MOBS REDO for MINETEST

Built from PilzAdam's original Simple Mobs with additional mobs by KrupnoPavel, Zeg9, ExeterDad and AspireMint.

This mod contains the API only for adding your own mobs into the world, so please use the additional modpacks to add animals, monsters, and npcs.

• Net. Used to right-click tamed mobs to pick them up and place inside inventory as a spawn egg.
• Magic lasso. Similar to nets but with a better chance of picking up larger mobs.
• Shears. Used to right-click sheep and return 1-3 wool.
• Protection Rune. Protects tamed mobs from being harmed by other players.
