Mobs on different teams should attack each other (similar to shulkers)

If you place shulkers onto a team (using /team), they will attack any hostile mob not on the same team. This would be useful to have on other mobs as well (such as Guardians or Evokers).

    I think this is a great idea. When you change Team color (Anycolor) it should definitely change the color of the shulker. Thank you so much you put job coloring and team color into my thinking cap.

    Perhaps a slight varient to your idea, maybe have it to be possible to use "/scoreboard" on mobs as well.

    ClockKnight6 changing team colors already does change the color of shulkers when they have the glowing effect that is.

    You should be able to set it with /team modify (teamname)

    This would be absolutely incredible for custom maps. Imagine creating a battle of Zombies VS Skeletons for instance. Or being able to control mobs

    if you set a vindictator with the tags {Team:blue,Johnny:1b} then he wont attack any blue team mobs but will attack any other mobs (besides paintings and item frames etc...)

    I was searching if mobs on other teams would attack you and to my surprise it wasn't true

    Here are additional ideas.

    Behaviour Modifications

    Friendly fire is true:

    • Mobs can harm other mobs on the same team but won't duel each other.
    • Players can harm mobs on the same team.

    Friendly fire is false:

    • Mobs can't harm mobs on the same team.
    • Players can't harm mobs on the same team.

    See friendly invisible is true:

    • Players can see mobs on the same team that are invisible.

    New Commands

    Each team will store a list of allied teams. If a pair of teams is not allied then it's implied they're enemies. When a team is removed the ally list is cleared from the current team and each entry is cleared from other teams. Could either be team ally or team modify ally.

    • /team ally [team 1] [add | remove] [team 2]

    Show a list of all allies on the current team.

    • /team ally [team 1] list

    The behaviours of all mobs in a team could be set to suit different gameplay scenarios, depending on how it's implemented these could also apply to individual mobs via nbt data. Default: mobs wander aimlessly. Neutral: mobs act like Iron Golems and focus on hostile threats. Attack point: mobs move towards an area. Defend point: mobs return to an area after breaking a chase with threats. Cycle points: mobs go from A to B in an endless loop which supports capture the flag. Defend entity: mobs escort an entity.

    • /team modify [team] mobBehaviours [default | neutral]
    • /team modify [team] mobBehaviours [attack point | defend point] [x y z]
    • /team modify [team] mobBehaviours [cycle points] [x1 y1 z1] [x2 y2 z2]
    • /team modify [team] mobBehaviours [defend entity] [entity]
