Piggy Bank
by ChinaEX123
Piggy Bank adds a tameable mob to Forge and NeoForge worlds, taken from a minigame-style pig that runs from attackers and can be tamed with amethyst shards.
What it does
Piggy Bank adds a passive pig-like creature that flees quickly when attacked. Right-clicking it with an amethyst shard attempts taming, and a failed attempt does not end the interaction. Once a Piggy Bank has been tamed, it stays with the player and no longer runs away. The taming success rate can be changed through the mod's configuration file, and the mod also draws amethyst shards toward the creature in its own way.
The creature drops emeralds when defeated, and the amount depends on how much damage the player dealt, so stronger attacks yield more. Death also has an effect: a Piggy Bank can drop raw or cooked porkchops depending on how it died. A random loot system adds extra item drops to the mix. The mod requires Geckolib, which must be installed on the same loader. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, across the 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 26.1.2 game versions.
