About this Mod

This mod adds Machines from the games Horizon: Zero Dawn, Forbidden West, and some of my own machine concepts into Minecraft.
This mod is for those who want machines with diverse attacks that require more strategy than the average mob.

Not Tested with Multiplayer

Despite its Initial release, the mod still has bugs to fix and a lot more updates to come.

The Machines currently in the mod are

Spoiler

Watcher: Small agile avian-like machines (Found: Everywhere)

Strider: Horse-like robots that roam in groups (Found: Everywhere)

Burrower: Mink-like machines capable of digging (Found: Deserts, Savannas, Jungles)

Grazers: Skitish grazing Deer-like machines (Found: Forests, Meadows, Hills)

Scrounger: Dog-like machines that scrap unused metal (Found: Deserts, Plains, Jungles)

Legdasher: Emu-like machines with powerful kicks (Found: Plains, Savannas)

Splasher: Agile Dolphin-like machines that juggle players around (Found: Salt and Fresh Water)

Current Machine loot is
