What's new

Animal Feeder+ 1.2.0

  • Animal Qeue System
    Instead of Animals clumping around the feeder, causing traffic jams and slow feeding, animals now partivipate in a qeue system. The feeder picks 4 eligable animals that can feed, and each has a spot reserved. After they've eaten, the spot opens up for a new animal, and the one that just ate will walk away. For babies, instead of holding up the line, they will eat, walk away, and then be eligable for a spot again more quickly, so that they can grow faster.

  • Baby Growth Feeding
    Baby animals can now eat from troughs to grow faster. Each trough can use Vanilla (1×), Efficient (2×), or Fast (4×) growth efficiency. Higher efficiency gives more growth from each food item and helps reduce how much food babies consume while growing.

  • Per-Trough Enable / Disable
    Each trough can be turned on or off individually. Disabled troughs keep their food and settings but stop attracting and feeding animals.

  • Custom Feeding Range
    Each trough can use the normal feeding range or its own custom range.

  • Reachability-Aware Feeding
    Animals will only try to use a trough if they can actually reach it, preventing animals behind fences, walls, or other obstacles from getting stuck trying to path toward it.

  • Per-Trough Animal Selection
    Each trough can feed all compatible animals or only selected species.

  • Modded Animal Support
    Modded animals can be added using their entity ID, and custom entries can be removed individually.

  • Breeding Quotas
    Troughs can limit how many breeding events they cause. Limits can be unlimited, reset each Minecraft day, or remain in place until manually reset.

  • Custom Trough Names
    Individual troughs can be renamed directly from the feeder screen, allowing names such as Cow Feeder, Sheep Breeder, or Horse Nursery.

  • Expanded Trough Information & Cleaner Interface
    The feeder screen now shows its active state, stored food, feeding range, baby-growth status, selected animals, and breeding quota in a more compact layout.

  • Feeding Effects
    Animals now show food particles around their mouth and play a subtle eating sound when they successfully eat from a trough. Baby animals also receive a small visual effect when their growth is accelerated.

  • Show Feeding Range
    A Show Range button displays the trough’s feeding boundary with a visible particle cloud that follows the ground and uneven terrain. The display lasts around 10 seconds so the full coverage area is easy to inspect.

  • Persistent Per-Trough Settings
    Trough names, range, enabled state, animal selection, baby-growth settings, and breeding limits are saved individually with each trough.

  • Hopper Support
    Troughs can now be filled by connecting hoppers to them, allowing you to insert food into a chest, then having the hopper pull the food into the trough when space is avaliable.
  • Improved Side-by-Side Trough Placement

    Troughs placed directly beside one another keep a clear divider so separate feeders and their inventories are easy to distinguish.
