Brute's Bots

This mod adds a Robot mini-boss, along with some music that was planned to be used in the structure the boss is found in.

Mod Info:

The boss itself is pretty basic but has custom animations and voicelines for most actions. It doesn't spawn in naturally, so you will need to summon it in creative, with it's id being "Bot_Brute". Once killed it drops some iron as well as void stone.

There are 2 songs that were made: abandoned lab theme and a boss theme. The abandoned lab theme was completed, but the boss theme was more of a concept. The custom music also cannot be played normally, so you have to do commands to play them:

• "/sound 2d Abandoned_Lab" for the structure theme
• "/sound 2d Bot_Boss_Theme" for the boss fight theme

Once played, they can be turned off by pressing escape.

Initial ideas:

The main idea of the mod was to have a boss enemy, as well as a few small friendly and hostile robots. The initial idea for the boss, was to have it spawn underground in a structure called the "abandoned lab". The robot would make sonar like sounds while idle in the structure, helping the player find it. Once the player reaches the structure, they would have to turn the power on, which activates the boss. Killing it would also give valuable items to craft the mechanical armour, as well as some mechanical weapons. These are all of the things I wanted to initially implement:

types of robot:

• robot brute (boss robot)
• robot scout (ground robot)
• robot sentry (flying robot)
• disguised robot (robot in a cardboard box)

each robot can have different sub types (e.g. so a robot scout with a drill or a taser)

robot drops:

• robotic scraps (for armour and weapons)
• energy essence (to make a companion)
• special weapons (taser arm, drill arm, etc.)
• mechanical heart (special boss drop)

crafting:

• scrap armour - requiring robotic scraps and medium hide
• scrap sword/spear/mace - requiring robotic scraps, medium hide and energy essence
• titanium - created from large amounts of scrap as well as Adamantite
• mechanical armour - requiring titanium, energy essence and mechanical heart
• mechanical sword/spear/mace - requiring titanium, energy essence and mechanical heart
• mechanical companion - requiring titanium, energy essence and mechanical heart
