Adds 27 different type of nectar hungry butterflies to your world.
You can find them in the forest and grassland biomes where flowers are more likely to appear.
You can feed these cute little nectarivores fruits, sugar or honey to tame/heal/bred them. (editable in the item tag - tame_food_items.json file)
Though they are very weak so healing wont do much. (4 hp)
Also feeding it honey through the honey bottle will remove poison the status effect.
They are diurnal, meaning that they are active during daylight hours and rest or sleep at night. (untamed ones are sleeping at night)
And im sure you could guess, but they will fly around and go to flowers for its daily sugar intake.
While doing so some pollens will get stuck on them.
To scrub them off they will try to go to growable blocks like the sweet berry bush or crops.
This will also make these crops grow a bit. (Their search phase happens only at every 10 second, and stay for at least 20 seconds around flowers, and can only grow a crop every 10 second)
Of course if they wont find any blocks of interest, they will just go in their way wandering around.
Sometimes they will follow other creatures to "taste" them, to absorb some essential minerals
And they will randomly land on the land too do some mud-puddling. If they are attacked or stepped on they will fly off though. (Only in wandering mode)
Not like you would attack them...right?
You might as they have a very low chance (10-50% based on loot level) to drop some butterfly wings, which can be used as a brewing ingredient with the awkward potion to create slow falling potion(s).
The drop and the crop growing function can be disabled in the configs.
Just like in my other animal mods the mobs have 3 type of behavior that can be changed when interaction with them (a message shows up so you know which behavior it is using)
(wandering - resting - following)
If tamed they wont go naturally in their resting mode,
instead you can force them to stay at a place when put in resting mode.
They spawn in the flower forest, sunflower plains, meadow, plains, cherry grove, forest, birch forest and old growth birch forest biome.
You can change this and other spawn settings
by editing the json files in the jars data -> biome tags and biome modifier folders
or via resource pack,
but in fabric some spawn settings like the weight, min, max have to be edited in the config file
This mod currently supports:
Forge 26.x | 1.21.x | 1.20.1
Neoforge 26.x | 1.21.x
Fabric 26.x | 1.21.x | 1.20.1
PS.
PS: Unified Animal Garden versions will come later, but this will take a lot of time as some animals will get a complete code rework and they will only support the latest minecraft version at the release time!
And the single mod support will also continue!
When a new animal like this is released, that is the sign that a new system is being worked on in the aquarius libs.
