About this project
What does Animal Care add?
This mod adds animal herding, bonding, illnesses, and personalities to Realistic Horse Genetics horses and Genetic Animals mobs. This also introduces training horses to work with cattle and the ability to lock/unlock certain stats in case you do not want to train your horse to do that thing. NOTE: The code for this mod is made entirely using AI. the artwork is all original however. There will be bugs and if you come across any let me know in the comments and i will try and fix them!
You may do whatever you want with this mod, include it in videos, edit it however you want, i do not care. This is just a project i made in a day to have fun.
NOTE This mod is still being tested on servers. (i will update this once testing with 2.8.1 is tested and keep you posted.)
UPDATE: as far as testing goes it seems to be working just fine on servers. If you come across any bugs in singleplayer or multiplayer feel free to let me know in the comments
IMPORTANT: All credits to Genetic animals and Realistic horse genetics go to their creators. I simply made this to have fun and share it with others who also might like to have these features (Genetic Animals: Mokiyoki, and Realistic Horse Genetics: Sekelsta)
