About this project

What does BoD Tame & Growth Patch add?

BoD Tame & Growth Patch

A small personal compatibility/addon patch for **Book of Dragons** (by MrMagister), built for the "epic fight - rpg" modpack. Adds meat-based growth, auto-taming, and fixes camera conflicts between Book of Dragons, Epic Fight, and ShoulderSurfing Reloaded.

Features

**Growth**

  • Feeding a tamed dragon meat items (including rotten flesh) not on its official diet still counts toward growth
  • Custom growth stages 0→3 with configurable thresholds (default: 3600 / 6000 / 12000)
  • Each feeding adds a random 10–30 growth points
  • Action bar shows current growth progress and stage
  • Stage 3 (Titan Wing) grants a configurable buff while ridden (default: Resistance I)

**Taming**

  • /bodtame summon [pos] — spawns a dragon already tamed to the given player (op only)
  • Hatchlings (freshly hatched from an egg) are automatically tamed to the nearest player

**Camera compatibility**

  • Fixes third-person camera not activating/staying while riding a dragon when ShoulderSurfing Reloaded is installed
  • Resolves a conflict with the find_me mod's camera lock system that could leave Epic Fight's auto camera switching stuck after dismounting

Commands

  • /bodtame summon [pos] (requires op / permission level 2)
  • Supported dragons: nightfury, deadlynadder, skrill, monstrousnightmare, gronckle, hiddeous_zippleback, whispering_death

Configuration

config/bodtame-common.toml

  • growth.stage1Threshold / stage2Threshold / stage3Threshold
  • stage3buff.enableStage3Buff, stage3buff.stage3BuffEffect, stage3buff.stage3BuffAmplifier

Requirements

Optional (only used if installed):

  • ShoulderSurfing Reloaded — enables the camera fixes
  • Epic Fight — enables combat-camera compatibility
  • find_me — enables the camera-lock compatibility fix

This mod does not add any new content on its own and does nothing without Book of Dragons installed.

Compatibility notes

  • Safe to use without ShoulderSurfing/Epic Fight/find_me installed — the related features simply won't activate.
  • Not tested extensively in multiplayer beyond a solo world; camera-related code is client-side only and gated to avoid dedicated server issues.

Credits

  • Growth/taming mixin approach inspired by tcrcore (P1nero)
