Current features
- Configurable mob health limit.
- Respects animal protection plugins such as GriefPrevention
- Compatible with all trading plugins.
- Very simple, throw an egg at a mob and it will be turned into a spawn egg.
- Permissions support.
- Configurable catch chance.
- Configurable cost (vault support, or items).
- Explosion effects.
Installation and requirements
Vault is not required unless you intend to use it
Download the jar file and the configuration file will be generated on the first startup.

Posted Mar 14, 20121. This does work with EnderDragons, hopefully.
2. Could you make it so colored sheep get their color back then they are respawned using their spawn egg?
3. Is there an option to have the mob disappear at a certain chance even if you fail on catching it? And maybe that you get damage if you fail, like if the mob defends itself from being catched.

Looks more like FalseBook is not handling the event correctly.

I wasn't blaming you for anything, I was just saying I only checked recently updated plugins so I didn't find it.

I'm not sure how few updates could be the reason for you not being able to find it. It's almost as if you blame me for you making something that was already done :).
Also few updates just means that there's no bugs, and no feature requests.

I didn't copy the idea, I checked first before I started developing and he hadn't updated anything in almost 2 and a half weeks so I didn't find it. And how is this one better?

We're using spawnchance as to keep game balance in check, chicken should spawn only if you really miss the mob and hit some block (ie no "miss" because of chance setting).
This can be somewhat worked around with NoLagg or NoSpawn by disabling spawns of overworld creatures in nether altogether, however that does not prevent server overloads because of chicken spam in overworld.

It's already working per default that if you catch a mob there won't be a chicken spawned.

Posted Feb 14, 2012I love this plugin, but I have one request. Is it possible to disable in config Chicken spawning, when trying to catch a mob? Since this plugin we have insane amount of chickens all around the server from people trying to catch mobs.
