PassiveVision - Anti enderman aggro
PassiveVision stops endermen from turning hostile when a player simply looks at them.
What it does
Normally an enderman becomes aggressive once a player looks directly at it. PassiveVision changes that interaction so the look no longer triggers aggression, letting players stroll past endermen without provoking them. The mod is a Fabric mod released for Minecraft 1.16 – 1.16.5, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. The author released a single build, 1.0.0 for 1.16.5, on 2021-04-13, and the code is covered by the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain. It is not open source in the usual sense.
Key features
No aggro from looking
Endermen stay passive when a player looks at them, so the stare no longer starts an attack.
Passive endermen while exploring
Players can walk through enderman territory, such as end-city routes and caves, without the mobs turning on them.
Fewer surprise fights
Because the stare is ignored, endermen are less likely to start fights that interrupt building or travel.
