Call Your Nautilus
by Jodek
Call Your Nautilus lets a player summon a tamed nautilus from anywhere by playing a goat horn, including when the mob is in an unloaded chunk.
What it does
The mod adds a goat horn that calls a nautilus the player owns. Holding the horn and using it teleports the nautilus to the player, and the call works from any distance, even when the mob's chunk is not loaded. Only the owner of a nautilus can get a horn that calls it, and the horn's name is tied to that nautilus.
A horn is bound to a nautilus by sneaking while looking directly up at it for four seconds. Unbinding or resetting the horn uses the same sneak action. A nautilus can be given a name with special characters, and the enchanted horn name shows which mob it calls. The mount can be switched automatically, and the call timing and behavior can be changed in the config. The mod requires 5555ff-lib and needs to be installed on the server; clients may run it as an optional addition.
The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker. Files target 1.21.11 – 26.3 and are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. The latest build is v1.4.0.0+mod for 26.3, released 2026-09-28. The data pack is available for servers as well.

Goat horn summoning
Playing the goat horn calls the bound nautilus to the player's position, wherever the mob is.
Works across unloaded chunks
The teleport reaches a nautilus even when the chunk it stands in is not loaded.
Owner-only binding
Only the owner of a nautilus can receive a horn that calls it, so other players cannot summon it.
Sneak-and-look binding
Sneaking while looking up at a nautilus for four seconds binds the horn, and the same action resets it.

Timing and automatic mounting can be adjusted through the mod's config file.

The nautilus can be anywhere, it always works to teleport it to you, even in unloaded chunks 2. Give the nautilus any name (it can not include special characters like # or ')
