I should probably explain myself first.

I loved AtomicStryker's Battle Towers (1.12.2), as well as Kodaichi's original Battle Towers mod (1.7). There was a certain thrill from those simple, tall towers that other structure mods couldn't quite replicate for me. I loved running into these structures and looting each level until I got to the very top, where the Golem guarded its most valuable treasures. And one of my favorite parts has to be when you finally defeated the golem, and it brought down the tower with it.

These mods were great. In my opinion, modpacks like RLCraft of Hexxit wouldn't have given me the same experience without them. However, as I was assembling my own modpack for 1.16.5, I was disappointed to find out that these mods hadn't updated past 1.12.2. So I learned MCreator in order to try and add this mod to my modpack. Eventually, I decided to share this mod on CurseForge so that others may have the same experience I once had in RLCraft or Hexxit. After all, what could possibly go wrong?

Now before I list the features, I should probably tell you what's LACKING. Reminder that I am not a mod developer, and I can't code to save my life. I simply picked up MCreator to add this mod to my modpack.

What's missing:

- I couldn't seem to make the Golem shoot fireballs. Instead, he occasionally summons them, and then kinda hits them at you.

- To compensate for the lack of fireball throwing, he summons lightning!

- He only does his special attacks when he is damaged.

- There is currently only 1 tower. They are made of Stone Bricks instead of Cobblestone.

- The tower only crumbles if the Golem is on the tower. If he dies outside of the tower... well, then it will act like he's still on the tower, and the ground beneath where he died will crumble. This is because I have absolutely no clue how to trigger explosions starting at the top of a structure in MCreator.

- There are currently only towers that go above the ground, and none that go underground

- Anything unrelated to battle towers is not added, e.g. Elemental Staffs

- The Golem and the tower destruction have fewer sounds

Features:

- Tower Golem, who can "summon" fireballs, strike lightning, break blocks around him to get to you, AND NOW HIS EYE GLOWS!

- Mob spawners in the tower are basically the same as AtomicStryker's Battle Towers, with the exception of a few upper levels where evokers are used.

- The battle tower chests use vanilla loot tables! This means that mods that modify chest loot in dungeons, shipwrecks, end cities, etc. will have their loot show up in the tower!

Also, here are some of my recommendations:
If you wanna replicate the Elementary Staffs and magic elements found in Hexxit, use the mod "Elementary Staffs" for 1.16.5. The essences will generate in the tower chests!

This only adds the Battle Towers from the original mods. Unfortunately, if you want RLCraft's dungeons, Roguelike Dungeons and Doomlike Dungeons haven't updated past 1.12. However, I've found that a great alternative is the Dungeon Crawl mod.
