Herd Mentality

by Darkhax

In Herd Mentality, an attacked mob raises the alarm among nearby mobs of its own kind.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 onlyOpen source1.15.2 – 26.3

What it does

When a mob is attacked, nearby mobs of the same type react to it. An attacked pig, for example, makes other pigs close by panic. The effect is limited to mobs of the matching type, so the wider mob population stays unchanged.

The mod runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it. Required dependencies are Bookshelf, Fabric API and Prickle. Files exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.15.2 – 26.3, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only.

Key features

  1. Alerting nearby mobs

    Attacking a mob causes other mobs of the same type nearby to respond to the attack.

  2. Same-type reactions

    Only mobs of the matching type are affected, such as pigs reacting to a pig being hit.

  3. Panic behavior

    Alerted mobs such as pigs panic, which changes how a herd moves after a fight.

Questions

Does Herd Mentality need Fabric API?

Yes on Fabric. Bookshelf and Prickle are also required on every loader, so all three must be installed next to Herd Mentality.

Does Herd Mentality have to be installed on both sides?

Yes. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

What the author says

This mod will make attacking mobs also alert other nearby mobs of the same type. For example attacking a pig will cause all other nearby pigs to panic. Logo by Delapouite on Game Icons and licensed under CC By 3.0.
