Spawn mobs naturally near/inside my custom structure

[Samaritans]

Hey,

 

I have a few custom structures that spawn throughout the world. Is there a way to check if a hostile mob is being attempted to spawn inside/near my structure, spawn another mob from my mod instead? I'm just not sure how would I check for if the the spawn attempt in near my structure or not.

 

Thanks!

You could use World#findNearestStructure to check if the structure is at the BlockPos passed in.
