🌧️ CloudRainStalker V5-AnimationUPD

They look like players. Until they don't.

Three stalkers live in your world as fake players: real name tag, real "joined the game" message, even chat. Walk too close and they twitch, flicker, scream, and morph into monsters.

⚠️ Upgrading? Remove or disable all older Cloudrain Stalker versions first. They share the same entity IDs and will conflict.

🎭 The Disguise → Transformation

Human form: every non-hostile stalker looks like a normal player (standard model), wanders, and chats things like <Mira_x> did you hear that?

They notice you when:

You must stay in range for about a second, walls block detection, and punching one reveals him instantly. Sneak past at 6 blocks and he never knows you were there.

The transformation (new!): he freezes, turns to face you, convulses, flickers in and out, smoke and soul wisps leak off him, a scream plays, and he bursts into his monster form with a camera shake: "…that was never a player." Only then does he go hostile.

👁️ The Stalkers

🔴 Cloudrain: reacts to your eyes

Every encounter plays out differently: he teleports behind you, appears face to face, blinks (vanishes, footsteps creep closer, then he's there), or retreats and goes back to looking human.

He grows the more you look at him and the more chases you survive. Monster form: tall, thin, arms to his knees, horns and a torn cloak. Red glowing eyes, blood mist, and a glitchy flicker.

🟠 Sundown: a living statue

He only moves when you are not looking. Look at him: he freezes solid. Look away: he sprints and hits for 4-7 hearts, speeding up every 45 seconds. Stare too long and your eyes burn: forced blinks black out your screen while he closes in. Spawns at sunset, burns away at dawn. Monster form: a hulking, cracked, ape-like statue with burning sockets and drifting embers.

🔵 Hollow: blind, hears everything

He doesn't care where you look, only how much noise you make. A live Noise meter shows it: sprinting and jumping are loud, sneaking or standing still is silent, mining, building and fighting cause big spikes. Stay quiet for 8 seconds and he loses you. He can fire a sonic boom (6 hearts) after a 2-second wind-up. Break line of sight to dodge it. Lurks in caves. Monster form: starved and very tall, ribs sticking out, soulfire at his feet.

😱 The Horror Director + FEAR Meter

A hidden director links all three into one escalating story. Real, hostile stalkers near you raise your FEAR, shown above your hotbar:

FEAR [███████░░░] afraid ▲

🌙 Fear builds at night. Daylight calms you fast. Hiding works too: it drains 1.5/s while you move, 3/s while you sneak or stand still. Fake players never raise fear, so they can't give themselves away. Stalkers sent by the Director find you from afar.

✨ Atmosphere

• Custom 3D models, redesigned skins, and particle effects on every stalker
• "joined the game" / "left the game" messages, Java-style advancements, boss bars
• Creepy fog, heartbeat, phantom footsteps, camera shake, title cards, thunderstorms
• Custom death messages and loot (ender pearls, echo shards, blaze rods and more)

🌙 Spawning

• Cloudrain: rare, at night in the overworld
• Sundown: mostly at sunset
• Hollow: underground, in caves
• Only one stalker type is active near you at a time, and they always start out disguised

📥 Installation

1. Download the .mcaddon and open it
2. Create or edit a world
3. Enable both the Behavior Pack and the Resource Pack
4. Play at night, explore a cave, or use a spawn egg

⌨️ Commands

• /summon stalker:stalker / stalker:sundown / stalker:hollow
• /scriptevent stalker:phase 1-4: set nearby Cloudrain phase (testing)
• /scriptevent stalker:sundown / stalker:hollow: spawn a hunter near you
• /scriptevent stalker:director on | off | status | reset | hud on | hud off | help
• /scriptevent stalker:fx on | off: entity particle effects

⚙️ Customize

Settings are at the top of main.js, sundown.js, hollow.js and form.js: spawn rates, damage, detection ranges, fear drain, fake player names, lightning and more. Skins: stalker_human.png, sundown_human.png, hollow_human.png (disguise) and stalker.png, sundown.png, hollow.png (monster) in the resource pack's textures/entity/ folder. Any 64x64 classic-arm skin works.

⚠️ Good to Know

• Phase IV lightning can start fires. Set CLOUDRAIN_LIGHTNING = false in main.js to turn it off
• Typed chat does not wake stalkers (that needs Beta APIs). Walking, sprinting, noise and punching do
• Players on the "minimal particles" setting will see fewer effects
• Difficulty and armor change the damage you take
• Requires Minecraft Bedrock 1.21.50 or newer. Stable scripting API, no experiments needed
