Phantom Scarecrows

Module TypeStand Alone
Created byBluefire610
Compatible MC Versions1.13+

Features

A Phantom Scarecrow can be created by placing a skeleton, wither skeleton, or zombie skull on an armour stand and a chest plate with a curse enchantment (Vanishing or Binding).

Every 4 seconds scarecrows will check 20 blocks above it in a 25 block radius for phantoms. When a phantom is in range, the Phantom Scarecrow will release a projectile that searches for the nearest phantom, explodes and kills it, leaving a firework with a random color. Explosion damage from the projectile also damages nearby phantoms and other entities. If a phantom is detected, a projectile will spawn above the scarecrow and will move towards the closest phantom. If the projectile hits a block on its path to the phantom, the projectile will explode.
