Pause and Resume

The Pause feature allows you to temporarily disable a Mob Stand without removing it or changing its configuration.

This is useful when performing maintenance, redesigning farms, or temporarily stopping resource generation.


What Pause Does

When a Mob Stand is paused:

Processing Stops

The Mob Stand remains fully configured but will not manage mobs until processing is resumed.

All settings remain intact, including:

  • Radius
  • Leave Alive
  • Adult Filters
  • Baby Filters
  • Gravity Settings

What Pause Does Not Do

Pausing a Mob Stand does not:

  • Remove the Mob Stand
  • Reset any settings
  • Change ownership
  • Change filter configuration
  • Convert the Mob Stand back into an Armor Stand

Think of Pause as an on/off switch for processing.


Pausing a Mob Stand

Open:

Main Menu
    ↓
Pause / Resume

Click the Pause button.

Once paused, the Mob Stand will stop managing nearby mobs.


Resuming a Mob Stand

Open:

Main Menu
    ↓
Pause / Resume

Click the button again.

The Mob Stand immediately returns to normal operation using its existing configuration.


Why Use Pause?

Farm Maintenance

Temporarily stop processing while making changes to a farm.

Testing Configurations

Experiment with settings without permanently changing farm behavior.

Resource Management

Disable production until resources are needed.

Building Projects

Pause processing while relocating or redesigning a farm area.


Visual Indicators

The Pause button displays the current state of the Mob Stand.

Processing Enabled

The Mob Stand is actively managing nearby mobs.

Processing Disabled

The Mob Stand is paused and will not process mobs.


Tips

Pause Before Major Changes

If you're redesigning a farm, pause the Mob Stand first.

No Reconfiguration Required

After resuming, all previous settings remain unchanged.

Safe to Leave Paused

A Mob Stand can remain paused indefinitely until processing is resumed.
