BrickgardAI Goal Selectors
Goal Selectors are used with the AIGoalSelectors field and determine what mobs want to “do”. Certain custom goals might not work if they're not included in the base AI of the mob you're creating. For example, a zombie won't be able to use the AI goal “EatGrass” because a zombie would never use that goal in the first place. Feel free to experiment to figure out what does and doesn't work!
Note: Certain goals will not work correctly if the world is in peaceful mode.
Example:
SuperMob:
Type: zombie
Health: 200
Display: 'Superb Zombie'
AIGoalSelectors:
- clear
- meleeattack
- randomstrollThis zombie would attack players, and walk around randomly when not targeting an enemy.
