Simple Flying mob AI

[Eastonium]

I am trying to make a mob, and I'd like it to fly around above the ground about 10-16 blocks, wandering just like it would on ground.

The other thing I want it to do, is attack anything that attacks it, by constantly changing it's flying trajectory toward the attacker.

Please help me! (I'd really appreciate it.)

maybe you could take a look at how ghast ai work ? that a good starting point as they float around, and will attack anythign that attack them

I've already tried that, and it isn't at all what I wanted, they fly around wayyy to much. and wayy to high.

When someone tells you take a look at how something else work, they don't mean copy paste it.

They mean look into HOW it works and try to UNDERSTAND it.

 

Then you should be able to modify it slightly to get the behavior you want

I had already played around with the ghast's code for over an hour trying to get it to work the way I wanted and it didn't work.

If it's just flying you want to focus on atm, you could try looking at the bat code

From what I've seen, they tend to fly quite low, albeit in a slightly random pattern
