This one goes out to everyone who remembers the stream joke about me getting sponsored by Red Bull or Monster Energy drinks.
During today's 13 hour development stream JetBrains who make the IDE (basically the programming app that I use for EliteMobs) showed up on stream and gifted me a year's subscription to the software.

Back in the day, one of the Patreon rewards used to be the ability to submit suggestions for polls where a direction is picked for EliteMobs.
This was discontinued mostly because polls didn't get that much interest back then, and it was replaced with dungeons which was far more interesting.
With the success of the latest poll, I figu...

Probably sooner than most expected, myself included, Custom Models through Model Engine have been added!
This means you are now able to create your own custom models or use ones you find online to spice up the looks of your custom bosses!

Model Engine! This was a very competitive poll - 14 people seem to have joined Patreon just to cast their vote, which shows how much people got invested into this.

These directions are picked based on user feedback and things that are interesting to approach but would take time to make.

You may have noticed that lately I have not been on quite as much. This is almost entirely due to the lasik eye surgery I've been planning to have for a long time, and which I was hoping would have a very short recovery time.

Transitive Blocks are a new feature of EliteMobs 7.3.8-SNAPSHOT-1 which will are about to become a staple of EliteMobs, so I figure this might be a good place to get a bit into how they work and why they were designed the way they are.
For starters, what is a transitive block?

Just a quick notice about something that will be happening after the next public release.

For a long time it has been an ambition of mine to come up with a solid system to make global events.

The Dead Moon event was an attempt a...
