Endermen won't attack Endermite [20w12a]
So, for a map I'm making, I've set doMobSpawning
to false
, and I'm trying to create an Enderman farm using Endermites. I'm aware that Endermen will only attack a natural, pearl-spawned Endermite usually, but found via the Wiki that they have an NBT tag (namely, PlayerSpawned
) that, when they have a value of 1
, will allow Endermen to attack it.
Here's my issue; it's not working. I've tried 1
and 1b
(since that is the only thing that will work on most occasions) and even tried my luck with 0
and 0b
, but no dice. I can't spawn an Endermite naturally because of doMobSpawning
being false
.
Is this PlayerSpawned
NBT thing bugged, and should I submit a report seeing this is a snapshot version? Or is there something else I'm missing here?
After doing some testing, I've found it's a line-of-sight issue with the Endermen. Apparently my Endermite was just one block above their sight, so they didn't actually see the Endermite at all.
