Random mob spawners give you complete control over how mobs are supposed
to spawn in your worlds. You can fully customize where, how often and
how many mobs spawn and make your spawning system precise by utilizing a
variety of condition-options.
Important Differences
---------------------
There are major randomspawn options that are important to distinguish
between:
-**Action: REPLACE**
- The replace-action is used to replace mobs that are spawned by
minecraft's very own random spawning system with your custom
mythic mob creations.
- This allows for full control over minecraft's spawning system.
- If Minecraft's random spawners are turned off on your server, examply by setting gamerule doMobSpawning false, this action will not do anything.
<!-- -->
-**Action: ADD**
- The add-action will utilize MythicMobs' very own spawning algorithms which will, in a similar fashion to Minecraft's spawning system, generate random spawn points around players.
- However these spawn points, as opposed to Minecraft's, will be generated without any conditions allowing you to spawn mobs in any light level and at any location.
- Detailed configurations as to how these spawn points are generated can be found in MythicMobs' configuration file "config.yml".
-**Please note** Action: ADD only generates points around survival & adventure mode players and if there is only a location present.
- If a condition is used that needs an entity it will throw an exception. In case of the biome condition you can use the Biomes: option!
<!-- -->
-**Action: DENY**
- The Deny action can be used to prevent mobs from spawning.
- Any mob that matches the conditions of a RandomSpawn configured with DENY will not spawn.

-**Action: SCALE**
