Description

GlymeraSaurians

Awakens Hytale's hidden Saurian race — a hostile tribe with unique lootable weapons.

Deep inside Hytale's game files sleeps an entire race: the Saurians. Fully modeled, fully animated, with three class outfits and their own Adamantite weapon line — but Hypixel never wired them up. They have no AI role, no spawn entry, and their weapons have no recipe, no loot table and no merchant anywhere in the game. We checked every single file. This plugin wakes them up.

Features

A hostile tribe, spawning naturally

Saurians spawn through Hytale's native ambient spawn system — they appear around players in the wild exactly like boars or deer, no timers, no tricks. Four variants roam the world:

Variant Look Health Weapon in hand
Saurian green skin 50 unarmed
Saurian Hunter helmet, feather ornaments 60 Adamantite Saurian Spear
Saurian Rogue hood, chest wrap 55 Adamantite Saurian Daggers
Saurian Warrior heavy armor 80 Adamantite Saurian Saber

They chase, circle, back off and strike — real melee combat AI. They fight as a tribe and never attack each other.

Unique weapons, loot only

The Adamantite Saurian weapons (Rare, item level 40) cannot be obtained in survival any other way — no recipe, no chest loot, no trader. Killing Saurians is the only source:

  • Hunter: 15 % chance to drop the Spear (throwable!)
  • Rogue: 15 % chance to drop the Daggers
  • Warrior: 12 % chance to drop the Saber
  • Green Saurian: 5 % chance to drop the Daggers

For creative builders, the Daggers are also added to the creative menu (Saber and Spear are already listed there by the base game — just unreachable in survival).

Full admin control (config.json, no restart needed)

{
  "worldWhitelist": ["default"],
  "spawnChancePercent": 100,
  "biomes": { "Env_Zone1_Forests": true, "...": true, "Env_Zone4_Jungles": true }
}
  • worldWhitelist — Saurians only spawn naturally in listed worlds (default preconfigured)
  • spawnChancePercent — throttle natural spawns from 100 down to 0
  • biomes — enable/disable every environment individually (all Zone 1 biomes + Zone 4 jungles, default all on)

Apply changes live with /saurian reload.

Admin commands (OP only)

  • /saurian — spawn all four variants in front of you (preview/testing)
  • /saurian clear — remove all command-spawned Saurians
  • /saurian count — count Saurians in loaded chunks, with distance to the nearest
  • /saurian tp — teleport to the nearest Saurian
  • /saurian reload — reload the config

Clean by design

Naturally spawned Saurians despawn with their chunk like ambient wildlife — they never pile up in your world save. No dependencies, one self-contained JAR.

Installation

Drop GlymeraSaurians-1.0.0.jar into your server's mods/ folder and restart. The config file is created on first boot at mods/Glymera_GlymeraSaurians/config.json.

Changelog

GlymeraSaurians - Changelog

v3.0.0 (2026-08-28) — Hytale 0.6.0 (Update 6)

  • Rebuilt for Hytale 0.6.0 (Update 6). Requires server 0.6.0 or newer; this version does not run on 0.5.x, and older versions of this plugin do not run on 0.6.0.
  • Migrated to the 0.6.0 APIs (network protocol hytale/3, new command-permission API, block/chunk/entity API changes). Everything that was open to players before is open to players again.
  • Upgrade: delete the old jar from mods/, drop in the new one and keep the plugin's data folder — configs and saved data carry over unchanged. Restart the server.

v2.0.0 - Night Log-Spam Fix (2026-07-12)

  • Fixed massive server log spam at night ([NPC|P] Invalid utility slot 0. Max is -1, Min is -1, up to ~1 million lines / ~85 MB per day on a running server).
  • Cause: the Saurian roles inherit from the game's Template_Intelligent, whose parameter NighttimeOffhandSlot defaults to 0 (intended for NPCs that hold a torch or lantern at night). Saurians carry no off-hand items and have no usable off-hand slots, so the inherited "equip night item" behavior failed - and logged a warning - on every AI cycle during in-game night. Since Saurians never sleep (WakingPeriod 0-24), this ran all night long, even with no players online.
  • Fix: all four roles (Saurian, Hunter, Rogue, Warrior) now set NighttimeOffhandSlot: -1, which disables the night off-hand behavior branch entirely.
  • No gameplay change: Saurians never had anything to equip at night - spawning, combat, drops and config behave exactly as in v1.0.0.

v1.0.0 - Initial Release (2026-07-06)

  • New hostile race: the Saurians - four variants (Saurian, Hunter, Rogue, Warrior) with individual health, damage and weapons, brought to life from dormant game assets that ship with Hytale but are never spawned by the base game.
  • Natural world spawning in all Zone 1 biomes (Forests, Plains, Mountains, Swamps, Azure, Autumn, Shores) and Zone 4 Jungles.
  • Config (config.json): world whitelist, global spawn chance percentage, per-biome toggles; reload live with /saurian reload.
  • Loot-only weapons: Adamantite Saurian Spear (Hunter, 15%), Daggers (Rogue 15%, base Saurian 5%) and Saber (Warrior, 12%) drop from slain Saurians and cannot be crafted.
  • Admin commands (OP-only): /saurian (preview spawn), /saurian clear, /saurian count, /saurian tp, /saurian reload.
Public — visible to everyone. No account needed.
