Simple Command Whistle
by OldFriendTNT
Simple Command Whistle is a Forge utility for 1.20.1 that lets players control tamed mobs at a distance with whistles.
What it does
The mod adds whistles that issue commands to tamed mobs from a distance, and it uses its own stand-up and sit-down system so tamed mobs respond properly to the whistle. It can be customized and is built to work alongside other mods that handle tamed creatures. It runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it, and the Forge build covers 1.20.1 only, with 1.0.0 as the latest file, released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Distance control
Whistles let a player command tamed mobs from a distance instead of standing next to each one.
Stand and sit commands
The mod handles standing up and sitting down for tamed mobs, which the whistle triggers.
Simple crafting
The whistle is crafted from planks, a log, and common materials such as crystal, diamonds, amethyst, emerald, quartz, prismarine, or Echo Shard.
