Creaking Roots (Solution to digging under The Creaking)

The Creaking is currently easily cheated -- the players just need to mine underneath it for 2 blocks and the entire challenge is nullified. I think, to avoid this, the Creaking should (if it's stationary -- A.K.A. the player is looking at it, ready to dig under it -- to prevent performance issues) expand roots under itself, or perhaps just giving the block a property of being rooted. 

If the block underneath changes (like Snow Golems change the blocks beneath them to snow), it could also be a great visual effect to make it fit in more with the environment instead of looking like it's just there, atop of it.

    This is a wonderful idea! I have been worried about that for awhile, I'm the type of player who will use whatever loop holes he can get if it's more convenient/safer, while also being disappointed that its so easy. I want the Creaking to be at least a small challenge (preferably a big challenge but that seems unlikely). I suggest that, in edition to your idea, the Creaking should despawn if it can't pathfind to the player. That way the player can trap it, look away, and when he looks back it will be gone and in a different place.

    The creaking should also be able to climb up blocks and be immune to fall damage.

    This would also allow creakings to get around barracades and dug-out channels.
