About this project

What does Gene Mutation add?

Description

This is a dynamically increasing difficulty mod, where the genes of all mobs undergo mutations every night. These mutations will gradually accumulate and eventually become very frightening.

Everything can be adjusted in the configuration, and you can find your own difficulty curve.
Config Interface

Mutation Probability is the probability of mutation every night. If it is greater than 1, multiple mutations may occur every night.

Mutation Rate is the multiplier of the degree of mutation. The larger it is, the higher the degree of mutation each time.

Killing a mob has a probability of dropping genes, with a default probability of 1%. 

By continuously observing genes with a telescope, it can be transformed into the studied gene. You can use it to know which mutations are currently occurring.

Studying a gene

Faced with the increasing mobs, you are not without countermeasures. You can use degenerated gene fragments to reduce the degree of mutation in certain genes. For this you need degenerating table.
