Dragon Mounts
Dragon Mounts adds eight ridable dragons that a player can hatch from an egg, tame and ride in the world.
What it does
Dragon Mounts adds eight dragons that a player can ride. A dragon egg is found in the world and right-clicked to start hatching, which takes a while. Once the dragon has grown, it is tamed by feeding it raw fish, after which it follows and protects its owner like other pets. Tamed dragons can be told to lie down or stand up with a bone, and a saddle lets the rider mount with a right click, without holding any item. A carrot on a stick steers a dragon while it is ridden.
Injured dragons heal when fed raw fish, chicken, beef or porkchop, which restores four hearts each, or rotten flesh, which restores two. The mod's dragons are presented as a reward for defeating the Ender Dragon. The mod's project has Forge builds for 1.11.2 and a ModLoader build for 1.4.7, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.
