🐝 PollinatorPlus

PollinatorPlus is a lightweight Spigot/Paper plugin that fixes natural mob
behaviors being blocked by other plugins — most notably PlotSquared.

Developed by Baumkrieger69.

❓ Why does this plugin exist?

PlotSquared cancels many entity events inside and around plots to protect
builds and prevent griefing. Unfortunately this also blocks completely natural
and harmless mob behaviors:

Mob	Blocked Behavior	Event
🐝 Bee	Entering beehive / nest	EntityEnterBlockEvent
🐝 Bee	Spawning from beehive	CreatureSpawnEvent
🐸 Frog	Laying frogspawn eggs	EntityChangeBlockEvent
🐸 Frog	Hatching from eggs	CreatureSpawnEvent
🐢 Turtle	Laying turtle eggs	EntityChangeBlockEvent
🐢 Turtle	Hatching from eggs	CreatureSpawnEvent

PollinatorPlus listens at HIGHEST priority after PlotSquared has cancelled
these events and simply un-cancels them — so the mobs behave naturally again
without compromising plot protection.

🔧 How it works

PollinatorPlus registers all its events at HIGHEST priority with
ignoreCancelled = false. This means it runs after PlotSquared
(which uses NORMAL or HIGH priority) and can selectively un-cancel
only the specific harmless natural behaviors listed above.
Plot protection for players remains completely intact. ✅

🧪 Tested Configuration

This plugin was developed and tested under the following specific server setup.
Other configurations may or may not work as expected.

Setting	Value	Where
doMobSpawning gamerule	true	Minecraft Gamerule
Mob Spawning	deny	WorldGuard Region Flag

⚠️ Important: The plugin was tested with mob spawning enabled via gamerule
but blocked by WorldGuard on a per-region basis, combined with PlotSquared.
This is the exact setup it was built to fix.
Behavior under other configurations (e.g. doMobSpawning false, no WorldGuard,
different protection plugins) has not been tested and may differ.
