Removing the new plugin.

arsenic_shark:
I believe the problem my lie with the night time.

At night all villagers try to get into a house, but as they don't have the best AI's a large portion try to get into the same room. This causes say 20 villagers in a 5x5x3 area. So when the player teleports to their village the villagers get throttled.

This could cause the deaths of lots of villagers but Im not sure.

some screenshot visualization:

after bug fixed mob throttling (throttle type 2): (click to show/hide)
no point in posting the "before bug fixed" mob throttling - there are no cows left, lol.

as you can see, the bug-fixed throttling is pretty reasonable.

@ arsenic shark- yeah, if the villagers crowd themselves into one room, then they'll all die currently. i've hopefully fixed that, so it will be less apparent, but good to know.

was that chunk only loaded once?

i'm just curious if multiple loads is gonna dwindle away my herds of sheep.

for example all of my farms reside below my castle, which is my /home and main way of getting around, so every time i do /home are more and more of my sheep gonna vanish until they just happen to not be huddled in a corner/there's only 4 left?

the sheep aren't particularly smart and it took me quite a while to get enough of every color for it to be efficient, the pens are a decent size, yet all the sheep still prefer to be huddled in the corner, unfortunately it would take quite a while to farm enough wool for lets say a dragon in the sky off of 4 sheep

so what would be the affects of this "multiple loading" situation?

it just repeats the exact same process i described as throttle type 2:


--- Quote ---type 2: throttle mobs on chunk load
- when a chunk is loaded (for example, when a player first enters the chunk) every mob type will be checked. if there are more than 6 mobs of any type in a 4x4x2 radius of any other mob, [the excess mobs will be killed]

--- End quote ---

if a chunk is loaded once and you lose a bunch of sheep, if the process were to repeat itself immediately afterward for some reason, you would lose no additional sheep.

if you want more sheep to survive the slaughter, you must give them a larger area to graze so they group up less. giving mobs more space is pretty much the whole point of the plugin.

I personally like the plugin, my villagers roam freely so I haven't seen a drop in numbers, and yesterday I seen 4 slimes. Thats more than I've seen in 2 months lol
