Biomes
- Datapack config takes priority (\cave_dweller\tags\worldgen\biome\cave_dweller_surface_biomes.json), by default it contains #forge:is_spooky
- In the configs you can set whether surface biome list is handled as a white- or blacklist
- You can also configure the biomes in the configs but you'll have to enable the override config for that to take effect
Dimensions
- You can manage the dimensions it can spawn in through the configs - by default the Cave Dweller will only spawn in minecraft:overworld
- The entries are based on the dimension resource key, not the dimension type resource key
- If a dimension contains no valid players it it will not tick its logic (e.g. timers will not go down)
- The maximum amount of cave dwellers is per dimension
Compatibility
- If you're using the mod https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/enhanced-ai you will need to add the Cave Dweller to the
[Base.Targeting."Entity Blacklist"]config entry
