Item & Block Attraction

*** # **<span style="color:#E67E23;">Lure of Anything</span>** ### **Customize Mob AI to make any mob attracted to any item, block, or player. The ultimate tool for mob farming, automated herding, and decoy-based defense. Server-side, lightweight, and fully configurable.** *** ## Total Control Over Mob AI. You Decide What They're Drawn To. Ever wished you could <span style="color:#B96AD9;">guide</span> mobs exactly where you want them? What if you could turn any item into a powerful beacon, or any block into an irresistible bait? From the creator of *Fear of Anything*, **Lure of Anything** is its powerful counterpart, giving you complete control over mob attraction. This server-side mod allows you to create attraction rules for **any mob** in the game, including those from other mods. Make Zombies swarm a block of gold, guide animals to a pen using a specific flower, or lure a powerful modded boss into a trap with a custom-named item. With support for NBT data and block states, the possibilities for hyper-efficient farms, creative automation, and strategic gameplay are truly limitless. *** ## Key Features * 🧠 **Customizable Mob AI:** The core of the mod. Gain precise control over mob pathfinding by defining what attracts them. A game-changer for technical players and modpack creators. * 🎯 **Target Any Mob (with <span style="color:#3498DB;">NBT Support</span>):** Add any mob from vanilla or mods to an attraction group. Lure all skeletons, or only skeletons holding a specific enchanted bow. * 🗡️ **Lure of Items (with <span style="color:#3498DB;">NBT Support</span>):** Make mobs hunt for a player holding an item, or pathfind towards an item on the ground. This includes modded items and NBT data, allowing you to create things like a "Zombie-Calling Bell." * 🧱 **Lure of Blocks (with <span style="color:#3498DB;">Block State Support</span>):** Designate any block as a lure. The system can check for specific block states, allowing you to create a lure that only activates when a lever is `powered:true`. * ⚙️ **Simple TOML Configuration:** All rules are created in an easy-to-edit `.toml` config file. This makes configuration incredibly flexible and straightforward for server owners and pack makers. * 🚀 **<span style="color:#2ECC71;">Server-Side</span> & Lightweight:** The mod runs entirely on the server, so players don't need to install it. The AI checks are highly optimized for minimal performance impact, ensuring a smooth experience on any server. *** ## What Will You Create? This is a sandbox for your creativity. Here are just a few ideas: * **Hyper-Efficient Mob Farms:** Forget waiting for mobs to wander into your grinder. Use a single block as bait to pull every mob in a huge radius directly into your collection system for maximum efficiency. * **Precise Mob Herding:** Guide Creepers away from your base with a decoy block, or lead a group of sheep into a pen for shearing using a specific "shepherd's block." * **Decoy-Based Defense:** Instead of walls, build traps! Place a "lure block" in the center of a pit or lava moat and watch as mobs willingly march to their doom. * **Adventure Map & Quest Design:** Create a quest where the player must find a "Sacred Conch" to lure a powerful sea monster out of its temple to retrieve a key. * **Automated Taming & Breeding:** Place an animal's favorite food as a block (e.g., a "Hay Bale Lure" for cows) to automatically attract them into a breeding pen from the wild. *** ### FAQ **Q: How do I configure the mobs and their lures?** A: All configuration is done using the **config file**.

The AI scanning is efficient and lightweight, making it safe for servers of all sizes.
