The Suggestion

It would be cool if towerwood borers were much more aggressive than they are now. Right now the only way to encounter a borer is to manually break an infested block (or have a creeper blow it up for you), leading to basically no interaction and use for them unless the player is hunting for borer essence for carminite. My suggestion is for borers to become aggressive not only when a player breaks an infested block, but also when a player comes within a specific radius of an infested block, for example within two blocks. Not only does it give the borer time in the spotlight, but it adds a bit more challenge to the tower if the infested blocks are part of the floor, or if a lot of them happen to generate in an area.

Why Should It Be in the Mod?

Added atmosphere to the tower, added challenge, added exposure of an underutilized mob, and a slightly easier time farming borer essence.
