Hello! I'm making a bow enchantment called Storm, the purpose of this enchantment is that when you hit an entity, additional arrows will spawn from the sky. However, I need help figuring out either how to make the arrows try to track the hit entity or fall randomly around them, as having a set pattern will allow players to easily dodge. Currently, I have around six arrows summoned 10 blocks above the mob and one block behind, but this does not guarantee the mob will be hit. I do want to guarantee at least one or two arrows that fall will actually hit the entity.
#How to summon arrows that track an entity?

astral ice
for random pattern you can use the /spreadplayers command on arrows
mortal lantern
i did not even know this was a command whoa
astral ice
look it up.. i used it before for exactly that.. the enchantment that summons cloud of arrows above the hit target
mortal lantern
so, not sure if these are the actual numbers i'll be using, but something like this?
/spreadplayers ~2 ~2 20 4 false @e[type=arrow]
mortal lantern
so, I've changed the function to this:
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
execute at @s run summon arrow ^ ^10 ^
spreadplayers ~0 ~5 10 12 false @e[type=arrow]
unfortunately, it seems all of the arrows choose the same location. is there an example you could show me? @astral ice
astral ice
this is run as the player/entity that got hit (at their location)
mortal lantern
this is run as the player/entity that got hit (at their location)
i see, may i ask a few questions to help me understand this?
