Maid Useful Task
by xypp
Maid Useful Task extends Touhou Little Maid with jobs that a maid performs on her own, including chopping trees, breaking leaves, revival and more.
What it does
The mod is an extension of Touhou Little Maid and requires it. Once installed, a maid can be given axes, hoes or scissors so she cuts down logs around her saplings, and she destroys leaves along the way. A maid can also be told to search for a specified structure near the player's respawn point, using the item in her hand as the reference.
A maid can ride in the same vehicle as her player, but only brooms are supported for this. The player presses a designated button, V by default, to direct her. Control can be given fully to the maid or only partly, depending on how the owner sets it up. The project is still in early development, and the author notes that some content may later move into Touhou Little Maid itself.
Maid Useful Task runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it, and Touhou Little Maid must be present as well. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Tree cutting
A maid equipped with an axe, hoe or scissors cuts down logs around her saplings and speeds up the work with those tools.
Leaf clearing
Leaves are destroyed as the maid works through a tree, so cleared areas stay open.
Structure search
Holding a specific item in her hand, the maid searches for a selected structure close to the player's respawn point.
Vehicle riding
A maid can share a vehicle with her player, with brooms as the only supported option, and the player calls the maid with the V key.
Maid revival
Nearby fallen players can be revived by a maid. An undead totem in the maid's bauble lets her revive without being consumed, and a countdown can replace the totem consumption used by vanilla.
