Mob ai.

I was wondering if there was a plugin that makes mobs all float in water and makes all mobs ignore players even if punched.

Gravity is handled client side. You can keep them in the air by applying velocity, but it won't look like they're floating and will be really tough on the server. Basically what I am saying, no there isn't a plugin like that.

I have seen it on another server. Unless this is changed in 1.8.8 spigot it should be possible. And i should've clarified float as in float in water.

You would still have to use a shitty work around, mobs wouldn't be able to move, and it would be hard on the server

This confuses me because its a big factions server with this feature and it has no issues as i believe.

It confuses you because you aren't a developer and don't own a big factions server.

You would have to change the block under the mob to water then constantly send packets to every player nearbly telling their client it is air, not water. If you want the mob to be able to move you would have to constantly do what I described above. Not only would this be hard on the server, it would mess with anti-cheat plugins.

I thought mob ai was also related the server and not the client, with libsdisguises stopping players from being targeted and such.

The AI is server side so you can manipulate their movement, but that doesn't mean gravity is server side. Why do you think many hacked clients have an option to let you fly.

Are you looking to buy this? If so how much is your budget? I think I might know of a way to make this work.

What? Gravity and velocity are most definitely handled server-side.

Are you sure? I think velocity is client side, thus anti-knockback.

Yes but that only applies to players, not mobs.

Oh, that makes sense.

I coded this plugin for my friend who was making an HCF server, and it works fine. Couple of simple lines of code. I'll send it to you over Skype if you want, I do not mind.

Is that you saint from ipvp? Also is there a easy fix for this?

Floating in water is a bit challenging, preventing mobs from targeting is easy.

Was the floating in water a default feature on minecraft a few months ago? I noticed on a server I played that they had it then it was gone.
