These creatures will fly around peacefully and only become aggressive if a player attacks them first.<\/p>\n<p>### Why this plugin?<br \/>\nOriginally developed for my own server (hence the &#8220;Sakura&#8221; name), I decided to release this publicly after failing to find a suitable alternative. Most existing ambient phantom plugins suffer from legacy code, poor optimization, or heavy methods that drag down server performance.<\/p>\n<p>**SakuraPhantoms** was written with **performance first** in mind. The code is clean, modern, and strictly optimized to ensure it adds atmosphere without costing you TPS.<\/p>\n<p>### Features<br \/>\n*   **Passive Behavior:** Phantoms spawn naturally in the End but will not attack unless provoked.<br \/>\n*   **Highly Optimized:** Uses efficient checks and lightweight scheduling to minimize server impact. No heavy loops or unoptimized entity tracking.<br \/>\n*   **Smart Spawning:** Includes configurable limits per chunk and per player to prevent entity spam.<br \/>\n*   **Anti-Stuck System:** Includes a smart task that detects if phantoms are stuck in terrain and gently unstucks them.<br \/>\n*   **Fully Configurable:** Every aspect is customizable via `config.yml` (spawn chance, radius, height, limits, and more).<\/p>\n<details>\n<summary>Config<\/summary>\n<p>&#8220;`<\/p>\n<p>### Configuration<br \/>\nThe plugin is ready to use out of the box, but you can tweak everything:<br \/>\n*   Spawn intervals and chances.<br \/>\n*   Minimum\/Maximum spawn radius and height offsets.<br \/>\n*   Hard limits on phantoms per player\/chunk.<br \/>\n*   Anti-stuck sensitivity.# PassivePhantoms Configuration<\/p>\n<p>spawn:<br \/>\n  # Interval between spawn attempts in ticks (20 ticks = 1 second)<br \/>\n  interval-ticks: 100<br \/>\n  # Chance for spawn attempt to succeed per player (0.0 &#8211; 1.0)<br \/>\n  chance: 0.15<br \/>\n  # Maximum phantoms allowed per chunk<br \/>\n  max-per-chunk: 3<br \/>\n  # Maximum phantoms allowed around one player (in max-radius area)<br \/>\n  max-per-player: 8<br \/>\n  # Minimum distance from player for spawn (blocks)<br \/>\n  min-radius: 20<br \/>\n  # Maximum distance from player for spawn (blocks)<br \/>\n  max-radius: 40<br \/>\n  # Minimum height offset above player<br \/>\n  min-height-offset: 10<br \/>\n  # Maximum height offset above player<br \/>\n  max-height-offset: 30<br \/>\nanti-stuck:<br \/>\n  # Interval between stuck checks in ticks<br \/>\n  check-interval-ticks: 100<br \/>\n  # Minimum distance phantom must move to not be considered stuck (blocks)<br \/>\n  min-movement-distance: 2.0<br \/>\n  # Number of stuck checks before teleporting phantom<br \/>\n  max-stuck-checks: 3<br \/>\n&#8220;`<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p>### Commands &#038; Permissions<br \/>\n*   `\/sakuraphantoms reload` \u2014 Reload the configuration file.<br \/>\n*   Permission: `sakuraphantoms.reload` (Default: OP)<\/p>\n<p>![bstats](https:\/\/bstats.org\/signatures\/bukkit\/Sakura%20phantoms.svg)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lightweight, high-performance plugin that adds passive Phantoms to the End dimension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":135330,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"sakura-phantoms","_minecraft_project_id":"k5nHEdzq","_minecraft_author":"Eneryleen","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":87,"_minecraft_follows":0,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"sakura-phantoms.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":48069,"_minecraft_version_count":2,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T20:03:45.177576Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2025-12-05T03:17:05.434572Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-02-07T10:20:41.423205Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/sakura-phantoms","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":135330,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-07T23:44:53+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"371ce0703dbda791ab3eb34136a6b30b","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[87,124,89,137,127,128,129],"mod_loader":[130,132,133,134],"minecraft_version":[62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82],"class_list":["post-135329","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-adventure","mod_category-bukkit","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-mobs","mod_category-paper","mod_category-purpur","mod_category-spigot","mod_loader-bukkit","mod_loader-paper","mod_loader-purpur","mod_loader-spigot","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
