Frequently asked questions

How do I get started with this mod after installing it?

Just place a campfire down and it works immediately with default settings. No items, no crafting, no setup needed — the protection zone activates as soon as the campfire is lit.

Does the campfire need to be lit to stop mob spawns?

Yes, an unlit campfire does not provide protection. Light it with flint and steel or a fire charge, and the zone becomes active.

What counts as a hostile mob for this mod?

Anything classified as EntityClassification.Monster, which includes vanilla mobs like zombies, skeletons, and creepers, plus modded mobs that use the same classification. Passive and neutral mobs are unaffected.

Does this mod stop mobs from walking into my campfire area, or just spawning there?

It only prevents spawning — mobs that already exist or wander in from outside the radius can still enter. You still need walls or lighting to keep existing mobs out.
