What creatures does Colony Data Pack add?

Three main creatures: Voragers (go wild if their nest is destroyed), Crats (steal your food), and Butterflies (harmless and boost crop growth). Each one has different behaviors and ways they interact with your world.

How do I install this data pack?

What Minecraft versions does it support?

Works with 1.13.x through 1.17.1. Just download the file that matches your Minecraft version and you're good to go.

Are these creatures dangerous?

Depends. Voragers get aggressive and destructive if you destroy their nest. Crats steal from your chests and inventory. Butterflies are totally harmless and actually helpful for farming.

Can I control how many creatures spawn?

Yes. Use /scoreboard players set vora_maxcount Colony_Option 256 and change 256 to any number you want. Higher numbers mean more creatures and more destruction.

Colony Data Pack 1.17.1, 1.16.5 Download

Colony Data Pack adds small animals and insects to your Minecraft world. They mostly hang out in trees and deep forests, minding their own business. But here’s the thing, they actually interact with your environment in ways that matter.

The Creatures

Voragers

These guys are trouble if you’re not careful. Destroy their nest and they’ll go on a rampage, eating everything around them. If you want an extra challenge in survival mode, leave them be and protect their homes.

Crats

Little food thieves that actively hunt through your inventory and chests looking for snacks. Don’t be surprised to find items missing if these guys move into your base.

Butterflies

The only truly friendly member of the colony. They’re harmless and actually speed up your crop growth as they fly around. Basically free farming help.

Using the Data Pack

Need help? Type this command:

/function colony:help

Want to adjust how destructive Voragers are? Use:

/scoreboard players set vora_maxcount Colony_Option 256

Change 256 to any number you want. Higher numbers mean more activity and destruction from the creatures. Changes take a while to show up, so give it time.
