Authorize Bloodshed

by SwanX1

Authorize Bloodshed changes how hostile mobs behave and equip themselves, adding equipment slots, attribute and effect modifiers, and new AI goals for Endermen, Creepers, Witches and raiders.

ForgeServer-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20 – 1.20.6

What it does

The mod targets hostile mobs. Mobs can receive items in their equipment slots, and those items can carry custom NBT data and enchantments. Attribute modifiers set the value of an entity's attributes, and effect modifiers add status effects to mobs. Together these let a pack define how a given mob is armed and what it carries into a fight.

Behavior changes cover several mobs. Endermen chase more slowly or more quickly depending on configuration, which gives a player room to get away. Rabbits panic and avoid the player, and a hurt rabbit is modified. Creepers stay close to the target while they swell up, and a Creeper far from its target sprints toward it before exploding.

Installation is Forge only, with files for the 1.20 – 1.20.6 range. Authorize Bloodshed is server-side only, so players join without installing it. Its configuration defaults are meant to keep gameplay more interesting, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source. Source code and an issue tracker are public.
