[BUG] Natural Spawn does not function

[SirFancyBacon]

Plugin Version: 1.2 Sponge Version: Vanilla 7.2.3 (stable) Forge Version (as applicable): N/A Last known working version: 0.2 (previous release)

Problem Description: Natural Spawn setting no longer functions

Steps to Recreate: Enable natural spawn set the time to night and wait for mobs to spawn, only vanilla mobs will spawn; not Brawlator ones

Thanks, we will look into it
Did you have any Brawlator log within the console that could be related?

[obr-09]

I managed to get some brawlator mobs to spawn instead of the natural ones, so there must be something that differs

• Can you check there is no brawlator error log, at server startup or at runtime (when spawns should occur)?
  This is our best bet in case of a bug since the last version
• Is the config the same you used when it worked? Here is the monsters.conf that worked for me

  monsters=[
  {
      damage=1.0
      hp=50.0
      knockbackResistance=1
      name="Sandstorm Crusader"
      speed=1.0
      type=skeleton,
      pools=["table1","table3"]
      naturalSpawn={
          probability = 1
          biomeType = "minecraft:extreme_hills"
          maxHeight = 120
      }
      equipments = {
          offHand : {name : "bow"}
          mainHand : {ref : "barbarian_axe"}
          head : {name : "golden_helmet"}
          chest : {name : "leather_chestplate"}
          legs : {name : "diamond_leggings"}
          foot : {name : "iron_boots"}
      }
      additional = [
          {
              __class__ : com.onaple.brawlator.plugins.ExperienceThirdParty
              experience : 10
          }
      ]
  },
  {
      damage=1.0
      hp=5.0
      knockbackResistance=1
      name="Humanity leftover"
      speed=1.0
      type=zombie
      pools=[table3]
      experience=200
      naturalSpawn={
          probability = 1
          biomeType = "minecraft:extreme_hills"
          maxHeight = 120
      }
  },
  {
      damage=1.0
      hp=4.0
      knockbackResistance=6
      name="MisterPig"
      speed=1.0
      type=pig
      pools=[table1,table2]
      naturalSpawn={
          probability = 1d
          biomeType = "minecraft:extreme_hills"
          maxHeight = 100
      }
  }
  ]

  • Watch out for the biome, if your biome is not an existing biome id, it won't work (and you will have an error at startup)
  • There are some biomes that are "modified". In game with F3 debug on, you will see [biome name] +M or something like that. I don't know much about those, but I believe those are different biomes (and thus not affected with regular biome id)
  • Your probability must be between 0 and 1 (don't forget the "d" for decimal if you have a float number). 0 means no spawn at all, 1 means replace every spawn
  • It will only replace monsters with the same type (a skeleton custom monster won't replace creeper spawns)

Using that config, I saw custom zombies and skeletons replacing the regular ones in the "Extreme Hills" biome (but not in the "ExtremeHills+M" biome)

PS: We are now up to date with the release system, so the README label is now the last version

I see what the issue is then, I don't have the biomeType defined, Is there a way to do it globally?

I'd like some mobs to spawn anywhere that isn't explicitly defined, but if it is defined i want those to spawn instead.

With the current plugin version I don't think there is, but it is something we could add

I'm closing this issue in favor of #8
