Need help diasabling mob spawns per zone with Forge Essentials.

[SuiXi3D]

Hi there,

I'm running the latest version of Forge Essentials on a server running FTB Ultimate version 1.1.2. I've got the basics of protecting zones down, but I'd like to know if it's even possible to disallow mobs from spawning in a zone. I'd like to keep my spawn area free of any mobs without having to put torches everywhere. Any help would be much appreciated.

That didn't really help. I understand that the permissions have to be applied to a group or player, and those permissions are only allowed or denied per zone... I don't understand how applying the protection..mobspawn.natural.[whatever] denies spawns per zone. Wouldn't that only disallow that group or player from spawning mobs in a zone? I want to prevent mobs from spawning at all in a zone.

I don't know how it works, I didn't write that part of the mod, all I know is that it's there and it works.

You can set the perm on the _ZONE_ group to make it apply to the zone regardless of a players group. For example "/p group _ZONE_ deny ForgeEssentials.Protection.mobSpawn.natural.Enderman spawn" will prevent Endermen from spawning in a zone named "spawn".

I tried setting the perm on the _ZONE_ group, and it still didn't work. I typed it exactly as you put there for every overworld mob. Everything still spawned in the zone.

have you changed "B:enableMobCheck=false" to true in the protection config?
