I'm obviously not the target audience, but I can see the animals are talentfully done and my youngest likes this mod a lot!

v0.20

Mobs_redo version:
-More food added: Ducky raw meat, mini lamb chop and beef steak.

Mobkit version:
-Ponies added: You can mount and breed them too.

v0.20.1

[mobkit]: No texture when a captured pet put in the world.
[mobkit]: Some minor fixes.

Added Petz.mobkit to Zombieworld server. (gundul.ddnss.de:39155)
It shows very well what can already be done with termos' new mobkit.

Nicely done your mobs.

Thanx :-)

v0.21
[mobkit]
-Added the lion. The same mobs_redo features. And more: It is a predator so it will attack big herbibores: calf, pony, piggy and lamb, and they will run away of course :-)
-Fixed: Piggy no textured.

0.21.1
[mobkit]
-You can specify a specific biome to spawn via 'petz.conf' for each pet.
-You can specify preys and predators via 'petz.conf' for each pet.

v0.22
[mobkit]
-Added grizzly and panda. Grizzly attacks lambs.

I found a bug. Kennels ignore protections when they are placed.

I notice the title says "Only for Creative mode", so maybe this is a "feature" ?

Crash at my server:
Greetings, Clyde.

-v0.22.1 [mobkit & mobs_redo]
-Fixed: Crash with ducky eggs and nest.
-Fixed: Check if node is protected before to put a kennel.

Greetings, Clyde.

Fixed. Yes, it was an error because of got two different names for ducky stuff: 'ducky' and 'duck' too. Now all related to 'ducky' is named as 'ducky' only.

I've fixed it in the very last version.

No, 'only in creative mode' means that cannot be crafted.

Thanks!

Hello, now it seems to work but:

If you milk a cow with a stack of buckets, you will get only 1 bucket of milk back. It takes the whole stack.

Imho, chicken and dugs are better to feed with seed_wheat instead wheat.

Greetings, Clyde.

-v0.22.2 [mobkit & mobs_redo]
-Fixed: Stack of buckets was replaced when milk.
-Fixed: Now chicken and ducks eat and follow the wheat seeds instead of wheat.

[mobkit]

Added "Square Ball" item to play with puppies.
-Make a Square Ball.
-Throw it to your puppy. You have to hit the target.
-Your puppy bring back the square ball to you.
-To get the ball, right click on it.

Thanks for report errors. :-)

Nice!!! This is an awesome feature!! Now we really have man's best friend, in Minetest :)

v0.22.3
[mobkit]
-Fixed collision box of the squareball when in the puppy's mouth. Now it's more easy to take out (with right click).
-Now puppy stop following you when you quit the squareball.

Hello, i have some questions.

Petz in mobkit-mode:
I test it on my server, you're welcome to take a look and check it self.

Petz seems not spawning or have heavy trouble to spawn the mobs, instead wildlife works well, is there something wrong?

Chicken and Ducks lay's their eggs in nests and breed it, it's ok and good so. Do they lay eggs without nests too? If no, how can i get an egg from the nest?

Is there a way or do you plan a feature, to protect tamed pets from killing by other players?

Information for you, tamagotchi-mode is off, all other is the original setting from your mod.

Thank you and greetings,
Clyde.

The spawn ratio are quite low by default.

The spawn system is:

-Each 1 min a search for a random pos to spawn is ran. If sucessful, a random mob is selected.
-Then the spawn engine checks if the node is the defined for that mob.
-If the node is suitable, then the spawn depends of the spawn ratio of that concrete mob (0.0-1.0), by default is 0.2, this means that mob has a 20% of chance of being spawned.
-The limit of mobs is max 30 by area.

This means that by default after one hour of game, hypothetically a max. 12 mobs could be spawned, probably 5 or less.

To increase the ratio:
-Change in 'petz.conf' the 'spawn_interval' from 60 to 1 (600% more). Now you should see the mobs appearing everywhere.
-Increase the 'max_mobs' settings.
-Increase the 'xxx_spawn_chance' for each mob.

Chicken and Ducks lay's their eggs in nests and breed it, it's ok and good so. Do they lay eggs without nests too? If no, how can i get an egg from the nest?

Yes, they can without nest, but rarely, and those eggs don't latch. In petz.conf change the 'lay_egg_chance' from 150000 to a lower value. If you put a value of 50000 you could see the ducks/chicken laying eggs on ground. You can use those eggs to put them on nests.

You can put an egg on a nest, but not extract it. I will add this feature in the next version. It has sense. :-)

Yes I know that I have to do a fine tuning of those settings. It is cause of my personal preferences, I like a hard game style.

v0.22.4
[mobkit]
-Spawn ratio of mobs increased.
[mobkit & mobs_redo]
-Ratio of ducks/chickens to laying eggs increased.

v0.22.5:
[mobkit & mobs_redo]
-Now you can extract an egg from a nest (right-click on the nest).

Finally I put:
spawn_interval = 10
spawn_chance = 0.6 for mobs to spawn on Deciduous Forest
spawn_chance = 1.0 for mobs to spawn in Savanah and Coniferous Forest

Now the mobs appear more fast and inside the 30 máx. limit

Thanks for the adaptations and explanations, now i have more the feeling, that the mod is working ;-).

Greetings, Clyde.
