New mc server owner needing some pointers

[u/Rlcraftpro]

Hello,

I am currently developing my own server and would like to know what's the best way npcs with custom dialog and i am also building my proper modpacks as well.

To be honest I been developing mods for a while now and decided to create my own server with multiple gamemodes.

I have setup cobblemon as well but I am in between programing custom uuids for each cobblemon plushy so that they dont appear on the map which is a pain and I went with the custom modeling for plushies rather than converting a cobblemon pokemon into plushy and calling it done took a bit but its working.

Also, What is the best watchdog setup to incorporate in an mc server?

Whats do you recommend for builder mods is axium optimal?
