1.3.0: Thaumcraft mobs preventing other mobs from spawning

[LANMind]

Version:
1.3.0

What is the bug:
I'm running the latest version of the modpack, 1.4.1, wich isn't listed above.

No hostile mobs were spawning, so I did a /cofh killall, which killed 84 mobs, all Thaumcraft, 39 of which were those damn swarms.

Mod & Version:

Can it be repeated:


Known Fix:
/cofh killall

So Vanilla minecraft has a hard limit of hostile mobs that can spawn normally. So what I'm guessing is happening is that you're right next to a tainted biome and the tainted mobs are spawning and hitting that limit. Probably best to just move away from that biome.
