Hi I found these fun facts about Minecraft Snails in an old Strange Wilderness magazine from many years ago, it reads…
----The wonderful world of Minecraft Snails----
Welcome to the wonderful world of the Minecraft snail, also known as Humourus’slipus, but we will just call them snails for short, did you know that snails come in three different sizes;
-large, Cow sized & trainable as well as rideable! very rare to find and never spawns more than one in any area, 100sqx100sq.
Moves 1:2-3sq at a time, Cannot be stepped on, can block path, will not trip creatures/player over.
WARNING can be agressive if wild! likes to eat pigs and birds, sometimes bigger things too.
-Medium, pig sized and just rare to find, spawns 2 to 4, Moves 1:5sq at a time, Cannot be stepped on, can block path or cause creature/player to trip over.
-Small, normal size, only size to have glow in the dark shells, common, easy to find, spawns normally, Moves 1:10sq at a time and Can be stepped on, does not block path but will cause creature/player to trip over, if stepped in again.
Snails can climb on walls and ceilings*, if you feed a snail a flower it will stay put for a long while, you can then pick up the snail and put it anywhere, snails will stick to anything even your head, snails like this as it helps them get around quicker, unless you take them off, they will just fall off when they feel like it.
*it would be good to get them to change the orientation depending on what surface they are on, EG: upside-down on the ceiling.
Unlike some creatures, snails are friendly passive creatures, You can even walk thru a snail, it won't hinder your path or bump you, instead when you do walk thru a snail you hear a crunching sound, followed by a squishing sound, this is where you can pick up some crushed Snail shell and some squishy stuff which really don't look all that good to eat, but maybe we could use it as bait, but don’t leave it laying around, because someone or something, might just step on it fall over for a 1/4 point of damage/heart.
As you know Snails move extremely slow, almost crossing ten squares per day when night time comes most snails go into their shells to sleep, if disturbed at night and not crushed, a snail will slowly move away from the disturbance.
Birds like to eat small snails; medium sized snails like to eat birds, when they can catch them in their slime trail.
Large and medium Snails leave large and medium sized slime trails, which act as slow sand and at the same time is known to be very slippery, causing creature to fall over,( same as squishy bits)
Snails come in many different shapes and colours, some Snails glow in the dark, imagine if you will, looking out your window at night and there slowly crossing your killing zone are some glowing snail shells with maybe a slight green or blue etc.. Hue to the glow, or underwater slowly moving around looking for small crabs, while lighting up the underwater world one very slow step at a time.
Most snails can be eaten cooked, snails will make you sick if don’t cook them, but beware some snail are poisonous to eat even when cooked, best learn which colours are safest to eat, some snails can be used to make ink; most will give a dark blue or purple ink.
Whole Snail shells can have many uses, small shells can be used as ink holders or sound device maybe, while the medium snail shells can be used to carry water or even as a helmet, craft it into an underwater helm or use it to make other armoured pieces, (same as leather armour value, only looks different), large snail shells are very hardy and can be turned into very strong armour or even a large cooking cauldron for use with more larger exotic cooking recipes.
So we come to the end of,” The Wonderful World of Minecraft Snails” remember don’t just look behind you, better look where your stepping as well!
Anyways I thought you might like to read this old article about snails, I hope it helps, if you need any more info from this Strange Wilderness magazine from long ago, just ask, be glad to help. :wink.gif:

OMG !!!!!!! i love it !!!!!!!!!
currently snail jump (not cool) - i will be adding beater movement later
so far im loving the ideas i will be hoping to add up to 20 unique small snail(normal,snow,cave,glow(your idea), poisons (your idea), etc... hopefully other people can help with coming up with unique snail with unique ability maybe different poisons
snail that can be ridden will that be like riding a pig or a horse.
for your stove mod you should have some sort of recipe book or even like a list of recipes in the stove's gui screen, since there are a lot of new recipes. i might be the only one like this but i hate having to open a browser and check back to see how to craft/cook things because i cant remember them all
cool thank i'm currently work on idea for my next mod it going to be called the book mod, this will make bookshelf act like 6 slot chests which only accept book also it add an API allowing other people easily able to make a book for there mod with this mod i will add a cook book

Yes but unlike horse or pigs, snails can carry you up a sheer cliff face or maybe even a cross a high ceiling, but of course very slowly, wouldn't want to use one for a quick getaway, could also try sticking a chest on it's back for inventory space.

awesome!!! cant wait to start implementing these ideas.
this is a call to anyone how can come up with ideas and texture for variation. maybe somebody can make a Google sketch up of the medium and large.
I just had an idea for a varity of snail How about a rainbow snail that is extremity rare like if you find on holy **** that's luck 1/million. Cannot be killed it would be gay if you by mistact killed the rarest thing in that game. It can be cook to give a shell that would give you 10 hearts

Ok here you go it's my first ever google sketch up, i doubt you can use it as a 3d model, but it should give you an idea or two. http://www.mediafire.com/?io5387uo6z82zd9
If you said your next mod was the functional books and bookshelves... there already is a very similar mod that does that. I'd much rather you make awesome new mods like more creatures and animals than a mod that only has one difference from another, already existing mod.
BLESS YOU
I ALWAYS WANTED SNAILS.
That is very good for a first mod.
i might different specie that have different effect.

Try add bugs, worms, flies, bees, bumblebees, grasshoppers, butterflies e.g and rename this to Mike's Insects!
Nice ideas I was thinking about doing a frog but if people are more interested in other mob I will gladly make them instead
What do you think of my idea
Also water snails
Ok here you go it's my first ever google sketch up, i doubt you can use it as a 3d model, but it should give you an idea or two.
