why is the mob spawning changed in aternos servers?

Mobs spawn next to torches a lot, a skeleton spawned in a lit-up area and killed me, I actually saw 2 zombies spawn next to a torch, a creeper spawned in a lit-up area and nearly killed me, etc.

Oh yeah and mobs always spawn within 24 blocks of me

why does this happen

also its very infuriating because I had a lot of levels that took me 3 hours to get, then I died because of a skeleton that spawned in a lit-up area and within 24 blocks of me

We don't modify spawning behavior.

It's probably related to your installed software, settings, plugins etc.

So then another 2 creepers spawn right next to me and nearly kill me? Explain that

And we only have quality of life datapacks, such as multiplayer sleep, old fishing loot, tool durability ping, etc.

Quote from Roman

Which software&Version is installed on your server?

Any plugins installed?

What is the address of the server in question?

Sounds like a friend trolling you

The server is completely survival, vanilla, only a few datapacks

And the ip is industrialcraftss.aternos.me
