Riders and mounts

Use the web editor

The easiest way to change these settings is the web editor. It shows every option and checks what you type. This page shows the files, so you know what the editor writes for you.

A special mob can come with a second mob. We call it the extension.

extension:
  type: RIDER
  entityType: SPIDER
  equipment: null

type	What it means
NONE	No extension.
RIDER	The special mob rides on the extension. A zombie riding a spider.
CARRIER	The extension rides on the special mob. A phantom carrying a blaze.

equipment works like the mob's own equipment.

They share one life

The special mob and its extension act as one:

• Damage to the extension hurts the special mob instead.
• The extension's health always follows the special mob's health.
• The extension gets the same maximum health as the special mob.
• When the special mob dies, the extension dies too.
• When the blood night ends, both go away.

In a graph, the "Extension" node gives you the extension. The triggers "On Extension Damage" and "On Extension Death" react to what happens to it.
