Mimics Overhaul Mod extends Artifacts with custom spawn rules for mimics. It gives normal loot chests inside game structures a random chance to turn into monsters when you open them. This adds a fun surprise to your adventures because you never know if a chest holds treasure or a trap.

Mimics Overhaul Mod

Features:

  • Gives every chest in specific structures a chance to spawn a mimic monster.
  • Targets chests in strongholds, mineshafts, ancient cities, fortresses, bastions, and pyramids.
  • Ignores chests you place yourself and double chests to keep your base safe.
  • Checks if the chest has new loot, so chests you already opened stay normal.
  • Lets you change the spawn chances in the settings file.

Configuration:

  • allowedStructures: Add IDs of custom structures to make mimics spawn there too.

How to Use:

  1. Find a generated structure like a desert pyramid or a stronghold.
  2. Walk up to a loot chest that no one has opened yet.
  3. Right-click to open the chest and see if it holds loot or a monster.
  4. Open the Mimics Overhaul Mod settings file to change how often these monsters appear.
