Empire Ally Mod Notes

• Added the Crown of Allegiance item (craftable with gold and redstone) to recruit nearby mobs as loyal allies. Use it on a mob (must be a ground pathfinder) to bind it to you; allies won’t target you and show hearts when recruited.
• Right-click an allied mob with the crown to open the Ally Orders screen. Options: Train (safe sparring, backs off at low health), Follow (Aggressive/Defend/Passive rescue stances), and Guard (Stand, Short Patrol, Long Patrol).
• Set a guard post by using the crown on a block; the nearest allied mob you own anchors there and switches to guard mode. Guard stance chosen in the GUI controls how far it patrols that post.
• Allies follow and protect their owner based on the chosen stance, retaliate when you are attacked, and ignore friendly allies or the owner unless in training.
• Includes item model/texture, recipe + advancement unlock, translated UI/messages, and a simple menu screen for issuing commands.

Known notes:

• Allies rely on pathfinder mobs; flying or non-pathfinding entities cannot be recruited.
• Guard teleporting is minimal; extremely large gaps may require leading them closer before posting.
