About Skeleton Horse Spawn
From Modrinth☠🐴 Allows skeleton horses to spawn naturally with a skeleton riding it and other tweaks.
Skeleton Horse Spawn is a minimalistic configurable mod which allows skeleton horses to spawn naturally with a skeleton riding it. Whenever a skeleton spawns, it has a chance to be spawned as a rider. You can configure it to only spawn on the surface and if it should burn in daylight.
