Block that can push/pull mobs

[tompy97]

Title.

Basically, does anyone know of any mods that add a block that can push/pull mobs from a distance?

The chronotyper from MFR can divide adults from babies. Conveyor belts from the same mod can also push entities.

Chronotyper is good, but I don't think it works on hostile mobs. The conveyor belts are also good, but they don't work from a distance.

There used to be a block in the laser mod that would push mobs, and I think one mod added a fan a while back, but I can't think of any blocks that we currently have that can do the job.

I agree with you, there seems to be a "gap in the market" for some versatile mob moving. Perhaps it will be a feature in another new mod sometime soon.

I think thaumic tinkerer added a thaumic magnet type deal that pulls in mobs, never played with it so not sure.

It's called the Thaumostatic Magnetizer/Advanced Thaumostatic Magnetizer.

yea that thingy

Ah yes, I've tried the thaumostatic magnetizer but it only worked with items, I had no idea the advanced thaumostatic magnetizer existed. It works perfectly.

Epic cursed earth mob spawner here we come...

I know you found a solution, but Extra utilities added a fan in the latest version.

I saw it in a spotlight for the mod.

Kinda pointless saying, but I have alot of plans for this in Vineacraft
Will not be for awhile, and it will be in 1.6
But still :3

Intelligent mob sorting/moving using vines.

Rail craft mob detectors. That's all I'll say.

There is an advanced thaumcraft magnatizer thing.

Mobs won't spawn on water though

Mobs won't spawn on water though

not always a need for them to spawn in water. just have them spawning on a platform, from where they'll drop into a water canal themselves.
sure, it's not the most efficient, but it's the most basic one
