Call Your Horse
by Jodek
Call Your Horse lets a player whistle a horse with a goat horn so that the horse teleports to them, wherever it is standing.
What it does
A player binds a goat horn to a horse by holding any goat horn, sneaking and looking at the horse for four seconds. The horn then takes on an enchanted look and carries the horse's name. Using the horn sends the horse to the player. The horse can be in any loaded or unloaded chunk, and the bound horn can be reset by sneaking and looking straight up.
By default the mod covers several mounts and pack animals, including camels and trader llamas. Only the owner of a horse can bind or use its horn, although the config can change that. Horse names cannot contain special characters or spaces. After any config edit, the player runs /reload in game for the change to apply.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on the server, so the server needs it while players may add it. It requires 5555ff-lib on all four loaders, and it is also available as a data pack. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 17 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, with v2.2.0.0+mod for 26.3 as the latest file.
Key features
Goat horn calling
A bound goat horn teleports its horse to the player who uses it, from any distance.
Binding by look
Sneaking and looking at a horse for four seconds creates the horn that calls it.
Callable without an owner
A config option lets horses be called without an owner, and the list of callable entities can be edited.
Player-only teleport option
Teleporting can be limited to cases where no player is riding the horse, which is enabled by default.
Automatic mounting
An optional setting mounts the player on the horse after it is teleported, and it is disabled by default.
