Mob Spawning

By default, PGM disables all mob spawning. The mobs module allows this behavior to be customized to allow spawning of specific mobs. This module makes use of the <spawn>, <mob> and <entity> filters to only allow specific mobs to spawn. Mob spawns can also be filtered against any other filter type including regions.
