Spawn Normalization Mod (1.16.5) – A Particular Spawn Algorithm

The game was changed with the Spawn Normalization Mod (1.16.5), which made the spawn selecting element of the game more enjoyable. In Minecraft, before monsters (also known as “mobs”) can be released into the world, the player must first choose a location for them to spawn in. This entails picking an arbitrary x/y position within the confines of a chunk, and then selecting a y-level from within that column. If you were living at y=65 in a skyblock world, there is only a 1 in 66 chance that mobs will actually choose your platform to spawn on. This decreases the likelihood that they will attack you. This implies that you will have to wait longer for mobs to generate, which will ultimately result in a less thrilling experience overall. However, via the use of mathematics, we are able to modify the curves at which particular y-levels are chosen. This mod adds the capability to select a spawn algorithm from a list of defaults, then apply that method in place of the vanilla spawn algorithm. This mod is only compatible with the vanilla version of the game.

Features:

Provides the ability to select a specific spawn algorithm from a list of defaults.
Apply that instead of the vanilla spawn algorithm.
Vanilla has an equal probability for all height levels.
Surface Pref has a much higher probability to select the surface, with a higher than normal probability to select areas near the surface, dropping to lower than vanilla probabilities after about 55% max height level.
Skyblock has high preferences towards levels that are at or above 60% max height level, and near-zero percent chance to select values below 30% max height.
Two Layer has a high probability to select levels near the surface, but also a high probability to select a secondary zone at about 33% max height (allowing for surface spawns, and deep cave spawns).
Surface Only relegates all spawns to the surface level or blocks very nearby (to allow for water mobs to spawn).
