HyvoraCombatMobs Update 1.1.0
This update introduces a new spawn rule system, allowing custom mobs to spawn more naturally and in specific areas instead of being limited mainly to manual command spawning.

• Added new permission: hyvora.combatmobs.spawnrules
  

Spawn Rule System
You can now define where custom mobs are allowed to spawn by using:

• Worlds
  
  
• Biomes
  
  
• Custom regions
  
  
• Minimum and maximum Y-levels
  
  
• Player distance settings
  
  
• Mob caps per world
  
  
• Spawn chances and weighted mob lists
  

This makes it possible to create custom areas such as frozen mountains, dark forests, caves, boss zones or elite mob regions.

Natural Spawn Replacement
The plugin can now optionally replace vanilla mob spawns with custom Combat Mobs.

For example, a normal zombie or skeleton spawn can now be replaced by one of your configured custom mobs depending on the configured chance and rules.

Improvements

• /cmob reload now also reloads spawn rules
  
  
• Better separation between manual spawning and automatic spawning
  
  
• Custom mobs can now be used more naturally in survival, RPG, dungeon or adventure worlds
  
  
• Improved foundation for future arena, dungeon and boss-zone systems
  

Notes
This update does not remove the existing manual spawn system.
You can still spawn mobs manually with:

/cmob spawn <id>

The new spawn rule system is optional and can be enabled or disabled in the configuration.
