How to make a mob work for you

So I am thinking about making an Atronach mod and I need to make the constructs to attack all hostile mobs. Does making them tamable automatically do so?

If you're planning to make them tamable by the player then you could do that, then they will attack mobs that you hurt or that attack you automatically. However you can also go to their "AI and goals" tab, and use an "Attack entities of type (monster entity/mobentity)"

Well that partially worked. except I set the fire one to attack monster entities, and it ended up attacking the water construct, even though I labled the water one as a creature.
