Whiteflash Stasis

Quickstart

1. Craft a Neuralyzer at a crafting table.

1. Hold the Neuralyzer and aim at a living mob within 9 blocks.
2. Use the Neuralyzer normally to turn the mob into a white statue for 15 seconds.
3. Sneak while using it on a mob to create a permanent statue instead.
4. Aim at a statue and sneak-use the Neuralyzer to thaw the mob and restore it.

You can also obtain the Neuralyzer from the Equipment section of the Creative inventory.

Overview

Whiteflash Stasis lets you pause living mobs as white statues that match their shape and appearance. The original mob remains alive in stasis behind the statue, preserving its traits and health.

Temporary whiteflashes last 15 seconds. Sneak-use creates permanent stasis, allowing you to make displays, hold dangerous mobs in place, or safely examine a creature before thawing it.

What It Adds

• Neuralyzer — A handheld device that flashes mobs into stasis.
• White statue displays — Statues use the target's appearance, body shape, size, baby state, and visual variant where available.
• Temporary stasis — Freeze a mob for 15 seconds.
• Permanent stasis — Sneak-use on a living mob to keep it frozen until manually thawed.
• Trait and health preservation — The original creature returns rather than being replaced by a new mob.

How To Use

The Neuralyzer works by targeting the mob you are looking at.

Targets must be within 9 blocks and in your line of sight. Players, items, projectiles, and other nonliving entities cannot be whiteflashed.

Each successful flash or thaw consumes one durability point. The Neuralyzer has 64 durability. After a successful use, it has a cooldown of about 1.5 seconds before it can be activated again.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Neuralyzer at a crafting table using iron, redstone, ender eyes, copper, and a stick. The complete recipe is shown in the Quickstart section above.

In Creative mode, search for Neuralyzer in the Equipment category.

Abilities And Mechanics

White Statue Display

The visible statue is a white representation of the mob that was flashed. It remains at the target's original position and orientation. Different mob families use different statue shapes, including humanoid, quadruped, flying, aquatic, and spider-like forms.

The statue is a display rather than a normal solid mob: it cannot be pushed around and does not behave like the creature it represents.

Mob Preservation

Whiteflashing does not create a replacement creature. The original mob is hidden and held in place while its statue is displayed.

Stasis preserves the mob's existing traits, such as its current form and other creature-specific state. Its health is recorded and restored during stasis, so damaging the hidden mob does not permanently reduce the health it had when flashed.

Temporary Stasis

A normal use freezes the target for 15 seconds. When the timer ends, the statue disappears and the original mob thaws automatically.

Permanent Stasis

Sneak-use the Neuralyzer on a living mob to create a permanent statue. Permanent statues remain until you sneak-use the Neuralyzer on them again.

Permanent statues are useful for mob museums, decorative displays, holding hostile mobs safely, and pausing animals without waiting for a timer.

Thawing

To thaw a creature manually:

1. Hold a Neuralyzer.
2. Aim at its white statue.
3. Sneak and use the item.

The statue disappears and the same mob returns at its stored location. Thawing does not create a duplicate.

Progression And Strategy

• Use normal flashes when you only need a short pause or want to test the effect.
• Use sneak-use for permanent displays and long-term containment.
• Leave clear space around a statue before thawing, especially when working with large or hostile mobs.
• Remember that the target is held at its original position, so avoid freezing creatures over hazards if you plan to thaw them later.
• Keep spare Neuralyzers available for large exhibits or repeated freezing, since every flash and thaw consumes durability.
• Use the 9-block line-of-sight range to freeze mobs before they reach you, then wait for the cooldown before targeting another creature.
