Filters

Filters determine which mobs a Mob Stand will manage.

Using filters allows you to target specific mob types while ignoring others.

Each Mob Stand maintains separate filter lists for:

  • Adult Mobs
  • Baby Mobs

This provides precise control over farm behavior and mob management.


Adult Filters

Adult Filters control which adult mobs may be processed.

Only enabled adult mob types are considered by the Mob Stand.

Example:

Cow      ✓ Enabled
Pig      ✓ Enabled
Chicken  ✗ Disabled

Result:

Cows and Pigs may be processed.
Chickens are ignored.

Baby Filters

Baby Filters control which baby mobs may be processed.

This allows baby mobs to be treated differently from adults.

Example:

Baby Cow      ✗ Disabled
Adult Cow     ✓ Enabled

Result:

Adult cows may be processed.
Baby cows are ignored.

This is particularly useful for breeding operations.

Filters provide flexibility and precision.

Common uses include:

  • Separating breeding stock

  • Supporting specialized farm layouts
