What is MobStacker2?
MobStacker2 is a highly efficient, customizable and easy to use plugin for lifting entity stress from your server.
It works by grouping stacks of mobs together based on different configurable settings in the config.
Why is this any different to the others I see?
MobStacker2 works on a different system to any other mob stacking plugin. Most plugins will loop through every single entity in every world many times in a second. MobStacker2 however puts a "radar" on each mob as it spawns. This means that mobs are only trying to stack if they are able to, rather than checking them when we know they shouldn't stack. These radars can be individually controlled and gives you a lot more control over what stacks and what doesn't without wasting resources.
Just look at the config below and see just how much you can customize!
Supported Plugins:
- mcMMO
- WorldGuard
- ClearLagg
- MythicMobs (Keeps separate, doesn't integrate)
- Spigot 1.7 - 1.11
- PaperSpigot is also supported for the same versions as Spigot.
Default Name Layout:
Commands:
/mobstacker toggle (mobstacker2.toggle) - Toggles whether mobs are stacking
/mobstacker reload (mobstacker2.reload) - Reloads the config
/mobstacker inspect (mobstacker2.inspect) - Shows stack info on the stack you are looking at.
/mobstacker stacking <true || false> (mobstacker2.stacking) - Allows you to set where the stack you are looking at should stack or not.
/mobstacker quantity <int> (mobstacker2.quantity) - Allows you to set the quantity of the stack you are looking at.
/mobstacker clear (mobstacker2.clear) - Removes all stacks and provides info on how much was cleared.
/mobstacker remove (mobstacker2.remove) - Removes the stack the command user is looking at.
/mobstacker trystack (mobstacker2.trystack) - Will tell the entity you are looking at to try stack to other entities around it.
/mobstacker stats (mobstacker2.stats) - Returns info on how many stacks there is on the server, how many mobs they represent and what % MobStacker2 has lowered those entity number by.
/mobstacker region <add || remove> <regionID> (mobstacker2.region.add/remove) - Allows you to blacklist/un-blacklist WorldGuard claims. Adding a claim to the blacklist will stop mobs stacking in there.
