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The knocker is originally made by M_Productions!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! ; )

      My friends helped me with asking permission(As I'm often pretty busy and have a lot of irl stuff etc)! The Java author responded to my friends: I could make something similar, but not identical or exactly the same! Also leaving credits on the page etc! I chose to make something familiar, but with an twist specifically aimed at Bedrock Minecraft players! To make things interesting and fun! Cheers! ; )

    My Knocker no longer knocks. And barely do something suprises and anything other than besides killing me (or just directly looking at him)...

    Is that a problem? :(, he barely even scares me no more?? :(

      You might wanna try to avoid Him instead of confronting Him! To make Him adapt in various maybe pretty interesting ways! Cheers! ; )

    yo one last thing does the knocker(old version) function properly in 1.20+???
    1. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      The old one might work, but it isn't guaranteed! The advantage with the old one specifically is: It's compatible with older Minecraft versions! Cheers! ; )

    I think you should add a feature that allows interaction with him! Similar to the bedrock version, maybe except you can actually speak back and he'll respond to certain messages? I think it'd add to the creep factor, especially if you're aiming for him to act like a player. Especially if one interaction is him trying to convince you to let him in, lol.

    i have three question to ask

    why haven't you update your first knocker?

    and why does it support 1.20.60?

    and what is your next horror/dweller mod will be in the future?

    im just curious lol! cheers

      DolphinMasterMB Author
      The old knocker hasn't been updated since because it's old lol! It might still get small updates for compatibility etc, but probably nothing major! One benefit it has: it supports older Minecraft versions! The Remake doesn't! The next addon(s) is unknown for me at the moment! I'm kinda multitasking and a little busy lol! I don't certainly know which addon will make it to publish first as many of our concepts are still pretty early development as of now lol! Cheers! ; )

    Hey Dolphinmastermb does the knocker talk to you like in the mod?
    1. Não.
    2. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      Unfortunately not lol! Maybe in the future if it fits! Cheers! ; )
  13. Is it mandatory to download the Vibrant Visuals sub-package?
    1. não, apenas se você quiser usar o addon junto com o vibrant visuals.
    2. DolphinMasterMB profile avatar
      DolphinMasterMB Author
      Only if you plan to use Vibrant Visuals! Cheers! ; )
