The Knocker Remake [With Unique AI]

Thumbnail: The Knocker Remake [With Unique AI] Go to files

You might remember the Knocker, that ominous dude who is known for his suspicious behaviors and interest in disturbing people at home by knocking on doors and windows. This addon expends on that AI.

Development note:

The knocker is originally made by M_Productions!

You can find his original mod here: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/the-knocker

Credit goes to him for coming up with the origin of this cool, ominous character!

Although taking inspiration from the Knocker because he is very cool!

I massively expanded on His AI and behavior for this Bedrock Remake!

I really enjoy to experiment with making super lifelike AI for various custom Minecraft entities!

The Knocker was a really nice concept to practice my coding on!

So I made this Unique Knocker AI completely for fun!

Just for people to enjoy and have a unique (scary) experience in Minecraft!

This addon might expand as far as I see fit for cool, scary concepts!

Stay tuned! ; )

Watch these Addon showcases if you dont mind spoilers and want some info:

You might wanna discover this addon yourself!

Some tips though:

  • He randomly spawns at night time,
  • He usually operates at night time,
  • He can learn to mess with you at day time too,
  • Never look HIM straight into HIS eyes! To prevent a conflict with an entity you probably can't defeat (Less sensitive on popular demand),
  • He has unique AI (it's intentionally made inconsistent to simulate a player like behavior),
  • Even though it's tempting to kick HIS ass, I strongly recommend either avoiding or ignoring him, as you probably won't win the fight,
  • He is avoidable if you are able to outsmart HIM,
  • Each encounter with HIM could feel different,
  • Sometimes it's better to stay inside your cosy home,
  • He adapts,
  • He has 5 faces/masks representing: Gentlemen, Murderer, Thief, Pyromaniac and Psychopath (Increased odds for rare behaviors after update),
  • Those masks each have their own Knocker behaviors,
  • He has different moods/stages,
  • He can imitate at random,
  • He taunts you at random,
  • His reactions are inconsistent, making encounters unique,
  • Strategy affects the outcome,
  • I recommend approaching him with care, as you never really know what he does,
  • If he seems stuck, don't let him fool you,
  • He fools people by acting weird,
  • He acts as a player, but could he actually be a ghost too?,
  • He isn't always hostile,
  • He actually knocks,
  • He sometimes casually whistles, trying to seem innocent and hide His suspicious activity,
  • He tries to confuse you sometimes in various ways, Never trust Him!
  • He baits players,
  • He lures them into the unknown sometimes,
  • He can be a burglar too,
  • He learns when you aren't home,
  • He can already be in your house messing about,
  • He visits various homes and structures and could be busy interacting,
  • He stalks you in various (Endless) ways as soon as He joins your world,
  • He can be evasive sometimes after the update to make room for His endless capabilities in behavior being barely used before (Fix),
  • Even though he has its behavior patterns, you can't expect him to stay consistent,
  • All these things will make sense after either playing this addon or watching videos about it, lol! ; )
  • You really just wanna experience this yourself!
  • Cheers! ; )

  1. Why are Horror mods so popular??
    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      Probably because they hype people up and inspire them somehow! Probably due to nostalgia with the horror theme! Cheers! ; )

        I hope we are talking about the same one but the one I recently tried on java doesn't say anything in chat or stuff like that. He gets boring pretty fast (to me at least) since he just places signs that say "click me" when you break them he has a chance to appear and chase after you. I'd die to have your knocker on java 😩

    Hello your mod just perfect I haven't seen such cool phone mods in a long time, but could you please add some more life to it? More interaction with the game and the world around it, or, in other words, more emotion.

    if The Knocker robs our food and breaks into our house could there be a small feature added that we can give him a flower or a food item ourselves? 🙏 maybe it could even keep him away for a very short time before he robs us again lol. but many people seem to want to give him flowers or a gift 😭

      DolphinMasterMB Author
      I don't really know if friendliness fits the Knocker though! Something to consider for later lol! Cheers! ; )

    Hey, dolphinmastermb, does this addon work standalone or do you need to have the dwellers pack activated as well?

      Chibi Skribblee Guest
      Hi! I'm not the dev, but I am playing this WITHOUT the official addon so thankfully yes! It does work without the Dwellers pack :))

        This is a standalone addon! Nothing to do with the marketplace dwellers addon lmao! Cheers! ; )

    Ozz Guest
    I've been trying to download it for days but it never shows up in the game with experiments or anything and I have deleted and download it again😿 Sometimes it shows "resourcePack.incompatible.graphics.pbr" There's no way I can use it then?
    1. Me too
    2. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      The resource pack error can be ignored lol! It doesn't affect the gameplay! The Knocker entity spawns after a few Minecraft days mostly at night and later at day! He could be very hideous! You might barely notice only hear Him sometimes! He shows up(off😂😝) eventually lmao! Cheers!🤔🤗👀👻👍

        Yeah, I just saw him, I was just very impatient and didn't find him 😩 thanks for telling me!

    Question: Can I combine this mod with Anti-Mob and Fear Craft, and other add-ons you've made? Should there be an order in which they're placed or something? I don't know if the Knocker actually appears in my world or not, and I'd also like to know how to check that.
    1. sim, só não junte ele com o Fearcraft porquê o Knocker já existe nele.
      1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
        DolphinMasterMB Author
        That's true! Fearcraft the Experiment already has the Knocker included! Cheers! ; )

    His Whistling is Too goofy, it's hard to take serious from him. - I suggest change and replace it something more sinister like whispering or any stuff or make the whisper much more dreadful as if he is getting close to you...

    btw, option To turn off: Voice message from him, his lines and dialogues are so corny though I know you trynna to replicate the "official" addon but that's the reason why I avoid it and chose this because it's free and he doesn't talk through messages (would've been great if it's an actual Voice Audio, Not Chat Messages)

    Suggestion: Add A Program Behavior That Can Actually "Stalk" You, Imagine Walking To Your Destination Unaware He's Sneaking Behind You, Or So Hiding In Terrain Or Buildings Still With A Glimpse of You Seeing Him - and or appearing right behind you as soon as turn around... would've been dope.

      Btw, @DolphinMasterMB... New Mod Trending Called "From The Caves", I Ask Wondering If You Have Planes From It Creating One For Bedrock With That Mod From Java...
    2. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      The whistling is just for fun! regarding, Him pretending to be innocent lol! An option for disabling the text messages will probably be considered for another update yes! The stalking behavior you suggested, kinda already applies for some of my entities like Herobrine and the new Cave dweller! Also the Knocker can be very sneaky too! He doesn't always whistle lol! From the caves sounds interesting and might be considered for later maybe! Cheers! ; )
