🚀 NerfJockey: The Definitive Baby Zombie Fix 🚀
📜 Overview
Tired of those impossibly fast, tiny terrors ruining your early game? NerfJockey is the essential Quality of Life (QoL) plugin for any SMP or Survival server, giving control back to the players by fixing the most frustrating mob in Minecraft: the Baby Zombie.
We didn't just slow them down—we made them fair!
✨ Features ✨
1. Adjustable Speed Nerf
Baby Zombies are known for their insane speed. NerfJockey allows server owners to precisely reduce their movement speed using a multiplier. No more outrunning you to the ends of the Earth!
2. Enlarged Hitbox Fix (The Game Changer)
The number one complaint is how hard they are to hit. Our innovative fix attaches an invisible, larger proxy entity to the zombie, making your swings connect reliably, even though the mob is still visually small.
- Reliable Hits: No more missing swings—you hit what you see!
- Seamless Integration: The proxy silently follows the zombie using a dedicated asynchronous task for perfect tracking.
3. Adjustable Follow Range Nerf
Control how far these pests can spot you. Reduce their aggression radius to give players more time to react and escape before a chase even starts.

Projects on Modrinth are automatically available through a Maven repository for use with JVM build tools such as Gradle. To learn more about the Modrinth Maven API, click here.
Note: When available, you should use the creator's maven repo instead as it will have transitive dependency information that the Modrinth Maven API does not. You may also end up with duplicate dependencies if you use a mix of Modrinth and non-Modrinth Maven repositories for your dependencies, because the group identifier will be different when served through the Modrinth Maven API.
