Improvised Zombie AI makes hostile mobs progressively smarter and stronger as in-game days pass.

Description

🔥 Improvised Zombie AI

A dynamic difficulty mod for Minecraft Forge 1.20.1


🧠 What does this mod do?

Improvised Zombie AI makes your Minecraft survival experience more intense by progressively increasing the intelligence and power of hostile mobs as in-game days pass.

As time goes on, zombies and other monsters adapt to the environment, learn new behaviors, and become more dangerous.


Progression System

Day Behavior
Day 1–4 Normal behavior
Day 5+ Hostile mobs begin breaking doors
Day 10+ They gain the ability to break blocks
Day 20+ They start placing blocks and receive combat stat boosts
 

All of these behaviors are automatically configured using Enhanced AI, so no manual setup is needed.


⚔️ Stat Scaling

At configurable milestones (default: Day 20), hostile mobs receive:

  • 🧬 Increased max health

  • 💥 Boosted attack damage

  • 🏃‍♂️ Faster movement speed
