This datapack makes use of the new scale attribute added in snapshot 23w51a (and is thus only usable from that version on) to give each mob in the world a **slightly different size**, reaching from **80% to 120%** of the mobs original size!
\n### Config
\nYou can configure the minimum and maximum size mobs can get when spawning in by running `\/scoreboard players set %min_size mob_variety.config ` or `\/scoreboard players set %max_size mob_variety.config ` to modify these values respectively.
\n* is used as a placeholder for the size (in percent!!) you want the mob to be*
\nAfter running this you need to run `\/reload` for the changes to apply <\/p>\n

**DISCLAIMER:** While the datapack itself should not have any noticable impact on performance, having too large mobs in your world will, so be careful when messing with values<\/p>\n
