MobDetect

A Paper-1.20.2 plugin that allows you to keep an overview of all entities in the vicinity.
It offers the possibility to count entities and to warn against too high populations.
There is also the possibility to find other players in the vicinity.

The primary idea of this plugin is to detect large clusters of entities of the same type in order to eliminate performance hogs.
