Mob Capsule
Mob Capsule #
The Mob Capsule is a specialized capture utility that allows you to easily capture mobs, farm livestock, villagers, or hostile monsters and transport them anywhere without relying on leads, boats, or tedious minecart tracks.
1. Item Properties #
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base Item | Custom Heart of the Sea |
| Mechanic | Throwable projectile (similar to snowballs, eggs, and ender pearls) |
| Lifespan | Single-Use (The capsule is consumed upon releasing the contained entity) |
| Miss Protection | Never wasted (If you miss the target entity, the empty capsule drops safely on the ground) |
2. How to Use (Capture & Release) #
The Mob Capsule operates in a 2-step lifecycle:
Step 1: Capturing an Entity #
- Equip an empty Mob Capsule in your main hand.
- Aim at the target mob and throw it using Right-click.
- Upon impacting the mob, the entity is captured instantly.
- The capsule absorbs the entity's attributes and appearance, returning to your inventory (or the ground) as a Filled Mob Capsule.
Step 2: Releasing the Entity #
- Hold the filled capsule in your hand.
- Aim at the floor or pen where you want to release the entity and Right-click.
- The captured mob emerges at the impact point with its original health, custom name tag, and attributes intact.
- The capsule is consumed upon release.
3. Miss Protection Guarantee #
If you throw an empty capsule and miss your target or hit a wall/floor, do not worry! The capsule will not break or vanish; it drops on the ground as an empty item that you can simply walk over and pick back up.
