A user-friendly tool for moving entities.
📦 Ender Lead
Ender Lead is a lightweight modification for Minecraft that introduces a single, versatile item: the Ender Lead. This mod draws inspiration from the version available in Apotheosis but is presented here as a simple, standalone option.
✨ Features
Introduce a new item: the Ender Lead, which enables players to capture and store any entity, expanding beyond just animals, for later release.
Capture Mechanics:
- By left-clicking on an entity with the Ender Lead, players can capture it within the item.
- Compatible with nearly all entities, including mobs, villagers, and even those added by other mods.
- Upon capturing an entity, it is removed from the environment and stored in the item’s NBT data.
Release Mechanics:
- By right-clicking on a block while holding a stored entity, players can spawn it at the chosen location.
- Each release diminishes the durability of the item by one point (maximum durability: 15 uses).
Additional Features:
- The tooltip of the item dynamically shows the name of the captured entity.
- The item emits a glow when it has an entity stored within it (foiling effect).
- Capturing or releasing an entity triggers the Enderman teleport sound effect.
🛠️ Crafting Recipe
To craft the Ender Lead, you will need the following materials:
- 1 × Lead
- 1 × Ender Pearl
- 1 × Gold Ingot
🎮 Gameplay Impact
The Ender Lead revolutionizes how players can interact with entities, offering significant enhancements to entity transportation and management:
- Effortlessly relocate villagers, pets, bosses, or rare mobs across dimensions or over long distances.
- Create intricate farms or bases with accurate entity placements.
- Capture mobs during exploration and bring them back to your base with ease.
- Eliminates the need for minecarts, boats, or conventional leads for moving mobs.
- This tool is particularly valuable in technical and survival modpacks where precise control over entity locations is essential.
🔍 Design Philosophy
The principles behind this mod focus on:
- Simplicity: It introduces only one new item.
- Stand-alone functionality: It does not rely on other mods like Apotheosis.
- Performance-friendly: Ideal for players and modpacks who prioritize efficiency.
