RideableTames
Ride tamed boars, wolves and deer. One craftable saddle fits all three, each animal can be switched off. Vanilla riding controls; works on dedicated servers with or without server-side simulation. Takes over Rideable Boars saddles.RideableTames
Ride your tamed boars, wolves and deer. One simple leather saddle fits all three, and each animal can be switched off in the config.
How to ride
- Craft the Saddle at a level 2 workbench: 5 leather scraps, 2 deer hides, 4 bronze nails.
- Look at a tamed boar, wolf or deer and use the saddle from your hotbar, the same way you saddle a lox.
- Aim at the saddle and press E to mount. The controls are the game's own riding: W walks, Shift gallops, S stops, E or Jump gets you off. Shift+E on the saddle takes it off.
- The animal has its own stamina for galloping and swimming, shown on the mount panel next to its trophy. Your riding skill grows as usual and makes the gallop up to 25% faster.
- An animal that dies drops its saddle. A saddle dropped on the ground stays there.
Deer cannot be tamed in the base game: that takes a taming mod such as LetMeTameYou. Tamed deer from it can be saddled.
Settings
Rules, synced from the server (in each [Boar], [Wolf], [Deer] section and in [Saddle]):
| Setting | Boar | Wolf | Deer | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Enabled |
true | true | true | false: the animal cannot be saddled or mounted; a saddle can still be taken off |
WalkSpeed |
4 | 4.5 | 5 | m/s at a walk. On its own the animal ambles at 1.5; a player jogs at 4 |
RunSpeed |
8.5 | 9.5 | 10 | m/s at a gallop, before the riding skill bonus. A player runs at 7 |
Stamina |
100 | 150 | 150 | a gallop costs 2.5 a second, swimming 5 |
[Saddle]: Recipe (LeatherScraps:5,DeerHide:2,BronzeNails:4), Station (Workbench), StationLevel (2).
Looks, per player and applied on the fly when the config file is saved: SaddleOffset and RiderOffset (metres,
X right, Y up, Z forward) and RiderPose — one of the game's riding poses (attach_asksvin, attach_moose,
attach_lox).
Multiplayer
Install on the server and on every player; Jotunn makes sure everyone has the same minor version. The saddle is handled by whoever owns the animal at the moment. With a server-side simulation mod (Dedicated Simulation and the like) that is often the server itself, and when a player mounts, the game hands the animal over to the rider. Without such a mod the owner is one of the players nearby. Both ways work.
Rideable Boars
Do not run it together with this mod: both put a saddle on the boar, so RideableTames does not load while Rideable Boars is installed. After switching, its saddles in inventories, chests and on the ground become the RideableTames saddle, and boars saddled with it keep a saddle. The command wheel of Rideable Boars is not part of this mod: tamed animals follow and stay the vanilla way.
