Positional Spawner has been reworked, several problems were resolved, and the format of the json config was changed, resulting in more flexibility. Planning to release it on curseforge soon.

I finally released Underworld, but had to change the name because it was taken - now it's called "High world". You can get it here - https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/high-world.

You are probably right, when I get a chance I will release it on curseforge.

It was my fault, I screwed up my math. Now I changed spawning algorithm, and it works. Next version ~ But if you notice lag during this mod's work, you should decrease the "spawnRadius" variable - the higher it is, the more lag there may be ("can't keep up" messages).

Is there any suspicious output in the console?

Hmmm... I will investigate this.

For performance reasons, the mod doesn't search for blocks specified in the files - it rather takes a random position around the player, then checks if a block in that position is one of specified, then rolls the RNG and spawns mob on success. This means that chance of specified mobs to spawn is...

okay

A prototype is ready. I added few settings to control the spawning, and added a "max_light" key to Json config which defines the maximum light level for given group of mobs to spawn. Here is an example file: [ { "minecraft:sand" : { "chance": 50, "max_light" : 15...

Do you mind if I use my library for this mod? I've managed to design a block-based spawning system with a config similar to your example, but I made it in Json - this way you can define unlimited entries, for example: [ { "minecraft:sand" : { "chance": 80, "entities": [...

So, basically, make it possible for specified blocks turn into a custom mob spawner? For example, have a chance of random sand block be replaced by said spawner (without spread ability)?

Are you asking for several variants of PE blocks? Fixed mobs spawning without items.

New version uploaded.

Fixed(?) using wrong variable, and slightly changed block spread algorithm: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kCh4GCtOsDH5SE_jUdCMol06V9J50Xwj

Damn, I blame variable names. There are two variables in minecraft for getting world time, one is time of day, other is time of world. But for some stupid reason in code first one is named "total world time" and second is named just "world time". Of course, I chose the "total world time"...

Fixed version: 0.5: fixed crash caused by zero in random rolls; added an option to cap entity count; https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NAPN2ITKKtOXrX6RKlzf65EEQr3HYLOI

It should work using total world time - meaning the time-based percentages will be applied taking elapsed days into account immediately. There is no entity count check currently. I recommend backing up worlds before updating to this version.

Alright, I hopefully implemented #3 correctly, here is a new version: 0.4: decreased minimum possible spawn and spread rates to 0 percent; fixed entities being spawned in same space; added options for increasing mob spawn and earth spread rates over time...

1) Yes, done. 2) Not sure - the tick count will have to be stored somewhere, either in tile entity or the chunk. Or I can make the block tickable non-randomly and add setting for time between ticks. By the way, what are you using to spawn the earth blocks? 3) This will have to be saved to world...

I do remember factorization, but those aren't simple ideas...
