MobPreSpawnEvent 5.46.0

class · pocketmine\event\entity\MobPreSpawnEvent · source

Extends Event
Implements Cancellable

Called before the natural spawner creates a mob (or a herd), like Paper's PreCreatureSpawnEvent: nothing has been created yet, so cancelling costs nothing. A plugin with its own mobs can use it to stop the server's natural spawning of some types, e.g. cancel every "minecraft:zombie" with reason SpawnReason::NATURAL.

EntityNaturalSpawnEvent follows for each mob that is created.
