Caged Mobs - Automated Creature Breeding in Cages
Tired of constantly hunting mobs in Minecraft? The Caged Mobs mod offers a revolutionary approach to resource gathering - place creatures in special cages and automatically collect their drops!
Main Features
This mod completely transforms the mob farming process. Instead of endless hunting, you create cages where creatures will breed and leave their resources. The system is optimized and doesn't cause lag even with a large number of cages.
The ability to contain bosses is especially impressive - Wither, Ender Dragon, Warden, and Elder Guardian. Now you can safely farm even the most dangerous creatures!
Configuration and Compatibility
Modpack creators will appreciate the flexible server settings: you can blacklist specific entities, items, and even disable hopping cages. For players with less powerful computers, there are client-side options like disabling particles.
The mod supports over 75 entities from vanilla Minecraft and popular mods, as well as 16 unique environments with various growth modifiers. The upgrade system allows adding features like automatic cooking, lightning strikes, speed boosts, and fortune enhancements.
Getting Started
Create a regular cage for manual collection or a hopping cage that automatically stores drops in the inventory below. Then add a suitable environment:
- Hay - for animals and neutral mobs
- Stone - for monsters
- Magma - for Nether inhabitants
- Sand - for desert and underwater creatures
- Snow - for cold biome mobs
- End Stone - for End entities
Use a DNA Sampler to capture the desired entity. Some powerful mobs require stronger samplers. After that, watch as your creatures grow and produce resources.
Mod Compatibility
Caged Mobs uses the datapack system with ready-made JSON files for entities and environments. Mod developers can easily add support through their mod's data folder.
Supported mods include: Twilight Forest, Fire and Ice: Dragons, Tinkers' Construct, Botania, Quark, Alex's Mobs, and many others. To add support for other mods, use datapacks and CraftTweaker.
The mod integrates with JEI, HWYLA, Jade, and The One Probe for convenient information viewing.
