Immortalizer

Immortalizer

Adds “The Immortalizer” (and commands) for immortalizing mobs.

Immortalizer is directly inspired by a post I saw on Reddit by
u/LeadershipFlimsy9676
which requested a way to “immortalize mobs that normally can’t be,”
I figured I could do something along those lines. So…

Features

• The Immortalizer: An item to target mobs you want to immortalize
• Use on a mob to immortalize it, or attack it to make it mortal again.
• /immortalize <targets>: A command to target mobs you want to immortalize
• Toggles immortality on the selected entity/entities

“The Immortalizer” Recipe

In an effort to give some viability to this item in a Survival playthrough,
I have made the recipe rather ridiculous. Feel free to change it with a datapack
or something like KubeJS/another approach.

}

/immortalize <targets> Command

It’s pretty straight-forward; <targets> works just like
the entity selector for the /give
command in Vanilla Minecraft. Wiki: /give,
and targeting any LivingEntity will toggle it’s tracked Immortality value.
