Enchanted Mobs

This update expands Enchanted Mobs beyond hostile creatures, introducing enchanted passive mobs alongside new defensive enchantments and additional customization options.

New Mobs

Passive mobs can now spawn enchanted too!

• Sheep
• Cow
• Pig
• Chicken

These mobs make use of defensive enchantments to keep encounters interesting without drastically changing their role.

Besides... a Sharpness V chicken pecking someone to death would be a little too terrifying.

New Enchantments

Unbreaking

Added as a new defensive enchantment, increasing combat variety while laying the groundwork for future mechanics.

Thorns

Attacking certain mobs now comes with a little extra risk, making some encounters more dynamic.

Quality of Life

Optional Enchanted Book Drops

Added a setting to choose whether enchanted mobs always drop enchanted books or never drop them. This helps reduce inventory clutter while giving players full control over how rewarding enchanted mobs should be.

Enchantment Glint Options

Added new glint customization options:

• Default
• Middle Ground
• Subtle

Also added an optional purple glint inspired by Minecraft Java Edition aiming at parity.

Technical Changes

Passive Mob Despawn

The custom despawn script has been updated so enchanted passive mobs are no longer automatically removed.

This ensures player farms and animal pens remain intact while also supporting future non-hostile enchanted mobs.

Fixes

Rider/Jockey Spawning

Fixed an issue where rider/jockey combinations could occasionally be replaced incorrectly during spawning.
