🧠 [Attract To Sound] – Advanced AI & Stealth Overhaul

Tired of mobs that see with the back of their heads? Crave a true stealth experience where every sound and shadow matters? This mod overhauls mob AI, turning mindless monsters into intelligent hunters with realistic senses.

[Attract To Sound] makes hostile mobs react to the world with unparalleled realism. Mobs now rely on dynamic sound detection, a configurable line-of-sight system (FOV), and a deep stealth system that factors in light, movement, weather, and camouflage.

Survive in a world where mobs don't just see you—they hunt you.

✨ Core Features: A Complete Detection Overhaul

👁️ True Line of Sight & Field of View (FOV)

• Realistic Vision: Mobs no longer have 360° x-ray vision. Each mob has a unique, configurable Field of View, turning stealth from a gimmick into a core mechanic.
• Backstabs & Sneak Attacks: Attacking a mob from outside its FOV grants a 20% damage bonus, rewarding tactical positioning.
• Fully Configurable: Define custom FOV angles for any mob via config. Exclude specific bosses to preserve their unique mechanics.

🔊 Dynamic Sound Detection

• Mobs Hunt Sounds: Hostile mobs investigate a huge range of sounds—from footsteps and breaking blocks to gunshots and your own voice (with supported voice-chat mods).
• Sound Has Weight & Range: An explosion travels further and is more threatening than a footstep. Configure the detection range and "threat level" of every sound.
• Sound Muffling: Use wool, carpets, and other blocks to build soundproof bases. Sound realistically dampens when passing through solid walls.

🤫 Advanced Stealth & Camouflage

• Light Matters: Stick to the shadows. Your visibility is drastically reduced in low light.
• Movement & Stance: Sneaking and crawling significantly reduce your detection radius compared to running.
• Environmental Factors: Rain and thunderstorms mask your sounds and reduce visibility, providing perfect cover for a stealthy approach.
• Dynamic Camouflage: Wear armor that matches the color of your environment to blend in and reduce your detection range.

🤖 Intelligent Group AI & Pathfinding

• Hunting Parties: Alerted mobs form temporary groups, designate leaders, and investigate strategically instead of swarming mindlessly.
• Smart Scouting: "Scout" mobs on the edge of a group will investigate peripheral sounds first, preventing the entire pack from descending on trivial noises.

🔌 Unparalleled Mod Integration

[Attract To Sound] is built to be the central detection hub for your modpack. It includes out-of-the-box support for:

• Gun Mods: Gunshots from TacZ Guns, Scorched Guns, MrCrayfish's Gun Mod, and more are treated as high-threat sound events.
• Simple Voice Chat: Your microphone is an input. Whispering is stealthy, but shouting will draw every mob in the area.
• Parcool: Dashing, rolling, and sliding create sound, adding risk to your acrobatic maneuvers.
• Any Modded Mob or Sound: The config files allow you to add detection rules for any entity, sound, or block from any other mod.
