How to make a modified mob spawn randomly on the map?
I'm doing a RPG in minecraft with some friends but we don't know how to make a modified mob spawn randomly on the map. We have a mob, and we have set it’s name, attributes, and other data. But we don’t know how to get it in a random location.
We are playing in Minecraft JE 1.16.1.
Use /summon
to summon the entity normally. But immediately after, run the following /spreadplayers
command:
/spreadplayers <centerX> <centerZ> 0.0 <maxRange> false @e[name="THE_MOB_TO_ACT_UPON"]
Replace the following things:
-
centerX
andcenterZ
: The centre of your arena. -
maxRange
: How far from the centre can your entity be? The area is a square radius. - The target selector at the end: Replace with a target selector that will target the entity that you've already summoned.
