Better Allay

Customize how allays differentiate potions and tipped arrows apart. Optionally make allays pick up items even when mob griefing is off, set how long an allay stays at a noteblock, or bind it to the noteblock permanently.

Features

  • Potion and tipped arrow sorting: choose how allays differentiate potion variants (normal / splash / lingering) and tipped arrows apart, with 30 operation modes.
  • Sort every variant of the same potion together, and optionally keep tipped arrows separate.
  • Allays can ignore the mobGriefing gamerule, so they still pick up items when mob griefing is off.
  • Set how long an allay likes a noteblock, or make it stay with the noteblock forever.
  • Change settings in game with commands, no restart needed.

Commands and POTION_TYPES need mod version 1.5.0 or newer. The Fabric versions need Fabric API.

Commands

  • /betterallay - mod version
  • /betterallay.HELP - help
  • /betterallay.CONFIG - shows all current settings
  • /betterallay.RELOAD_CONFIG - reloads the config file
  • /betterallay.<SETTING> <value> - changes one setting, for example /betterallay.LIKES_NOTEBLOCK_TIME -1

Changing a setting needs operator level 3, on a dedicated server too. You can also edit the config file and run /betterallay.RELOAD_CONFIG.

Config

Usually (%appdata% -> .minecraft -> config -> betterallayconfig.properties)
