Nano Swarm
A Nano Swarm is a throwable entity that will infect the first mob it touches. After infecting the mob, a player can control what the infected mob does by communicating with the nano swarm through an antenna. Before a nano swarm can be thrown (or shot by a dispenser), it first must be linked to an antenna. To do this, simply right click on an antenna with the swarm in your hand.
Many attributes and actions for the infected entity can be accessed through the nano swarm. However, the nanobots can only perform a certain amount of actions and gather so much data before they become unusable. By default, the nanobots can only receive 8 instructions before being destroyed. This is configurable in the config file.
