DragonXriderX---API
by ModsOverlord
DragonXriderX---API is a Forge and NeoForge library for summoning dragon-riding characters, with companions that follow the player and fight alongside them.
What it does
The library adds characters that summon creatures. A summoned creature stays loyal to its summoner, follows the character around, and its health drops when the summoned monster takes damage, so the summoner can see how the fight is going. Both melee and ranged attacks are covered, with a warrior-hunter using small dragon skeletons in close combat and a restless warrior firing magical projectiles at distance. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are available for Forge and NeoForge across the 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 range, and the code is released under the MIT License, though the project is not open source.
