Better Mob Combat
Better Mob Combat is an add-on to Better Combat that lets humanoid mobs use its combat system.
What it does
Once installed next to Better Combat, humanoid mobs can attack with the weapon ranges and swing behavior that Better Combat gives to players. Mob Player Animator is required so those attacks play as animations through Player Animator. Cloth Config API supplies the settings screen.
A config file sets the list of mobs that may use the combat system. Mobs animated with GeckoLib are blacklisted automatically, because Player Animator cannot animate them.
