Some aspects of the datapack were generated with https://advancements.thedestruc7i0n.ca/

Purpose
Minecraft is a fun sandbox game, but it can get scary and annoying for some players with hostile mobs.
Turing the game difficulty to peaceful just won't fix it, you can't get hostile drops like Blaze rods, and it is too easy for some players.
That's why I've made this Datapack, it allows Hostile Mobs to exist. They will not harm you until you harm them.
This Datapack allows for challenges in resource gathering with hostile mobs, but have not made it too easy or impossible.

How to use
Datapacks are simple to install, simply download the latest release in files.
Put it in your world folder (Under saves/<world name>/datapacks) and use the /reload command ingame!
A message should pop up and you're ready to go!
