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The knocker is originally made by M_Productions!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,
  • 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,
  • 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 can be a burglar too,
  • He can already be in your house messing about,
  • He visits various homes and structures and could be busy interacting,
  • 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! ; )

    So im trying to make a trailer for my personal realm but can't figure out the events for the knocker. I'm looking for the event were he holds the soul torch and its flickering if you could give me the event command that would be great. ๐Ÿ‘
    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar DolphinMasterMB Author
      Maybe try: "/event entity @e[family=knocker] pathx" It refreshes His behaviors, then He often starts with a Torch! Cheers! ; )

    What experimental? To use
    1. nenhum, esse addon nรฃo precisa de experimentos para funcionar.
  5. No avatar image Guest Commenter Guest
    My favourite horror mod! Also I've got some suggestions, I think it would be way creepier if you hear whispering while he is near, and also the sound of the player's heartbeat.
    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar DolphinMasterMB Author
      He does breathe tho! Take a good extra listen! You might hear it! It's subtle! Cheers! ; )

    How to replace old version and placed It with an updated new file version?. Without losing progress/deleting and creating a new world.

    And how should I know if the "version" Is up-to-date?.
    1. nรฃo tem como fazer isso, se quiser atualizรก-lo vocรช terรก que excluir a versรฃo antiga e instalar a versรฃo nova.

    Also I think it's not spawning naturally I'm in bedrock by the way do we need to like turn on any settings to make it spawn naturally?
    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar DolphinMasterMB Author
      He could spawn naturally at night and later at day too! Cheers! ; )
  9. No avatar image :)yay Guest
    Dude is there no spawn egg?
    1. nรฃo, ele nรฃo tem ovo de spawn porque ele gera no seu mundo naturalmente durante a noite.

    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar DolphinMasterMB Author
      Only with OP gear and being pro at pvp! Warning HE cheats lmao! Cheers! ; )

    The Mod was great at first for me but overtime it's getting repetitive and quite okay for me or might as well called it "less scary". he wasn't seem to be more "Superstitious" as like before - he doesn't even do his signature 'knocking' often or rarely - he always attack as soon as I saw look at him and that's basically the only thing he can do. no taunting, no stalking, not so surprises but I feel like that's on me...


    also, him teleporting very close to you despite being very afar seems a little unfair, it would be very realistic if you program something like attack him afar (like a bow) he'll just ran away and hide and play games with you - or he'll do full sprint if he can possibly get you

      I will consider your suggestions as far as possible! But He still does a lot of random stuff! I hear you often look at Him? I strongly recommend you don't! The addon experience is way more immersive if you ignore/avoid the Knocker instead of triggering Him on purpose! I might add a filter/randomizer to make Him less prone to instant triggers lol! Cheers! ; )
