hey can you allow entity? :smiley:

I’m not quite sure what you mean by that, but if you’re looking to make a feature request create an issue here with what you’re thinking.

for some reason frame doesn’t catch pixelmon statue :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m just trying to figure out how server make animated statue. where the statue actually moving because all pixelmon statue just stand still

Ah I see what you’re saying now. I can look into that and see if there’s something I can do, but I believe that’s part of a much larger update. Furthermore, I officially only support vanilla, but like I said, I’ll see what I can do. I’ve never played pixelmon so it’s also would take some learning on my part.

That would be awesome! Thank you :slight_smile:
