Mob Mounter

by blockerlocker

Mob Mounter lets players ride mobs by right-clicking them with a saddle, and it works on a range of mobs beyond horses.

What it does

Players can ride a mob by right-clicking it with a saddle. Mounting a cow works the same way, and the rider can move around much like on a horse. Some mobs use another right-click interaction, such as villagers, so the mod checks for those before it mounts. Allays are carried first: a ridden allay must be held in the hand before a saddle can be applied. Mob Mounter runs on the server, and the client needs it only if the player wants it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, for 1.21.9 – 1.21.11, under the MIT License, and the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Saddle mounting

    Right-clicking a mob with a saddle places the player on its back.

  2. Ridable cows and other mobs

    Cows can be mounted, and the mount controls resemble those of a horse.

  3. Special interaction handling

    Mobs with their own right-click action, such as villagers, are handled so the saddle still takes effect.

Questions

Does Mob Mounter need to be installed on the client?

No. Installing it on the server is enough to run it, and players can join without it, so either side can skip it while the server keeps it for the mounting features.

What the author says

Want to ride a Cow? An Allay? A Wither? Well Mob Mounter makes it as easy as right clicking a mob with a saddle! Then you can easily move around like you were on a horse! Note: Some mobs may not work due to them having some other right click interaction, like Villagers. Allays can be ridden if you give them an item…
