The Magic Mirror
by TBoshoven
The Magic Mirror adds a mirror item that reflects nearby players, turning the one standing in front of it into an armor stand or a skeleton skull.
What it does
A mirror in the game reflects the player closest to it, so the item is used on whoever stands in front of it. The mod covers several magical uses of the mirror, and reflections can be turned into armor stands or skeleton skulls. Armor stands are available from 1.12 onward, and a player can swap armor with a fancy magic armor stand, while skeleton skulls from 1.12 onward can be turned into a reflection skeleton.
The mod keeps its effect on performance small. Client and server installs are needed, so the server and every player must both run it. Builds are published for Forge and NeoForge across 21 release versions, 1.12.2 – 26.2, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is open source, with public source, issue tracker and wiki links.
