Description
Automated Minecraft Battle Machine lets you create two custom forces from supported Minecraft mobs and deploy them at a chosen location. You can name the forces, show name tags, give the mobs glowing outlines, build a temporary arena structure, save army presets, or deliver the armies as spawn eggs instead of starting an automated battle.
The controller stores your selected forces and settings for your player.
| Item | Use |
|---|---|
| Battle Machine Controller | Opens the AMBM console while sneaking and deploys the configured mode when used on a block |
| Battle Core | Advanced crafting ingredient for the Battle Machine Controller |
| Battle Charge | Deploys the configured forces when used on a block; one Charge is consumed for a valid use |
The Battle Machine Controller and Battle Charge are items, not placeable blocks.
Hold the Battle Machine Controller and sneak-use it. You can use it in the air or on a block while sneaking.
The console displays:
Use the controller on a block without sneaking while Live Battle mode is selected.
The mod:
The controller is not consumed. Live deployments are blocked when the combined army contains more than 1,000 mobs.
Use a Battle Charge on a block to deploy the currently selected mode.
The controller can also deploy either mode without consuming a Charge.
Choose one of the two force configuration buttons in the console. Each editor provides:
Setting a mob’s quantity to 0 removes that mob type from the force. The combined live-battle limit is 1,000 mobs.
Personalize Forces lets you:
Force names can contain up to 24 characters. When name tags are enabled, mobs display their force name and mob type.
| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
| Copy Left → Right | Replaces the right force with a copy of the left force |
| Randomize Armies | Generates two random forces using supported mob types |
| Mode: Start Live Battle / Give Spawn Eggs | Switches between battle deployment and spawn-egg delivery |
| Arena Walls: ON/OFF | Controls whether a stone-and-glass arena is created at deployment |
| Presets | Save or load up to eight army pair presets |
| Give Current Army Eggs | Places spawn eggs for both configured forces in your inventory |
| Clear AMBM Mobs | Removes all AMBM battle mobs in your current dimension |
| Last Battle Stats | Displays the most recently completed battle result |
Presets save the two army configurations. Personalization and arena settings are managed separately.
The mob selector includes:
Some special entities may fail to spawn in a particular deployment. Other configured mobs continue spawning normally.
Every live deployment has a 4-second charging period. When the countdown ends, the mobs are released and vanilla AI controls their movement and attacks.
The mod does not directly command individual mobs during combat. Matchups involving passive, neutral, flying, aquatic, or special mobs may behave differently depending on the location and the mobs involved.
A battle ends when one side has no remaining AMBM mobs.
The game announces:
Fireworks appear at the battle location. If both sides are eliminated, the result is recorded as No Force.
Arena Walls are enabled by default. When enabled, deployment creates:
The arena is centered on the block used for deployment. Its blocks replace existing blocks in the affected area, and the arena remains after the battle ends.
Finished battle mobs are automatically removed about 30 seconds after the battle ends. The Clear AMBM Mobs option can remove AMBM battle mobs immediately in the current dimension.
All three items are crafted at a crafting table.
A Battle Charge crafts four Charges from blaze powder, redstone, an iron ingot, and a copper ingot.
Battle Charges stack up to 16.
A Battle Core requires redstone, diamonds, and an amethyst shard.
Battle Cores stack up to 64.
The controller requires iron blocks, redstone blocks, observers, and a Battle Core.
Only one Battle Machine Controller can occupy an inventory stack.
