💀 Mebahel’s Skeleton Revival

"When death is no longer the end… their skulls flee to rise again."

Mebahel’s Skeleton Revival adds a haunting twist to Minecraft combat:
When a Skeleton or Wither Skeleton dies, there’s a chance it will leave behind a living skull — a cursed remnant that runs away and resurrects its former body moments later.

📦 Required Dependencies

You must install the following dependencies:

🛠️ Forge / Neoforge (via Sinytra):

🧵 Fabric / Quilt users:

You must install:

⚔️ Features

💀 Animated skull entities that flee upon spawn
⏳ After a short delay, the skull re-summons the original skeleton
🎭 Skull appearance matches its origin (Skeleton / Wither Skeleton)
🔁 No infinite loops – reanimated skeletons won’t drop skulls again
⛓️ Spawner protection – mobs from spawners won’t spawn skulls
🧩 Mod compatibility – you can assign any entity from any mod to drop a skeleton or wither skull in a config file!

⚙️ Configurable Settings

You can adjust spawn chances via a JSON config file (config/mebahels-skeleton-revival/mebahels-skeleton-revival_config.json) at:

{
  "skeletonHeadSpawnRate": 12, (12% chance to spawn a Skeleton head)
  "witherSkeletonHeadSpawnRate": 12, (12% chance to spawn a Wither Skeleton head)
  "timeBeforeRevival": 140 (140 ticks before the Skeleton respawns, 20 ticks is 1 second)
}

Additionally, a second config file "entity-type-that-should-spawn-head_config.json" allows you to list custom entity types that can spawn skulls and respawn as the original entity :

{
  "skeletonHeadEntities": [
    "minecraft:skeleton",
    "modid:custom_archer"
  ],
  "witherSkeletonHeadEntities": [
    "minecraft:wither_skeleton",
    "modid:dark_knight"
  ]
}
