         'on_blast' is called when an explosion happens near mob when using TNT functions, parameters are (object, damage) and returns (do_damage, do_knockback, drops)
         'explosion_radius' radius of explosion attack (defaults to 1)
+        'explosion_fire' if true, explosion will create lots of fire (default: true)

         'arrow' if the attack_type is "shoot" or "dogshoot" then the entity name of a pre-defined arrow is required, see below for arrow definition.
         'shoot_interval' the minimum shoot interval
