Change Mob Spawn Limits

In this guide, we will walk you through the process of changing mob spawn limits in the Minecraft server settings. Adjusting mob spawn limits can help control the number of specific mobs in your world, ensuring smooth gameplay and reducing potential server lag.

By adjusting the mob spawn limits, you have more control over the number of mobs in your server world. This can be particularly useful for larger servers or servers running on limited hardware, as controlling mob numbers can help optimize performance. Always remember to monitor the server after changes to ensure that gameplay remains balanced and enjoyable for all players.

This methodology only works for Paper and its derivatives such as Pufferfish, Purpur, etc.
