Alex's Tamables (An Alex's Mobs Addon)
by JayZX535
Alex's Tamables turns selected Alex's Mobs creatures into tameable companions, and players who want them to follow them must first raise taming progress through feeding.
What it does
The addon makes more creatures from Alex's Mobs tameable while keeping the original mechanics of each animal in a way that suits its new tamed status. Tameable creatures are separate entities rather than edits to the base Alex's Mobs classes, so a default entity is replaced by a new entity type. This design reduces conflicts with other mods that modify the base Alex's Mobs code, and updates to Alex's Mobs are unlikely to affect the addon's versions. Alex's Mobs is required, and the addon is published for Forge on 1.18.2 only, as version 1.0 from 2024-03-21.
Taming runs on a progress system. Each feeding awards a random percentage within a range, and a finite number of feedings is needed before a creature is fully tamed, even with food items that award low amounts. Progress slowly decays over time, so a partly tamed creature left unattended for too long is set back. Maned wolves follow a special path: an apple on a wild wolf starts taming instead of triggering the stink effect, golden apples give high progress, and enchanted golden apples tame immediately.
Key features
Tameable Alex's Mobs creatures
Additional creatures from Alex's Mobs can be tamed, each with its own unique tamed entity.
New variants
Most tameable creatures come with new variants, many with realistic colors, and rare mutations can appear through breeding.
Progress-based taming
Feeding raises a random share of taming progress, so the number of feedings varies, and progress decays when a creature is neglected.
Maned wolf taming
Apples, golden apples and enchanted golden apples each have a distinct effect on maned wolves, and golden apples extend stink duration sixfold.
