#Jack In The Box

A Chest that looks normal but when you open it, a giant Jack in the box jumps out super suddenly! (good for scaring friends, just make sure their stuff is safe if you replaced their old chests)

I'm thinking maybe it could have dye variants as well

I had an idea

#

crafted with a trapped chest, a slime block and an armor stand, the jack in the box can be placed down and, at first, it looks like any normal chest, but when you open it, the jack pops out! by default it looks like the model/texture I made earlier but if you interact with it while its open you can change the variant! Interacting with an empty hand will cycle it between 3 default variations, any dye changes the colour and has unique patterns (there is not 3 of each dye). If you interact with mob heads, it will look like that respective mob, and when a player head is used, it looks like my minecraft skin! if you interact with shears it makes it look like an armor stand in the proportions of the jack! If you interact with an empty hand while the jack has a custom appearance (EXCEPT the armor stand) it will revert to default and give the costume item back (item is also returned when overwriting with a new item)! to revert an armor stand you must use wool to turn it back into the default costume (coloured wools do not change the costume)

oh this is a really good idea

#

trapped chest but it also scares people

if no one else offers to help I would be willing. I'm already working with someone else but this doesn't look too difficult to implement

#

I won't be able to do any art though

#

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH
dont worry about art, I will be happy to do all of it, I was just looking for a coder, and I am so glad you mentioned cus I was worried I would have to drop out so I REALLY appreciate this

#

if you're able to send me a basic model and animation I can start implementing it

loud quiver
#

dw im working on that now

#

once i'm done I can dm you the default model texture and animation so you can start coding, then i'll work on all the variants

mystic elm
#

the animation may need a bit of tweaking but it kinda works

#

something like wool for beds

#

thats actually a good point yeah

sorry that there havent been many updates in a while, as of right now I have finished the textures and decided to remove the armour stand idea, as well as deciding not to implement the piglin or dragon head interactions, I haven't recieved any updates from our developer nor have I seen any insights in any of the channels here, but I assume they are hard at work on the mod, we should be finished by the 18th 🙏

when it's closer to release we can discuss the final details

#

the only thing I might recommend is

#

another quick animation for after the chest opens
