When that kind of thing happens please share what you found so that people who google this exact question have an answer when they come across this post :P
So I'm trying to put together a cool little cooperative RPG experience using a Forge server and I find that I can do the majority of what I want to do with just a few mods, it's quite a fun project so far. But I did run into one thing I'd like to do that I can't seem to find an appropriate mod for.
The basic idea is that I want a way to spawn waves of enemies that track towards my players' base and try to overrun it.
Basic features of the mod:
Some way to pre-configure different wave types (EG, 40 Zombies & 10 Creepers)
Ability for admin to spawn a wave based on a wave type at a certain location
Waves will path towards a coordinate set by admin (or a custom block placed) if no player is nearby
If a player is nearby, normal combat AI takes over
Features that would be nice to have:
Allow the mobs in waves to be custom mobs from CustomNPCs mod
Allow the mobs in waves to be mobs from Primitive Mobs mod
Ability for specific wave types to randomly (or at pre-set intervals) spawn from pre-set locations whenever 2 or more players are online
Have some NPCs able to break through blocks as they attempt to path toward their goal
Have the waves able to path for really long distances even if the chunks aren't loaded (not sure if possible)
A cool option could be to have automated waves originate from a source block which, if destroyed, stops the waves from spawning
I am not a coder so there is no way I could take this on. I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that has enough broad appeal that someone might want to take it on as a project?

Bump (hope that's okay, I gave it a while)
