Illagers' Hostility
by manpuc
Illagers' Hostility changes how raiders behave toward other monsters, so Pillagers, Vindicators and Illusioners attack hostile mobs instead of ignoring them.
What it does
Raider-class mobs, including Pillagers, Vindicators and Illusioners, actively hunt monsters such as Zombies, Skeletons, Spiders, Endermen and Creepers. The mod turns raiders from players' enemies into fighters against the rest of the hostile population, and it reworks their AI so they keep wandering longer and engage in combat as a team.
Witches gain support behaviour and follow nearby Raiders as combat medics for the Illager army. They throw Regeneration, Strength and Swiftness potions to heal and strengthen allied Raiders, Healing potions that damage Undead mobs, and Harming potions against Spiders and other Arthropods. Pillagers also fire more bouncing arrows, and multiple Pillagers can shoot the same target without the default invulnerability frames blocking their hits.
Illagers' Hostility is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is released under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.

What the author says
This mod completely overhauls the AI of Illagers (Pillagers, Vindicators, etc.) and Witches, making them act as a true army! They will no longer just wander around; they will actively engage in combat against other monsters and work together as a team. (Scroll down for Japanese / 日本語の説明は下にあります)
