Imagine if other mobs in Minecraft could use an elytra...and maybe fly better than you can!
The Elytra Creepers mod features AI-controlled creepers capable of advanced flight using elytras. The creepers are trained to fly to a grounded target as quickly as possible while minimizing fall damage. They can even outpace moving targets and still hit them with potentially point-blank explosions!
Requirements
- Minecraft version 1.21.1. I am currently working on updates for 1.21.3+. These updates are a bit more complicated that I had anticipated, so it will take some time. Thank you for your patience.
- NeoForge
- GeckoLib
Showcase
The video below is a showcase and guide on the mod. I will probably make another video regarding the training process of the AI models.
Wiki
The wiki covers all the specific technical information about the mod, including stuff that was not covered in the showcase video.
