seals!!!

by 1rubyrain

Seals is a Fabric and Babric mod for Minecraft Beta b1.7.3 that adds a baby harp seal passive mob.

What it does

Seals spawn naturally on beaches and in snowy areas, so a world gets them without any crafting or commands. Each seal has a small chance to be generated wearing a top hat, and by default those seals do not despawn unless the configuration says otherwise. Seals also drop sponges on death, at a 1 in 5 chance, and that drop is turned off by default.

Servers that run it need every player to install it too. It depends on Glass Config API, Glass Networking and StationAPI, all three of which must be installed alongside it. Files are published for b1.7.3 only, with snapshot builds also published. The source code and the issue tracker are public, and the project is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, which is open source.

Key features

  1. Passive harp seals

    Baby harp seals wander beaches and snowy areas as passive mobs that players can approach.

  2. Sneezing reaction

    Tickling a seal's nose with a feather makes it sneeze, which causes a small explosion and drops one slime ball.

  3. Bouncing landings

    A seal that lands after a fall bounces back up, and crouching on it works in a way similar to slime blocks.

  4. Hat rarity

    Around 1 in 500 seals spawn wearing a top hat, and such seals stay in the world by default.

  5. Optional hat tweaks

    Using black wool gives seals hats, and allowing hatted seals to despawn is an option that is off by default.

Questions

Can seals be made to despawn or drop less?

The configuration controls whether hatted seals despawn and whether sponges drop on death. Both behaviors are off by default.
