About this project
What does Haz's Monitor Lizards add?
Haz's Monitor Lizards
Featuring the worlds biggest "dragon", the Komodo Dragon.
This mod adds 3 monitor lizards to the game, each found in climates akin to their IRL counterparts.
Komodo Dragons are the largest, and thus, most formidable of the three.
Bengal Monitors are the middle sized ones and more common than the other two.
Ackie monitors are the smallest and really are there to be cute.
I've included compatibility with Biomes, Butchering, and PetAI if you have those mods installed.
Note: If you'd like to feed Monitors with troughs, you'll need the Diverse Diets mod that lets you put meat into the troughs.
This is my fourth mod and is meant to challenge what i learned by adding jackalopes in my previous mod.
Making new animals from scratch is much more cumbersome than making variants of existing ones. I'm glad to have gone through this process to better understand what the amazing folk behind big creature mods like Draconis, or the Fauna of the Stone Age series.
Big thanks to Tentharchitect, Shintharo12, WhiskeySunshine, and PureWinter for sharing their knowledge and expertise as I was learning the steps.
With this, and the release of 1.21 to stable, I think I'd like my next project to be the start of my big end goal. So it may take me a bit.
