HostilePassives
by Zurned
HostilePassives turns peaceful mobs such as cows, pigs and villagers into hostile creatures that attack players on sight.
What it does
Animals that are normally harmless, including cows, pigs and sheep, become aggressive, and so do water animals like cod and salmon, along with villagers and wandering traders. Players can no longer rely on these mobs for safe farming or free food. Only vanilla mobs are affected; modded mobs are left alone unless their mod is compatible.
The mod is published for NeoForge on 1.21.1 only, and it must be installed on both the client and the server. Released under the MIT License, it is not open source.
Key features
Hostile farm animals
Cows, pigs, sheep and similar animals seek out and attack players instead of wandering away.
Aggressive water animals
Cod, salmon and other water animals also turn hostile, changing fishing and underwater travel.
Aggressive villagers
Villagers and wandering traders become aggressive toward players, so village trading gets riskier.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
