Better Spawners is a technical Minecraft mod that adds two new types of smart spawner blocks. The mod operates entirely server-side and provides tools for creating advanced mob farms and boss arenas.

Main Blocks:

• Spawner: Spawns up to 5 mobs every minute
• Boss Spawner: Spawns 1 boss every hour (only activates when a player approaches)

Features:

• Fully customizable spawn list using spawn eggs
• Intelligent mob population management
• Particle animations only activate when players are nearby
• Server-optimized with no client performance impact
• Unbreakable blocks (bedrock-level resistance)

Usage:

1. Place a spawner block in the world
2. Right-click with a spawn egg to add mobs to the spawn list
3. Right-click with empty hand to view spawner information
4. Shift+right-click to clear the mob list (creative mode only)

Obtain blocks via /give command:

/give @p selomolochnoe:spawner
/give @p selomolochnoe:boss_spawner
