petsful

by catfisj

Petsful lets a player pet other players, and the heart particles and arm swing show up for everyone nearby who has the mod.

FabricClient-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source26.1 – 26.1.2

What it does

The mod is a player petting feature that runs entirely on the client. Pets are synchronised between clients, which the author describes as the difference from many similar mods that depend on server support. A player with Petsful installed can pet other players and see heart particles emitted from them, while players without the mod still see the arm swing of the petting action.

Installation is on the Fabric loader only, for game versions 26.1 – 26.1.2. The base version requires neither Fabric API nor YetAnotherConfigLib, but later optional features require both Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL). Mod Menu is an optional dependency. The code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and the source code is public.

The mod can pet more players than the base feature, and it exposes an event that other mods can use to add their own entity petting behavior.

Key features

  1. Petting other players

    Players can pet other players, with heart particles emitted from the petted player for those who have the mod.

  2. Client-side synchronisation

    Pets are synchronised between clients without a server component, so the feature works on a client alone.

  3. Arm swing for everyone

    Players without the mod still see the arm swing when someone pets them.

  4. Entity petting event

    An event lets other mods add their own entity petting behavior.
