Prevent monsters from spawning

[luckyluca]

is there any way to prevent monsters from spawning in a particular area on a common-tekkit-modpack-only server? are interdiction torches preventing spawns aswell or are they only pushing away the mobs? i guess my best choice would be to hide a dimensional anchor 9x9 every 9th block, since its simulating a player?

it would be great if theres was a way which i didnt think of until now.

Thanks for your time!

I think you want bukkit plugins for that. World anchors take a lot of server resources.

Also, as always, light prevents certain spawnings.

im not sure im able to do that. right now im only running the tekkitserver hamachi build on my pc 2 play with friends and i have no clue how plugins work.

ill think about it, thank you.

edit* i realized the anchor loads chunks and not blocks. so i dont really have a problem anymore.
