\n### Timers
\nTimer for difficulty is per player, and increases every minecraft day (20 minutes). sleeping does NOT forward this timer. Max difficulty is day 100+ and difficulty does not increase after that.
\n### Commands
\nTo test out how hard the spiders are, use functions spid:day25, spid:day50, spid:day75, spid:day100 or use command: \/scoreboard players set
\n### Installing
\nLike your ordinary datapack, put zip file in datapacks folder of your world.
\n### Unistalling
\nRun function skel:uninstall and remove the datapack from datapacks folder
\n### Other
\nI am planning on making a version of this datapack for each common mob, then making a datapack consisting of all of them (This is the fifth mob improvement datapack I made).
\n### Farms
\nBecause mobs only receive improvement when 32 blocks away or closer to a player, automatic mob farms will still work fine, and you dont need to adjust the falling height or killing chambers.<\/p>\nHere are all the datapacks “X improve over time” I made:<\/summary>\n
