I am trying to make boss fight. I made a custom boss, witch (the blood witch) that will spawn one custom piglin (demon) each time she takes damage.
When the player walks on the same block as a demon they will get a potion effect. (Wither effect)
I would like to add a custom death message for the demon mob & or the potion effect.
Then I want to code a punishment for Loosing the boss fight & give the player the items to craft the spawn egg to try the boss again.
Any tips on how to finish making is? I have the mobs & a way to craft the eggs in survival, I have a good drop reward, & achievement if u win.
but I need tips on a custom death message
& or if I need to make a custom potion effect
& how I can control the punishment that happens after the player re-spawns from dyeing to the boss
Easiest way to do custom death messages would be to use a custom damage type for the mobs and/or potion effect.
For the punishment on respawn, detect if the player dies to the boss fight then save it to a player persistent variable. In the 'on player spawn' global event, check if the player has that variable set to true; if they do then enact the punishment and remember to reset the variable.
