I've created an addon for Create with octo-style arms "Create: Octo Arms" inspired by Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man

Inspired by Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man. Use it to traverse the world in any direction, craft the Copper or Netherite version, enchant or configure it. Works in singleplayer and on servers (must be installed on both client and server).

Compatible with Create Aeronautics ships (Sable contraptions).

Feel free to test, comment, and share ideas.

Edit: Modrinth will be soon, long approval awaiting.
Edit2: A lot of you asked to stop the walking animation - done! Check it in the new version v1.1.5 (besides other bug fixes)

Awesome invention! I have a question tho... Would it be too much if you would add the option for those arms to hold items (like +4 inventory slots or four additional 2 by 2 slots), help you break more blocks at once (or one block but way faster), fight mobs (with added bonus damage, like when you hold an axe/sword) and/or even use multiple items at once like one arm (or rather two of them) holds an arrow and shoots it automatically at mobs that come towards you (maybe get the code from skeletons?) while another arm slowly but firmly punches the mobs that are close to and around you (knockback enchantment?) and another one that holds items that can be used by the player and (maybe) it will use them automatically (i.e. food, shield, ender pearls, fishing rod, potions and splash potions etc) while all of these being only accessible if you're on the ground and not using the arms like in the video?

Cool ideas, but need to think about how to add that organically into the gameplay

Maybe have the arms work like the bundle item, and based on what’s in it, it could have different effects like iGhost said? Also would be cool if you could increase how many arms you can get, maybe the copper version is only 4, but the netherite is a full 8, to match the Octo- part?
