Kakapos
by jocosero
With Kakapos installed, flightless kakapo parrots generate in jungle biomes and can be tamed, followed and seated by players.
What it does
Kakapo parrots spawn in dedicated jungle areas, which the mod adds to the world generation of the game. Players search for these flightless birds and can tame one using apples or carrots. Once tamed, the kakapo follows its owner and can be ordered to sit.
A tame kakapo also reacts to nearby jukeboxes and dances when music plays. The birds make custom sounds of their own. The mod was first made as a small addition to the game and later shared with Forge users, and it uses GeckoLib animations for the bird models.
Files are published for Forge only, 1.19 – 1.20.5, with 0.1.1-1.20 for 1.20.5 as the latest build. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so it works on a client alone, a server alone or both. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.
