Pathfinding - Target nearest mob

[Donut]

I'm using the latest skstuff for mob pathfinding. I know how to make a mob target the nearest mob, but only of a certain type, e.g.

on rightclick:
    spawn a zombie at the target block's location
    add pathfinder goal target nearest sheep to last spawned entity

But is there a way to make the spawned mob target the nearest mob, no matter what type of mob it is?

Just replace sheep with entity.

Just replace sheep with entity.

That doesn't work. They don't target anything.

Hi!
If you want pathfind only nearest sheep, you need to clear all pathfind before!

clear all pathfinder goals of last spawned entity

I want it to pathfind to the nearest mob, no matter what it is, not just sheep.

So you need to use these two syntaxes:

add pathfinder goal target nearest sheep or cow or chicken... or zombie to last spawned entity
add pathfinder goal melee attack sheep or cow or chicken... or zombie to last spawned entity

But I think you need to clear all path before.

Clearing all path before makes it do nothing.

Without clearing all path and using this:

add pathfinder goal target nearest sheep or cow or chicken... or zombie to last spawned entity

makes it target multiple mobs, but it doesn't always target the closest - even if there's a cow or chicken closer than a sheep, it'll still target the sheep since sheep is listed first.

Hum, maybe. I never noticed the importance in the list...
@TheBukor has the good answer
