Mobs only spawn at night, and "despawn" at day.
You also get a few seconds of darkness at when night starts and a few seconds of night vision when daytime starts, so you can keep track of the time even while caving without a clock.

It will only despawn entities that:

  • Are in the nocturnalmobs:hostiles tag
  • Are in the overworld
  • Do not have the {PersistenceRequired:1b} nbt (this includes mobs with nametags and those that have picked up items)
  • Are not mounting an entity (careful with chicken jokeys!)

By default, the mobs in the nocturnalmobs:hostiles tag are:

  • zombies
  • zombie villagers
  • husks
  • drowneds
  • skeletons
  • strays
  • spiders
  • cave spiders
  • creepers
  • endermans
  • phantoms
  • slimes
  • witches other mobs must be added via datapacks

You may disable the darkness and night vision by executing these commands:

  • /function nocturnalmobs:config/disable_night_alert
  • /function nocturnalmobs:config/disable_day_alert

and re-enable them using:

  • /function nocturnalmobs:config/enable_night_alert
  • /function nocturnalmobs:config/enable_day_alert
