The Wild Hunt

by Petro_Costryula

The Wild Hunt makes survival harder: skeleton hordes spawn at night and track players, and the number of sins a player has shapes how many come.

What it does

Each night, a horde can appear with a 30 percent chance and target the player who has the most sins. The number of spawned entities varies with how many sins the targeted player carries, so more sins bring a larger and more dangerous horde. Early builds include several creatures that hunt players, among them a skeleton miner that breaks through blocks until it reaches its target, a skeleton wolf that slips through single-block holes, and a flying skeleton that makes escape harder.

Sins are tied to actions such as sleeping, trading and dying. Vanilla mechanics are also tweaked: iron ore smelted in a furnace yields iron nuggets instead of ingots, and iron nuggets have to be crafted into a cluster before they turn into an ingot, so players cannot reach iron as early as usual with a copper pickaxe. The mod is intended for play with friends. The Geckolib library is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and cover 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with 1.0.5 for 1.20.1 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Night skeleton hordes

    A horde can spawn at night with a 30 percent chance and move toward the player with the most sins.

  2. Sin-based horde size

    The number of spawned entities depends on the targeted player's sins, so accumulating sins raises the threat.

  3. Hunting creatures

    Skeleton miners break through blocks, skeleton wolves pass through one-block gaps and flying skeletons follow the player.

  4. Iron smelting changes

    Smelting iron ore gives iron nuggets, which must be crafted into a cluster before becoming an ingot.
