# 💀 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.

## ⚔️ 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"
]
}
```
