About this Mod
NoMonsInMyWorld
NoMonsInMyWorld is a lightweight but powerful server-side utility for Cobblemon that gives you precise, per-world control over both Pokémon spawning and riding. Whether you need to create a Pokémon-free hub, ban specific species from a dimension, or prevent players from riding legendaries in certain worlds, this mod provides a simple, config-driven solution.
Dependencies
Features
- Per-World Spawning Rules: Create unique spawning rules for each dimension. Completely disable spawning in your hub, allow only specific types in another, and leave the main world untouched.
- Advanced Spawn Filtering: Block Pokémon using simple species names (e.g.,
cobblemon:zubat) or use powerful conditions to filter by type (type=flying), rarity (legendary=true), or attribute (shiny=true). - Per-World Riding Rules: Independently control which Pokémon can be ridden in each dimension. Completely disable riding in event worlds or blacklist specific powerful mounts from your survival worlds.
- Owned Pokémon Protection: A smart filter allows players to send out their own Pokémon, even in dimensions where wild spawns of that species are disabled.
- Live Reload: A simple command lets you apply configuration changes instantly without needing a server restart.
- 100% Server-Side: No installation is required for players to join your server.
Commands
The mod is designed to be managed primarily through its configuration file, with a single command for convenience.
| Command | Permission | Description |
|---|---|---|
/nomonsinmyworld reload |
nomonsinmyworld.reload |
Reloads the config.json file from disk, applying any changes immediately. |
Configuration
NoMonsInMyWorld uses a single, easy-to-understand configuration file located at config/nomonsinmyworld/config.json. The entire configuration is managed within a worlds object, where you can add an entry for each dimension you want to control.
Example Configuration
{
"version": "1.0.0",
"worlds": {
// Rules for the Overworld
"minecraft:overworld": {
"spawning": {
"disallowedSpecies": ["cobblemon:rattata", "cobblemon:pidgey"],
"exclusionConditions": ["type=ghost", "shiny=true"],
"disableAll": false,
"excludeOwnedPokemon": true
},
"riding": {
"disallowedSpecies": ["cobblemon:charizard"],
"exclusionConditions": ["legendary=true"],
"disableAll": false,
"excludeOwnedPokemon": false
}
},
// Rules for a hub world (e.g., from another mod)
"some_mod:hub_world": {
"spawning": {
"disableAll": true, // Master switch to block all wild spawns
"excludeOwnedPokemon": true // Still allows players to send out their own Pokémon
},
"riding": {
"disableAll": true // Master switch to block all riding
}
}
}
}
Spawning Control (spawning section)
This section controls which wild Pokémon are allowed to spawn in a dimension.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
disableAll |
The master switch. If true, no wild Pokémon will spawn in this world, and all other spawning rules are ignored. |
disallowedSpecies |
A list of Pokémon species to block by name. Example: ["cobblemon:zubat", "cobblemon:magikarp"]. |
exclusionConditions |
(Powerful!) A list of conditions used to filter spawns. The syntax is key=value. This allows you to block entire categories of Pokémon. Examples: ["type=dragon"], ["legendary=true"], ["shiny=true"]. |
excludeOwnedPokemon |
A critical safety feature. If true (default), the spawn-blocking rules will not apply to Pokémon being sent out of a Poké Ball by a player. This prevents the mod from interfering with a player's own team. |
Riding Control (riding section)
This section controls which Pokémon players are allowed to mount and ride in a dimension.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
disableAll |
The master switch. If true, players will be unable to mount or ride any Pokémon in this world. |
disallowedSpecies |
A list of specific Pokémon species that cannot be ridden. Perfect for banning certain powerful or large mounts. Example: ["cobblemon:rayquaza"]. |
exclusionConditions |
A list of conditions to prevent riding. This is extremely useful for creating server-wide rules. Example: ["legendary=true"] would prevent anyone from riding a legendary Pokémon in this dimension. |
excludeOwnedPokemon |
This is typically set to false for riding, as the intention is to control the player's ability to mount their own Pokémon. If true, the riding rules would be ignored. |
