawner— monster spawnerstrial— trial spawnersegg— spawn eggs
Flag syntax:
- Bare flag = block:
/yb add zombie natural ~prefix = allow:/yb add zombie ~natural=syntax:/yb add zombie natural=false egg=true
