Item & Block Attraction

Complete Control Over Mob AI. You Choose What They Find Irresistible

Ever imagined being able to guide creatures exactly where you want them? Picture turning any item into a powerful magnet or any block into an irresistible bait! The Item & Block Attraction mod gives you full control over creature behavior in the Minecraft world.

This server-side modification lets you create attraction rules for any creature in the game, including beings from other mods. Make zombies gather around a gold block, direct animals into pens using specific flowers, or lure bosses from other mods into traps using named items. With support for NBT data and block states, the possibilities for creating efficient farms, automation, and strategic gameplay are limitless.

Key Features

  • 🧠 Customizable Mob Logic: Gain precise control over creature movement by defining objects that attract them. A real treasure for technical players and modpack creators
  • 🎯 Target Any Mob: Add any creatures from vanilla or mods to attraction groups. Attract all skeletons or only those holding a specific enchanted bow
  • 🗡️ Item Lures: Make mobs hunt players holding specific items or move toward items on the ground. The system supports items from other mods and NBT data, allowing creation of unique mechanisms
  • 🧱 Block Lures: Designate any block as bait. The system can verify specific block states, enabling creation of mechanisms that activate only under required conditions
  • ⚙️ Simple TOML Configuration: All rules are created in an easily editable .toml configuration file, making setup extremely flexible and understandable for server owners
  • 🚀 Server-Side Version: The mod operates entirely on the server side, so players don't need to install it. AI checks are optimized for minimal performance impact

What Can You Create?

Use this as your creativity sandbox:

  • Ultra-efficient mob farms: Magnetic traps that pull all creatures from a wide radius directly into your collection system
  • Precise herd management: Lead creepers away from your base using bait blocks or guide sheep into pens using special "shepherd blocks"
  • Defense systems: Place "bait blocks" in trap pit centers and watch creatures willingly walk to their doom
  • Adventure maps: Create quests where players must find "Sacred Shells" to lure mighty sea monsters from their temples
