does lightning still make a pig zombie if drop is modified?

can we hook into the lightning event and make it change objects that it hits?

This could go hand in hand with the blocks drop blocks possible feature.

Wouldn't DAMAGE_LIGHTNING cover this?

True - that should solve the entity side of things - was thinking of things like lightning hits sand and replaces it with glass or has a chance of an explosion event.

Ah, I see. Would involve handling the lightning strike event, then. Not sure it fits the concept of the plugin though.
