Pungo's Alter Survival

The objective of this addon is to add small, but significant changes to vanilla's survival. Things are somewhat harder, but somewhat useful as well. It mostly changes some entities behavior and the only thing that is added is some recipes. Try this if you're bored with normal survival, or if you want a different approach on facing mobs.

  • Fixed zombie follow range. Now it will pursuit you from afar like other mobs.
  • Bat can now be tamed.
  • Nerfed evoker attack frequency, as well as the fangs speed.
  • Frogs can now be tamed with slime blocks, instead on slime balls. This was done do increase the difficulty of getting a frog.

Hey, this addon is great, have you seen the Better than wolves Mod yet? It would be great to have the mechanic that the Animals run away from the player (like the foxes 🦊) and that you will have to sneak/crouch, to be able to reach out and hit them, but the difficult thing will be that when you hit one it will attack you and all its kind will attack you too, like the wolf mechanic, only with the detail that at the beginning the Mobs avoid you, making you think that they are only afraid and that they will not be able to do anything to you, it would be great but I think it's difficult to make both mechanics work at the same time.

It's not that difficult actually. I can work on that. I'll put on my "to do" list. Maybe on a future update we'll have this functionality. Thanks for your suggestion!

"Every hostile mob now knows your location 24/7"

I'm really sorry, but if possible, Could you also release a light add-on that deleted this feature, please?

So basically you want a version that just mods the animals and add recipes. That's it? Well, you could just delete all monsters files on the addon folder. If you don't know how to do it, no problem. Just email me at [email protected] and I'll send you a custom version.

Thank you so much for your reply. So if you okay, Could you tell me what is the files of the "hostile monsters"? I'll delete the files myself. Have a nice day. Thank you again.

Sure thing. Convert the file from .mcpack to .zip, unzip it, open it and then open the folder "entities". Every file there will have the name of the mob it represents. Look for files with monster names on it, such as zombie.json or skeleton.json and delete those. Them zip the addon again and convert it to .mcpack (simply changing the extension name works). There you go. If you don't succeed, don't hesitate to email me.

Yes, I'll nerf it again on the next update. I already did it by reducing the success rate on taming, but I'll also add an interval for when the frog can eat a mob.

I've been testing the addon in my survival game, and it's really good. It provides good value for certain mobs. One suggestion: could you add new features to the sniffer and also nerf the frog a bit, as it's very op. Great addon, has potential. πŸ‘
Edit: One more suggestion that you could also modify the distance at which the mobs can see you is that I had several problems with the evokers attacking me from very far away but I couldn't see where they were attacking me.

Glad you enjoyed it! The frog is about to be nerfed on the next update and the evoker as well. About the distance the mobs can see you, it's one of the addon premises, so I can't remove it for now. The evoker will still attack from really far, but the fangs will now be slower (gives you more reaction time).
