Better Entity Control
With Better Entity Control, server owners and players can change the health, damage, speed, armor, knockback and gravity of mobs and their projectiles.
What it does
Better Entity Control lets the attributes of entities be edited, including health, damage, speed, armor and knockback scale. Projectiles such as arrows, fireballs and throwable items can have their damage, speed, gravity and knockback adjusted too. Shot projectiles from a configured mob inherit its settings automatically, and changes apply to entities already in the world as well as to newly spawned ones.
The mod is controlled with commands, and a set of entitycontrol subcommands covers entities, projectiles, reset and a list of configured entries. Its commands and messages are available in Russian and English. Installation needs Fabric API on every loader it supports, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.21 – 1.21.11 across 12 release versions, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
The mod also includes some playful content: a right-click on a chicken with a configurable transformation item, and a diamond that starts glowing and drops items at a configurable interval. Its latest file is 1.0.1 for 1.21.11, released 2026-06-21.
