Monkeys and Others

Added

• Alpha Monkey: a larger, scarred monkey with increased health, stronger attacks, unique attack animations and angry eyes.
• Alphas defend nearby monkeys, never steal food and do not flee at low health.
• Alpha attacks have an 8% chance to disarm the player's main-hand weapon, with a 15-second cooldown.
• Alpha attacks have a 15% chance to launch their target upward.
• Rare alpha companions can appear in wild troops and jungle temple groups.
• Jungle temples now host permanent groups of 12–16 monkeys. Lost residents are not replaced.
• Golden Monkey Totem shrines surrounded by deepslate ruins.
• Breaking a totem grants 8 seconds of Blindness and 3 minutes of Jungle's Distrust.
• Totems drop 3 gold nuggets when mined with a suitable tool, never the block itself.
• “Under the Canopy”: a new 2×2 jungle painting available through the vanilla painting item.
• New attack animation for ordinary adult monkeys.

Changed

• Banana plants now grow two blocks tall, with redesigned flat textures.
• Updated banana plant growth, harvesting and natural generation.
• Existing banana bushes automatically adapt to the new plant system.
• Jungle's Distrust increases alpha damage by 20%; ordinary monkeys retain their 50% bonus.
