About

Cobblemon PokéSnacks Controls is a lightweight addon that gives players and server owners more control over Cobblemon's native PokéSnack system.

PokéSnacks can make certain Pokémon too easy to obtain when multiple snacks overlap. This mod introduces a configurable active snack limit, an automatic Standby system, and detailed balancing options for every supported native PokéSnack effect.

Manage attraction bonuses, control rare Pokémon chances, monitor active snacks and customize the experience without replacing Cobblemon's original mechanics.

No new blocks, items or spawning systems. Just better control over the PokéSnacks you already use.

✨ What It Adds

• Active PokéSnack limits in overlapping areas
• 2 active PokéSnacks by default per overlapping group
• Automatic Standby queue for additional snacks
• Standby snacks pause their timers and preserve remaining bites

• Admin command to create native PokéSnacks using up to 8 bait ingredients
• In-game configuration and server-side settings
• Live configuration reload without restarting the server
• Designed for singleplayer and multiplayer servers

🍪 Smart Standby System

Players can place as many PokéSnacks as they want, but only a configurable number can actively operate within overlapping areas.

By default, 2 PokéSnacks can be active at the same time.

Additional snacks automatically enter Standby.

While in Standby:

• The snack stops progressing its timer.
• No bites are consumed.
• Its remaining duration and uses are preserved.
• It automatically activates when an active slot becomes available.

The system uses Cobblemon's native PokéSnack attraction areas to determine which snacks overlap.

You can also choose whether the oldest or newest placed snacks activate first, and configure whether over-capacity snacks should pause.

⚙️ Fully Configurable Effects

Control all supported native PokéSnack bonuses individually.

• Attraction: Pokémon Types and Egg Groups
• Spawning: Rarity, EV Yield filters and encounter bonuses
• Pokémon Stats: IVs, Natures, Levels and Friendship
• Special Pokémon: Shiny, Alpha, Hidden Ability and Marks
• Other Attributes: Gender, Pokémon Size and Drops
• Timing: PokéSnack Bite Time

Each category can preserve its original behavior, use custom multipliers, apply supported caps or be disabled.

All effects continue using Cobblemon's native spawning and PokéSnack systems.

🔍 Jade Integration

When Jade is installed, PokéSnacks can display additional information directly in their tooltips.

• Current Active or Standby status
• Active snack count and configured capacity
• Queue position for server operators
• Current PokéSnack bait effects
• Latest Pokémon successfully attracted
• Pokémon form, Shiny status, Alpha status and Marks

The latest spawn information is tracked for the current server session.

Jade is optional. The core balancing system works without it.

✨ Rare Pokémon Alerts

Enable optional notifications when your PokéSnack attracts a special Pokémon.

Supported alerts include:

• ✨ Shiny Pokémon
• 👑 Alpha Pokémon
• 🏅 Marked Pokémon

Notifications are sent to the online player who placed the PokéSnack.

Rare spawn alerts are disabled by default and can be enabled in the server configuration.
