Tax' Ocean Villager
by TaknaxBo
Tax' Ocean Villager adds ships with villagers and pirates to ocean biomes, plus marine equipment, custom trades and a light tower that spawns on beaches.
What it does
Ships spawn naturally in the ocean biome. Some carry a Captain Sailer who sells custom trades, while Marine Pirate ships carry a pirate and his crew. A zombified variant of the Marine Pirate ships also spawns, and its inhabitants are dangerous. Creative items for spawning ships are included, along with a light tower that generates beside beaches with an Ocean Trader.
The mod adds Marine Pirate equipment with its own music, a full set of Turtle Armor sold by the Ocean Trader, and custom paintings. It has built-in compatibility with the Recruits mod and with Fresh Animations, so no patch is needed for those two. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for Forge only, and the 1.20.1 build is the only game version. The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
Installation is Forge only, for 1.20.1 with 3.1.2 as the latest file, dated 2024-07-05. The project was first published on 2023-09-29 by TaknaxBo.
