Controllable Mobs API
Welcome to the API which lets you take full control of (nearly) any entity!
This project has been discontinued!
Features
- order an entity to move or look at specified locations, jump, wait, die, follow or attack custom targets
- fully take control of an entity by planning actions that are added to an action queue
- modify the AI of any entity - remove default behaviors or add custom ones!
- configure custom behaviors with various parameters
- modify an entity's attributes (movement speed, attack damage, ...)
- standalone plugin - just add a dependency and updating will be done in no time.
- Bukkit-friendly API - you don't have to deal with Craftbukkit code or native minecraft server code.
- server-only mod - does not require client modifications

Important notes
Got any problems?
- Make sure you are using the correct plugin, matching your Minecraft server's version.
- Search the tickets for an error similar to yours, if it is already existing, do not post a new ticket. Instead, post a comment to the existing ticket.
- If the problem hasn't been reported yet, Open a new ticket. Provide as many information as possible. I won't handle issues posted as comments.
Want new features?
I can always provide more features, as needed! You just have to open a new ticket. Provide as many details as possible. I won't handle feature requests posted as comments.

Right, at this time there is no way to do this. However, a .unassign() method is planned. Which way would you like to retrieve controlled mobs?
@firebunny36
It should not be that difficult to develop both, but how should I upload them? So there would be 4 files per build: plugin/jre6, plugin/jre7, library/jre6, library/jre7..

Posted Nov 9, 2012Just a quick bit of feedback with regards to the poll on the right. If you were going to make it a standalone plugin you might as well write that as a separate plugin using the library so anyone could download either/both.

There doesn't seem to be a way to retrieve controlled mobs, or a way to un-control them. I will continue experimenting though.

Posted Nov 9, 2012@hoohoo4: I am glad to hear about that :)
@PlantAssassin: I will have a look whether I find an easy way to compile the API with Java 7 and 6. Also, I created a poll whether I should wrap the API to a plugin, please vote for the way you prefer!
@BlahBerrys: I am currently working on a javadoc for all the API classes.

Posted Nov 8, 2012Hey, can you compile this with java 6 instead of java 7? I'm building against other jars that were compiled with java 6, so I can't use this.
Would it also be possible to set this up as a plugin that you can require, instead of having to copy the class files into the jar?
