Gameplay

 * Bosses
 * Added boss names above boss health.

Blocks

Items

Mobs

 * Hostile mobs
 * Occasionally, zombies, skeletons, and zombie pigmen will spawn with the ability to pick up items on the ground.
 * Armor will automatically equip. Items will instantly be held, which is not exclusive to weapons. This means these zombies can be found holding items they have come across, such as rotten flesh.
 * This will cause zombie pigmen to drop their sword.
 * This will cause skeleton to drop their bow.
 * The attribute applied to allow them to pick up items is called CanPickUpLoot.


 * Zombie pigmen
 * In the Overworld, zombie pigmen are eager to get back in the Nether Portal (e.g., if the player makes a portal and spawns Zombie Pigmen in Creative, it will run into the portal).


 * Withers
 * When taken down to half health, they will gain Wither armor, making them immune to arrows.

Fixes

 * 2 bugs fixed
 * Fixed item frame crashes.
 * Fixed some nether portal stuff.
