The Box Trot
by Cammie
With The Box Trot, a player can turn into a living barrel that wears armour, carries a block as its head and moves around unnoticed.
What it does
The Box Trot adds a player form built around a barrel. Players who take it can wear armour and display a block in place of a head, and anyone who moves the cursor over them can see an inventory, so they must sneak to pass through someone's base unseen. The idea grew out of the 22w13oneblockatatime April Fools event and expands on it. Client and server both need the mod, and it depends on Fabric API, Pehkui and Resourceful Config. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt across 7 release versions, 1.18 – 1.21.1, under a custom license that is not open source.
