Pet Bat mechanisms

• if not fighting, will always follow and remain close to the owner
  
• if owner isn't present (left server), remains where he last was
  
• tries and finds a hanging spot if it can, will not leave whatever area it is in
  
• can be startled from hanging spot by a foreign player, by attacks, by breaking the block, or by dropping pumpking pie
  
• if it gets stuck and the owner runs further off, will teleport directly into owner inventory
  
• bats are not fire or lava proof, or particularly resistant to explosions
  
• levels up by dealing damage, does not require actual kills
  
• levelling up boosts max health and damage
  
• upon reaching level 3, pet bats gain a 33% life steal on attack effect
  
• upon reaching max level, pet bats gain enchantment visuals
  
• upon "death" returns as Item to owner inventory and has to be fed before it can fly again
  
• if owner isn't on the server when it dies, it really dies and is lost
  
• your inventory is a completely safe place, unless you happen to die
  
• ownership of a Pet Bat does not transfer with the Item bat, the tamer stays it's owner
  
• a hurt pet bat can be healed by crafting it with pumpkin pie or by dropping pumping pie for feeding
  
• foreign players can feed them pumpkin pie by dropping it nearby
  
• only freshly dropped pie counts
  
• handheld bats grant night vision, regardless of their health
  
• yes, you can pour your cruelty, your malice, and your will to dominate all life into your bat using an anvil and pumpkin pie
  
• apart from healing the bat that doesn't do much

Not sure which of the Pet Bat files to put in the /mods
Is it the .zip, the main unextracted folder, or the one inside?

The downloaded archive, as instructed. If you see a mcmod.info file inside - thats the mod file!

What do you mean by (left server) ? Is it multiplayer compatible? And btw a great mod by a great modder!

[Noah9988]

Yay! A great mod as usual. And I like mods that add features to the current game. Like instead of creating a new mob for this, you made it bats, which is great.

[Simelineon]

WOW! You are a genius.
Having a pet beat is so cool. :3

[nworB_cirE]

Why do all of your mods have to be so cool?

[1_Cavman]

These bats are fun to have around and the higher level ones really destroy monsters. As I was playing around with it though, I found a little bug. When I moved to far away from the bat to the point it teleported into my inventory, two would appear. One I could throw out fine, and one with half a durability bar that I couldn't, both named the same. I could give those ones pumpkin pie in the crafting grid and have a working duplicate bat. Makes it pretty easy to amass a whole colony of them.

Other than that it's a great mod, and perfectly on time for Halloween!

AtomicStryker you've struck gold, yet again. As soon as I saw bats in the snapshots I wanted one as a pet. Thank you!

[Kane_Hart]

Cute mod

[Lady Eternity]

Your mods are so neat Thank you so very much for all the effort you put in. My daughter is going to this mod. And..I might enjoy it too .

1.0.2
fixed teleporting into inventory causing bat duping

[Don_Zardeone]

Conflicts with steve's carts. The modular carts become bats =[

But yay for config files! If I only knew what a good item ID to give =[

Is there a way to see which ID's are in use already?

edit: I set it to a different number and it works now =]

[RockytheSamurott]
