Hey!

I am trying to make an adventure map, and at one point I have "people" running around. The way I did this was by summoning armor stands riding invisible silverfish, and this gave the desired effect.

The only problem is, is that after a while the silverfish de-spawn or seem to detach themselves from the armor stands! I have tried name-tagging them, and making them un-killable but they still disappear.

Any Ideas on how to fix this?

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this question! I noob

Silverfish will burrow into stone and other substances. What is the area they run on made of?

What EnderDurant said should work. The PersistenceRequired makes it so that mobs will never despawn. Armor stands do not despawn unless you kill them, meaning that when the silverfish despawns the armor stand would be left sitting there without anything moving it.

You may also want to add the 'Invisible:1' tag to the silverfish, that way people won't be able to see them nor hear them.

Try this command: /summon Silverfish ~ ~1 ~ {Invulnerable:1,PersistenceRequired:1,Silent:1} Not sure exactly what your issue is but this might work
