What it does

The mod changes mob behavior so that mobs want to fight more often. Its effect can be switched off with the mobFightUtils/enabled gamerule, which the author notes is required for some setups. Some mobs run on a more complicated brain system AI, and the mod does not work on those, with the goat named as a notable example. Fabric API is required, and the mod is open source under the MIT License, published for Fabric and Quilt across 1.19.1, 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3 and 1.20.4. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing it.

Key features

  1. Aggressive mob behavior

    Mobs are pushed toward fighting more, which changes how often they engage the player.

  2. Toggle gamerule

    The mobFightUtils/enabled gamerule switches the behavior on or off in a world.

  3. Limited mob support

    Mobs with a more complex brain system AI are not affected, and the goat is a notable example.

What the author says

This can be disabled by a gamerule (mobFightUtils/enabled) when necessary. Sadly, because some mobs use the more complicated brain system for ai, this mod won't work on them. The notable ones are the goat,
