Frequently asked questions

Why can't I pick up the mob even though I'm crouching and right clicking?
Make sure both your hands are completely empty—if you're holding anything, even in your offhand, the pickup won't work. Also check that the mob isn't too large; if it exceeds your configured max_width or max_height settings, you won't be able to grab it.
How do I get the mob back out of my inventory?
Right-click on the ground while holding the mob item to place it back into the world, or drag it to your helmet slot to wear it as a hat instead.
Can I pick up monsters or only animals?
That depends on your entity_restriction setting—by default it's usually set to pick up only passive animals, but you can configure it to allow monsters, or use the entity_whitelist and entity_blacklist to control exactly which mobs you can grab.
What happens if I drop a mob item from my inventory?
If spawn_drop is enabled in your config, the mob will be released back into the world where you dropped it; if it's disabled, the item will just drop like a normal item.
