FeedEntity
Share food and consumables with players and NPCs in Hytale! Hold an item, aim at your target, and press G to feed them.
What It Does
FeedEntity lets you share consumable items with nearby players AND NPCs by pressing G while looking at them. Perfect for team play, healing your horse mid-combat, or sharing potions with friends.
- Player Feeding: Share food with teammates to heal them
- NPC Feeding: Heal horses, pets, and other NPCs (toggleable per-player)
- Potion Support: Feed potions with immersive drag and drink sound effects
- Progress Circle: Visual feedback with customizable colors and text
- Reticle Icons: Heart icon for food, diamond icon for non-food items when aiming at valid targets
- Floating +HP Text: Shows healing amount above the target, visible to nearby players
- Self-Heal HUD: Shows +HP above your own health bar when you eat or get healed
- Morph Detection: Floating "MORPHED" / "REVERTED" text when feeding morph potions
- Heart Particles: Visual feedback when healing completes
- 3D Spatial Audio: Eating sounds and completion chimes play at the recipient's position
- Recipient Prompt: Optional confirmation dialog so the target can accept or deny the feed
- Consent System: Players can opt-out of being fed entirely
How It Works
- Hold a consumable item (food, potion, etc.)
- Look at a nearby player or NPC (within 5 blocks by default)
- Press G - A reticle icon appears when targeting is valid
- Optional: Confirm in the UI popup (if enabled)
- Wait 2.5 seconds while the circular progress bar fills
- Item transfers and heals the recipient
The recipient gets healed and other nearby players see floating +HP text above the target's head. Feeding sounds play in 3D spatial audio at the recipient's position.

Potion Sounds
When feeding potions, you'll hear immersive audio cues:
Drag Sound: Plays at the giver's position when feeding starts
Drink Sound: Plays at the recipient's position 1250ms later
Drop Sound: Plays at the giver's position if feeding is interrupted
These special sounds only play for potions - regular food uses standard eating sounds.
