Bedrock uses a component-based JSON system for entity behaviors. Map out the behaviors from the Java mod (e.g., custom health, movement speed, or attack damage) and write them into Bedrock behavior files inside a behavior_packs folder. | | Logic | Java Classes | scripts/main
Java mod logic (e.g., “when player right-clicks with a stick, summon lightning”) must be rewritten as:
