Mob Controller

Mob Controller modifies natural spawning and mob drops to provide content that would otherwise depend on disabled structures. It adds structure-associated mobs to suitable biomes and assigns smithing templates, music discs, and other scarce items to repeatable mob encounters.

Custom spawning

Some natural spawns are replaced according to biome, dimension, elevation, and light conditions.

Illager patrols occur at half the ordinary vanilla frequency.

The following templates can drop when the listed mob is killed by a player. Looting modifies the result.

Music discs

Configured mob interactions provide several music discs without requiring a player to make the final attack.

InteractionDisc
Charged creeper kills a piglin brutePigstep
Charged creeper kills a breezePrecipice
Charged creeper kills a boggedCreator or Creator Music Box
Warden kills a charged creeperOtherside

When a bogged is killed, Creator has a 75 percent chance and Creator Music Box has a 25 percent chance.

Other drops

Wardens drop either an echo shard or a disc fragment 5 with equal probability. A breeze has a 0.4 percent base chance to drop a heavy core, increased by 0.1 percentage point for each level of Looting. A ravager has a 1 percent base chance to drop an enchanted golden apple, also increased by 0.1 percentage point per Looting level. The Ender Dragon always drops a dragon head.

Iron golems do not drop iron ingots. Vindicators and evokers do not drop emeralds.

Spawn limit

Natural and custom mob spawning is limited to 10 successful spawns per chunk during each 60-minute period. Breeding is not included in this limit.
