Freeze a mob

Hey guys,

I've got another question for you. How do I freeze a mob and make it not attack while standing still?
for example a skeleton shooting with his bow.

Hope you got it!

Thanks

 

You could give the mob a slowness potion effect, though if you don't want the potion bubbles/effects you could use a scheduler/BukkitRunnable to teleport it to the same location every few ticks.
To stop the attacking, cancel every EntityTargetEvent that concerns it targeting someone

 

OracleTarget Chinwe Using the potion effect is the best solution and you can disable the potion swirling effects by making the potion effect ambient

 

Code:java

zombie.addpotioneffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.SLOWNESS, How Many Ticks, 123456789)

You can use that, but you will need to get the zombie you wanna effect.

 

EntityMoveEvent?

 

Doesn't exist, can you imagine how many times it would fire for every entity in every world? Mobs, dropped items, minecarts, xp orbs, arrows etc

 

LivingEntityMoveEvent?!?

Nope. Not a good idea.
