About this Mod

This mod is no longer necessary, as its features have been implemented in the base mod.

This mod provides further tweaks to leader zombies as an addon to Zombie Improvements.

Changes:

Instead of having a red aura, leader zombies have a unique texture and are slightly larger
Leader zombies have different sounds
Leader zombies have a bit more attack damage
Leader zombies have "Leader" added to their names (visible in commands, death messages, and mods that use it like health viewers)

Made for a request on the Fabric discord server. Uses sounds from Minecraft Dungeons.
