Creeper Spores

This add-on allows creepers to reproduce by exploding and releasing spores that grow into new creepers, adding more challenge and fun to the game.

When a creeper explodes, it releases microscopic spores that grow into new creepers. At first, these spores are hidden and invisible, but over time, they begin to grow from the area where the creeper has exploded. The crater will look like the one shown in the image below.

The 'Creeper Spores' block has eight growth stages before maturing into a living creeper. The whole process usually takes between 110 seconds and 15 minutes for creepers to mature. Once the creeper has fully grown, the same spores block repeats the cycle and grows another creeper.

NOTE:

• This add-on only works in version 1.21.5x. (Ex. 1.21.50, 1.21.51)
• Turn on Upcoming Creator Features and Beta APIs experimental toggles for the add-on to work.
