Additions

Technical

JSON

  • Unlocked behavior.random_search_and_dig.
  • target_blocks field added. List of blocks that the mob can dig on. Default if target_blocks isn't added is dirt, grass, podzol, dirt with roots, moss, mud, and muddy mangrove roots.
  • item_table field added. Path to a loot table that specifies what the mob can dig up. item_table takes precedence over items.
  • Content errors added if the behavior has trouble reading or finding item_table and if unable to get an item from items.
  • on_item_found event now fires on item found AND digging finished. Before the event firing caused the digging to stop early.
