Hey CD! I’ve been a long term fan of this addon you’ve developed. Because of this I would love to suggest an idea. The spores seem to easy to avoid. Would you make it so you either need to destroy it with a special item/method, make the spore textures less noticeable for longer (probably by changing the textures slightly), or make a chance for a creeper explosion to spawn a source of some kind. This source could be called a Living Fungus block (when I say source I mean something that acts a little like the sculk catalyst), it would be cool if it would try to camouflage itself to protect itself. Either by changing its texture to that of a block nearby or by living in the creeper hole it spawned in and covering the top of it with natural blocks. This so called “Living Fungus” no matter which way you decide to implement camouflage, if you implement it at all, will spawn spores every once and a while. Eventually, if untended, could become an extremely dangerous area to visit because the amount of creepers that could spawn.
(Just got another idea; I hope you like the ideas.) You could make it so the living fungus could spread up to like 10 blocks from the source, but only if the block it would attempt to spread to is adjacent to air (This would make it appear as if the spores have been blown around by the wind and landed randomly in the area, instead of spreading spores through the ground). When a living fungus block is spawned and it starts to spread spores, and after more than one spore has summoned a creeper, there could be a chance to summon a creeper cocoon block. This block would be dormant until a player passes it in a 5 block radius. When activated it will wait a certain amount of time then spawn a creeper and replace itself with an “opened cocoon” block (this would be obtainable with silk touch and would just be a decorative block).
I hope you like my suggestions. Again, love your addon, thank you so much for your work.

Hi, thank you for your suggestions and for being a fan! I'm not sure if you have tried out the new update, but the update changed some of the mechanics of the spores block. Previously, spores used to spawn instantly when a creeper explodes, which makes them easier to avoid, and the way I solved it is by making those spore blocks invisible at first and will only eventually pop out later. Another change I made was to make the spore block continuously grow more creepers, where when the creeper spores block has completely turned into an actual creeper, that same block will stay and grow another creeper. Previously, these spores would only grow one creeper, but the change I implemented made them stay and grow more creepers.

w mod I can confirm it does in fact work

Author I really like this mod please update to 1.21.30 and there is an idea about of course not the dispute through which mobs will appear but there are other options like a skeleton when you kill it it twitches
Bones appear from it, which if not removed, will gather and a skeleton will appear again (I hope the author understood the idea)
