I am in a server that utilizes bukkit/spigot for version 1.14.4. I have recently learned (and had previously observed) that spigot greatly reduces mob spawning, specifically, keeping the mob cap significantly emptier than normal (7-34 entities recorded in f3 screen when alone in the server), by having a reduced mob-spawn-range value (Spigot sets mob-spawn-range : 4, whereas vanilla sets mob-spawn-range : 8).
Is there a way the server's admin could change this value? If so, how?
Thanks.
