Aware Mobs!

by LinuxOSDroid

Aware Mobs! changes how common mobs behave, so monsters become smarter and some animals flee from players who carry love-enchanted weapons.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved26.1.2

What it does

Common mobs get altered behavior meant to raise the difficulty of the game's fundamentals. Animals run away from players, while monsters that attack can pass Rabies to the player, with a 1 in 25 chance per attack. Villagers are also affected, so villages are less safe than before.

Rabies is cured by drinking milk or by eating a cure crafted from one magical herb and one prize pottery sherd. The magical herb is obtained by smelting a pitcher plant. Players can also enchant a weapon other than a sword with Love to keep animals from running away.

Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric. Aware Mobs! runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric only, with 1.0.0 for 26.1.2 as the latest file, under All rights reserved and not open source.

Key features

  1. Infection from monsters

    Attacks by some monsters have a 1 in 25 chance of giving the player Rabies, which makes survival harder.

  2. Milk as a cure

    Drinking milk cures Rabies, and the cure is also available as a crafted item for players who lack milk.

  3. Magical herb recipe

    The herb needed for the cure is made by smelting a pitcher plant, so the cure depends on finding that plant.

  4. Love enchantment

    A weapon enchanted with Love, other than a sword, stops animals from running away from the player.
