oh ok many thanks ! sorry about the late very late reply been a hot sen since i loged in but much much appreciated. 

So I have partially tested this mod for 1.22 and so far the golems spawn in and drops work except for the ancient golem statue. It crashes the game at the end of the countdown instead of spawning the ancient golem. I have not tested the taming process yet. 

If you put this on a server, I recommend modifying the drops to exclude the ancient clay so no one can make the ancient golem statue. 

This mod seems really interesting. Does anyone know if this mod will work in 1.22?

I love this mod, I think it would be cool if the boss golem had a chance to drop the axe as a special weapon or tool

Dieciptosaurus If only there was a description you could read that tells you exactly where they spawn....

Dieciptosaurus whether they will spawn above ground or not depends on your version. If you're using the version at the top 0.1.7 then they will only spawn underground. Older versions and 0.1.7-pre.1 allow them to spawn above ground as well.

Would anyone be able to tell me where I find the golems? I'm getting mixed signals about them spawning above or below ground, but what I really wanna know is if they are biome dependent or something similar, or do they spawn anywhere that meets light level requirments?

Works in Single Player 1.21.5

jack66 Using BlockOverlay I can confirm the mod does work - however, in the json controlling them the golems do not spawn above light level 7 and their maxY is set to 0.89 so I have never seen them spawn on the surface. They only spawn underground for me. Comparing jsons between 0.1.7 and 0.1.7-pre.1, the latter uses "tryOnlySurface": true instead of maxY, which may be why they're not spawning on the surface like they're supposed to be.

awsome mod among one of my must haves oan any world i play it little more for giving if your struggling to find ore. and you still have to work for it plus they are cute. would you happen to know if the mod is working still i am using the current version. i have yet to encounter any thanks ainge for an awesome mod. :)

Okay I have a small confusion here. Is PatAi a hard requirement or is it there if you just want to make a golem fight for you? I ask because one of the versons says it is a requirement but the other says if you have pet AI you can make them fight. So does the mod only function now if you have petAi or does PetAi just give it expanded capabilities?

can I use your golem model as a base for an enemy I want to add to a mod I'm making?

You're welcome! glad i could help ;) Gsprfdude

indeed! ShiggleShaggles

Armon It would be a treat x)

Armon ty very much for making this quick version for us. I really appreciate it

ShiggleShaggles Now i have the urge to implement a Oreogolem variant xD 

At first I misread this as Oreogolem. I'm just imagining a black and white one that drops cookies.

I have released a 0.1.7-pre.1 version, which basically just brings back overground spawning-> i have nerfed the spawnrates tho. Enjoy. Also, they spawn more often over the ground, so you can use this file too LiothTheBrave :) Terisu Gsprfdude

Hey, yea i understand your point. I already thought that some people may not like it, the best solution would be a config file. At the moment im a little busy with other projects, so the fastest solution would be, that i just release a version for overworld spawning . Also, how i wrote in my release notes, i tried it out in singeplayer for around 30 minutes, and already had the feeling it was a little low, tho i was not sure, since it was only 30 minutes-> i see what i can do. Thanks for the feedback guys :) Terisu Gsprfdude LiothTheBrave

I will say the above ground spawning was a huge point of appeal for these golems, if we could get an above ground spawning toggle that'd be great

If possible, could there be a toggle in the config file when you update to allow aboveground spawning again? I don't mind if it's low but I miss seeing my boys just wandering around up there. I also only found like one golem underground so far so idk, the spawn rate down there might be way too low. Love the mod tho ty.

Maybe it's a bit much idk, but I could see it being cool if there's like weaker aboveground golems that barely give you anything, while there are stronger and more rewarding golems below ground that have the bighorner type ai where they attack if you hang around them too much.

I'm currently unable to find a single golem. I've seen tons and tons of drifers down in the caves, but not a SINGLE golem. I even went out of my way to make a spawning chamber, hundreds of drifters spawned in there but not a single golem spawned at all.

Ahhh, hahaha, okay i misunderstood you there! well, sure, i could add that ^^ SniperGecko

To clarify; the respective ore idea was a chance of; in addition to any normal spawning :)

Sounds pretty cool, especially that core mechanic-> i'll definetly write that down, for when i start implementing the new mechanic. Im not sure about the spawning only in the respective ore, but i'll think about it. Thank's for taking the time to share your ideas! SniperGecko

A few ideas for ya since you'd be more than happy ;)
If you make the change to legs, arms, torso and head; each lending itself to the loot-table and overall health and damage (copper head and copper legs? 50% of loot will be copper)
Surround a part with 6 bits, a borax and a temporal gear to change material maybe?

Furthermore, requiring a "Golem Core" or something akin to that, then you could go with a multi-path.
Just the core with legs, arms, torso and head? Normal golem.
Core surrounded by ancient clay? Ancient golem.
Core surrounded by 8 stacks of rot? Corrupted Golem
Core surrounded by Temporal Gears? Seraphim Golem (glows, friendly, attacks any rot-creatures within 4 blocks or so but not animals) Healed with matching bits to its body parts

Lastly; chance of golem spawning from cave-in of respective ores?

Thank you so much for your detailed feedback, it really means a lot! I’ll definitely implement the underground spawn mechanic and ensure it doesn’t disrupt drifter spawning. I’ll also address the other issues you mentioned, especially the ease of acquiring resources early on. Your suggestions have been incredibly helpful since im not always actively playing this game, so thanks again! :) And thank you, WarpStory, for setting things in motion for the underground spawning.

Tested the update a bit and I will say that the number of wildlife has increased, however the Golems still feel like they are the main creature that spawns. I would say there is at least 10-12 or so Golems per animal/animal grouping since Chickens often spawn together and Pigs sometimes have Piglets with them.

I did see a racoon, 2-3 bunnies, 3 groupings of chickens of around 3-5 each, 4 groups of pigs, 2 with piglets which made the group around 5 pigs, however, I use the Stone Age animal mods and I could not find a single related animal within probably 1.5-2k blocks. No wolves, no bears, no foxes, no birds of any type, no rhinos, nothing.

Along with my observations of animal to golem ratio, I would agree with warpstory that they still make mining less relevant, specifically for the early game. Earning your first copper tools is a big milestone and you are generally supposed to be using that copper wisely to secure a stockpile of Copper to enter the Bronze age, however with all the Copper golems running around once you get your first copper pick it is quite easy to acquire enough to make it pointless to mine for it, not only that but there is enough Zinc golems walking around that they making getting into the Bronze age too easy. Zinc is often hard to find for a lot of players and letting them boost through to the Bronze age so easily, in my opinion, kind of spoils the early game for anyone using the mod, especially new players.

The generous amount of black and brown coal also makes charcoal less relevant and doesn't encourage players to use the charcoal pit mechanic and the salt golems do give a little too easy access to salt which is supposed to be a rare material that you pray you find while spelunking or you pray a vendor has some halite you can grind.

The last thing is that the golems are altogether too easy to kill, most players have learned or will quickly learn that throwing spears is highly effecient and kiting the golems makes them a non-threat unless you get too close to them or foolishly try to pick up your spear(s) before its dead.

I think that perhaps an even lower spawn rate and possibly doing what was suggested, putting them only underground, would make it better as the player will have to risk fighting aggressive drifters while hunting the golems, who now in a tighter space have a far better chance of being a threat to the player knowing that the player could be ambushed by drifters or fall into a pit while backing up and tossing spears, of course the concern of what that could do to the drifter spawn is something to consider seeing as before it decimated the animal population so it might also replace drifters spawning.

Thank you for your feedback, Paradoxal warpStory. I will reduce the spawn rates further. For now, I plan to allow them to continue spawning in the overworld, rather than exclusively underground tho.

The spawn rate is so high that it essentially deletes all other possible wildlife. I saw like 3 chickens and a pig while looking around and saw probably 60 ore golems.

The mod is cool, but without fine tuning it way more you either get ores or you get animals, you can't seem to have both.

Spawn rate is too high imo, pretty much makes ore mining irrelevant. I'd suggest only spawning them underground as well

Hey, well, the 1.4 version of this mod requires it for the tameable aspect to work, and I don't know if it would lead to errors or crashes if you don't install it alongside oregolems. So, I recommend installing it. SniperGecko 

To clarify; does this mod require PetAI or only if you want the tameable aspect?

I want to confirm that their spawnrate is through the roof - I made a new world, I have a bunch of animal mods, and everywhere I turn it's golems. They're cute! I want to keep them! But they're EVERYWHERE. Looking forward to the next update!

Yes, I plan to nerf them again in the next update. I misjudged the optimal spawn rate, so I'll eventually add a config file to let you adjust it yourself. But first i'll just nerf them :) RagingLoony

Any chance you can nerf the spawns a little? They are littering every field a come across constantly lol

The Tin Golems has the same hitbox than all the other golems, despite being a lot larger.

As such, you need to aim between its legs to actually hit it. Because otherwise, your weapon will phase through its torso and head without dealing damage.

Works for 1.19.8. I would like to request a config file though- I would like to increase the spawn rate and/or drop rates of certain things (salt and limestone).

Seems to not be compatible with mods i use.

Maybe this helps figuring out why they dont spawn. Let me know if you need more info.

Armon thank you

OMG I would love to have a little golem buddy in my house. Is there any way to tame them? 

Wizard76 Yes, it does work in 1.19.3

Screwy thanks for the hint. It will be fixed in the next update

I want to ty this mod out. Does it work in 1.19.3?

Hey there! Thanks for the mod, it's a really cool and fitting addition to this game.

For most people it is totally irrelevant, but there is a small bug I discovered.

The golem's creature item is still using old texture names,

so in the inventory they look ugly and all the same. 

Other than that, everything works fine and seems quite balanced. 

Been using this for a while, and since I was still seeing them in game, I never knew it needed an update. But thanks! (Also, don't know why this mod isn't getting more attention, it's a pretty neat way to get ore so far.)
