GrimTactics

This update adds Siege Awareness, a Hardcore-focused behavior layer that makes hostile mobs react intelligently when players barricade themselves.

New

• Siege Awareness (Hardcore-only)
  • Detects when a player is enclosed inside a structure (doors/trapdoors/gates and solid walls)
  • Zombies reposition to pressure entry points (doors / chokepoints) instead of idling
  • Skeletons reposition to create firing angles and reduce easy “peek” abuse
  • Orders are rate-limited to avoid spam and keep behavior natural

Gameplay Philosophy

• No artificial damage scaling
• No block breaking
• No unfair surprise mechanics
  If you get overwhelmed, it’s because you chose a bad position — not because the game cheated.

Notes

• GrimTactics still activates only on Hardcore worlds (world name does not matter)
• Non-hardcore servers run in passive mode

Recommended

• Paper / Purpur
• Java 21
• Minecraft 1.21+
