Description
Ever been frustrated by raids that spawn [b]right next to your base[/b]? This mod changes raid behavior! Enemies will no longer spawn at your walls — instead, they'll come from other, fairer locations on the map.
The mod analyzes your building layout and blocks raid spawns near your base, redirecting them to a safe distance.
