🧰 Core Features

• Sound Attraction:
• Mobs investigate sound events (blocks, entities, items, modded sounds)

• Stealth & Visibility: Player visibility affected by light, weather, stance, movement, invisibility

• Camouflage System:
• Truly invisible under invisibility potion effect, both armor and item are hidden (configurable on server side for anticheat)
• Armor-only camouflage with configurable items and bonuses
• Full “armor + nearby blocks” sets using color/ID matching
• Apply camo materials like mud, sand, dirt, etc., to blend in with the environment

• Scent System:
• Player movement creates a scent trail that mobs can track.  
• Scent lasts about 5 minutes but varies by biome temperature and humidity.
• Dive into the water to cut off the trail.
• Can apply camo material to mask the scent.

• Raid System:
• Instead of a normal horde, mobs will schedule a RAID upon finding a player near the sound or scent position.
• Mobs will call for reinforcement upon scheduling a RAID.

• Muffling & Materials: Wool, solids, liquids, thin blocks alter sound propagation
• Group AI: Leaders, followers, edge scouts, spacing, and dynamic sector scanning
• Swoosh: A configurable list of projectiles, when thrown, will attract mobs to the thrown direction
• Creek: Walking on a configurable list of blocks will make the creek sound
• Awareness UI & Alerts:
• A new awareness UI shows the windshield effect, smell level, sound level, and detection level.
• Indicators above mobs show alerts, detection, arrow near misses, and raids.

• Living Bridge: Zombies and other configurable mobs can form a bridge to invade your base. Enabled by default.

• Trap-Aware Pathfinding: Mobs can account for traps such as trapdoors and placed lava, so they’re less likely to be tricked by them.

• Wind-Spreading Scent: Wind carries scent. With Weather2 installed, the mod uses realistic wind sampling.

• Food Scent: Food adds to the scent that attracts mobs. With Spoiled installed, spoiled food increases the scent.

• Compatibility & Performance:
• Improved smoke and flash handling, plus camouflage rendering, for TacZ Hostiles and TacZ NPC.
• Fixed limb rendering with From The Fog.
• Significantly improved performance.
• Configurable Everything: Human-readable TOML with guided comments
