For Developers:

If you'd like to add new mob variants, you can add them through a datapack under data/yourmodid/nomansland/mob_variants/variant_type/variant.json variant_type being one of the above. Currently, you cannot add new variant types.

Most variant json files are structured like this:

{
  "texture": "yourmodid:entity/mob_variants/variant",
  "weight": 1,
  "biomes": "#yourmodid:entity/biome_tag"
}```

-# `biomes` is an optional holder set of biomes, without it the mob variant will be weighted in every biome

However, this varies from type to type according to what textures are needed, refer to the source code for examples.
