Details of the issue:

On a friend's public server I found a weird mob, it consists of some dirt / grass blocks, together with some obsidian blocks, but it's tilted and doesn't move. Furtheron, it show's a boss bar whitout a name and about 1/4 health. Sometimes it's invisible but has a hitbox, but sometimes it's not (server still recognizes it's hitbox).

Factorization thingamabob (Golem or something). Never found a working one, they're always bonkers way or another.

Honestly I don't know why anyone plays with Factorization nowadays, espec. on servers. It does 2 things: Barrels (they're sweet but often overtaken by JABBA) and lag due to various sources.

hmm... that's weird. shouldn't be happening.
mainly because I know that someone else found a working one on thesame server

The reason we're playing with it is because we wanted an easy setup for everyone.
Are there any successfull ways of removing it?
Like, disabling spawning of the things and regenning the chunk it's in?
how would you do that if it's possible?

It does a lot more then just that and the way it does them are in my opinion neat.

As for the original question, that is a colossus sadly enough those things are indeed a bit derpy. In order to defeat them you need to mine out special blocks from it (yes, you can mine blocks away from it). They drop useful stuff for factorization.

The original question is, how do you remove it?
The thing is bugged, is still spawning and not moving at all.
I can't defeat it.

Maybe try to remove all its the blocks using creative? Start with the special ones in case its death still triggers also remove the dirt and stone in case one of the blocks you need to destroy are behind that.

I'm gonna try that as a second attempt.

My first attempt is gonna be "/fzds removeall"
Or... does that do something dangerous?

Reason of why I'm doing it this way, no one ever was able to break any blocks of it on this server. Remember, it is most of the time invisible.

Not sure, never used the command as I never needed it
