Coco's Tarantulas

Resource Pack is required

With this datapack, tarantulas are added to the game. They act very similarly to regular spiders, but with a few changes.

--Tarantulas are bigger. They have a larger hitbox and cannot climb walls.

--Tarantulas are faster. They can easily catch up to the average player and have no problem keeping up with even the fastest mobs.

--Tarantulas deal more damage. They deal high-knockback, high-damage hits that will inflict you with 7 seconds of poison.

--Tarantulas are neutral. Tarantulas will not actively hunt (with the exception of hostile mobs), even at night, as long as they aren't angered. A tarantula is angered when they take damage from a mob or player. If angry, a tarantula will kill pretty much anything in the area and it will stay angry for about 3 minutes. You can tell if a tarantula is angered if they have red particles around them.

--Tarantulas have a unique 'warn' system. If you get too close to a tarantula, it will lift its front legs up and 'warn' you not to come any closer. If you do get close, they will inflict a non-lethal bite.

--Tarantulas are rarer. A tarantula will spawn every 10 regular spider spawns.


That's it! Have fun with these big ol' buggers roaming around your world.
