Effigies is a mod that adds powerful mob spawning prevention options to the game.

## Version Support

Effigies supports multiple Minecraft versions and mod loaders:

| Loader | Minecraft Versions | |--------|-------------------| | Fabric | 1. 21. 11+ | | NeoForge | 1. 21. 11+ |

## Features - Adds 7 new Pikes (one for each spear variant) that prevent specific mob types from spawning within a radius based on their tier - Refer to the Pike Table below for specifics about the radius and recipes - Pikes also have item tooltips in-game describing their range - Radius' can now also be customized via the `config/effigies-config.toml` file - You can disable Pikes from preventing spawns by setting the radius to `-1` - Any config options will also update the in-game tooltips - Place a Pike block in the world, then right-click it with a mob head (or place the mob head on top of it) to activate it - When active, the Pike will prevent that mob type from spawning within its area of effect - Fire particles spawn when it becomes active! - Fire particles will also spawn whenever the Pike successfully prevents a mob spawn - Smoke particles spawn when it becomes inactive (the head is removed) - Supported mob heads by default: Skeleton, Wither Skeleton, Zombie, Creeper, and Piglin - Completely configurable via the `config/effigies-config.toml` file - Supports vanilla definitions, such as `minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie` to make sand prevent zombie spawns - Also supports modded definitions, such as `ecologics:coconut_planks=ecologics:penguin` to make coconut planks prevent penguin spawns - Also supports multiple references, so adding both `minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie` and `minecraft:zombie_head=minecraft:zombie` would mean either sand or a zombie head would work as intended! - Does NOT support a single block preventing spawns of multiple mobs, so having `minecraft:sand=minecraft:zombie` and on the next line having `minecraft:sand=minecraft:skeleton` would make sand ONLY prevent skeletons - Any blocks that are defined as Pike Heads (sand or coconut planks from the above examples) will be automatically scaled to the size of a mob head when placed on a pike, to make sure that any custom blocks looks decent on the Pike - Invalid blocks (ones not in the config file) that are placed on top will not be downscaled - When the player looks at an activated Pike, the mob it is currently preventing will hover on top of the Pike - Shift+Right-Click an activated Pike to remove the head (the head will drop as an item) - Breaking a Pike will drop both the Pike block and the head (if activated) - Pikes work in all dimensions (Overworld, Nether, End, and modded dimensions) - Also adds a new Anti-Spear which has slightly higher damage than Netherite and the same attack speed as Diamond - The Anti-Spear can also be used to craft the Anti-Pike which acts as a powerful mob spawner for whatever mob head is placed on it - Adds a convenient Grimoire which lists all the crafting recipes, radius of the Pikes, and valid mob heads
