A quick short introduction of trees and apple trees in MadMartian Mod and how they behave. Beware of unexpected creepers, trees don't react too nicely to explosions!
This is a very brief sneak peek at the new path-finding AI called "Hydrazine Mod" as part of our suite of mods. I am almost finished coding and expect to release this weekend!
**UPDATE:** This new pathfinding engine has been dramatically improved and *released* under the Apache 2.0 license over at my Github page: https://github.com/MadMartian/hydrazine-path-finding. Now you can take advantage of this high-performance path-finding engine in your own sandbox voxel game (not just Minecraft!). *Mad Martian Mod* uses the Hydrazine Path-Engine and the popular *Minestom* does as well.
The performance boosts are absolutely INSANE! I am getting 100x to 1000x performance boosts!! my code doesn't even show-up on the hot-spots list in YourKit Java Profiler! This proves that Java is NOT slow, it's bad code that slows things down. If you write code well then Java can make it very fast, almost as fast as C.
The video shows how the path-finding algorithm computes paths for mobs by highlighting the blocks as it searches.
Yellow: The path that a mob is following
Blue: Trade secret
Red: The next place the mob is trying to get to
Green: The final destination where the mob is trying to get to
LordRyuTenshi and Vonkepps follow a rumor of a powerful weapon wielded by an angry and formidable foe deep within the bowels of an ancient and mysterious dungeon.
Should they succeed, this coveted weapon will be theirs for the taking!

Testing the Hydrazine path-engine for swimming mobs such as fish, sharks, piranhas, anglers (etc., credit goes to Animals+ mod, a very nice light-weight and focused mod, highly recommend!)
They did something peculiar that I did not expect chasing me out of the water and even onto the land where they beached themselves! I haven't decided if this is a bug or a feature, lol.

I gave leather armor to my pet doggos so they can fight longer and harder. It's dyable, it's enchantable, and it's repairable.
