Description

Custom Mob Patrols & AI Pathmaker

Ever wanted to control exactly where your mobs go, how long they stay at a specific spot, or even give them random choices? This mod introduces a set of powerful wands that allow you to program mob behavior, create complex or randomized patrol paths, and customize their settings!

All tools can be found in the creative tab: Tools and Utilities. ⚠️ IMPORTANT: You must hold one of the mod's tools in your hand to interact with the paths and see the visual displays!

📖 How to Use (Step-by-Step Guide)

1. Registering a Mob & Creating Nodes

  • Grab the Mob AI Wand from the creative inventory.
  • Right-click on a mob to select it. (Once selected, this mob will be bound to the paths you create).
  • Right-click on the ground with the same wand to place down path nodes (points).

2. Linking Nodes (Creating a Path)

  • Switch to the Connection Wand.
  • Right-click on the first node, then sequentially click on the next nodes to create a visible path.
  • Right-click the last node again to finish and close the path creation mode.

3. Branching & Randomized Crossroads

  • Switch to the Random Wand to create split paths where the mob can choose where to go next.
  • Right-click on an existing node, then click on other locations to create branching nodes. These will be connected by colored lines showing the percentage chance of the mob choosing that direction.
  • Right-click the main junction node again with the Random Wand to open a GUI menu. Here, you can adjust the percentages.
    • Note: The total percentage must always equal exactly 100%!
    • Limit: A single node can have a maximum of 12 branching paths.

4. Setting Idle Times (Intervals)

  • Take the Interval Display tool in your hand.
  • Right-click on any node to cycle through how long the mob will wait at that spot before moving on.
  • Available intervals: 0s (Default) ➡️ 0.5s ➡️ 1s ➡️ 2s ➡️ 3s ➡️ 4s ➡️ 5s.

5. Customizing Mob Settings

  • You can modify specific mob behaviors using the mod's interface. Currently available options:
    • Door Interaction Toggle: Allow or disallow the mob from opening and closing doors.
    • Mob Speed Modifier: Adjust how fast or slow the mob walks along the path.

6. Mob Management & Protection

  • Mob Recall Wand: If your selected mob gets lost or wanders away, use this wand to teleport it right back to you. If the bound mob dies while selected, using this wand will summon a brand-new instance of that mob.
  • Despawn Protection: Any mob currently selected and bound to an AI path is automatically protected and will not naturally despawn.

7. Activating the Patrol

  • Once your path is complete, approach your selected mob and Shift + Right-click it.
  • The mob will immediately start following your custom patrol route!
