|
|
|
- The Armor Stand becomes an **RS-MobStand**.
|
|
- The Mob Stand is initially **paused**.
|
|
- The stand is ready to be configured.
|
|
|

## 4. Configure the Mobs
|
|
Before resuming the Mob Stand, configure which mobs it should manage.
|
|
|
|
### Adult Mobs
|
|
Use **Adult Filters** to select the adult mobs the stand should affect.
|
|
|
|
### Baby Mobs
|
|
Use **Baby Filters** to select the baby mobs the stand should affect.

These filters work as **whitelists**.

## 5. Configure the Scan Radius
|
|
Set the horizontal scan radius to determine how far from the Mob Stand mobs can be detected.
|
|
The vertical scan area is limited to:
|
|
|
|
- 2 blocks above the stand's base level
|
|
- 2 blocks below the stand's base level
|
|
|
|
You can use **View Radius** to temporarily display the configured operating area with particles.
|
|
The visualization is visible only to the player who activates it.

## Converting Back
|
|
If you no longer want the Armor Stand to function as an RS-MobStand, use **Convert Back**.
|
|
The Mob Stand is returned to a standard vanilla Armor Stand.
|
|
This follows the RSScripting conversion standard: an RS device can be converted back into the standard vanilla object it was created from.
