Changelog

1.1.6

Requires Book of Dragons 1.4+ (with Liberanimalium). Cumulative update from 1.0.2 - everything listed under 1.1.0 through 1.1.6 below is new for anyone coming from 1.0.2.

Fixed

• Crash-proofing across Book of Dragons 1.4 builds. Growth data is no longer read through DragonBase.getGrowthStage() / growth-progress methods directly (some builds only expose them on Liberanimalium's FaunaBase, which could throw a linkage error and crash the integrated server when a dragon joined the world). Growth is now resolved at runtime with a fallback to Liberanimalium's synced-data accessors; if neither exists, growth handling is skipped with a single error log instead of a crash.
• /bodtame summon no longer touches ModEntities static fields. Dragons are looked up by registry ID, which fixes the HIDDEOUS_ZIPPLEBACK static-field linkage failure seen on some Book of Dragons builds (builds the 1.1.5 registry-lookup patch started).
• Taming, growth feeding, the Stage 3 buff and the Epic Fight mount/dismount features are unchanged.

1.1.5

Fixed

• /bodtame summon resolves dragon types through the entity registry instead of hard-wired field references (first step of the fix completed in 1.1.6).

1.1.4

Changed

• Every feeding now gives 10-30 growth progress, not just growth-tagged meat. Normal food that Book of Dragons handles itself (fish, etc.) previously gave a fixed 1200/2400; it is now overridden with a random 10-30, so all feeding paths advance growth at the same rate. Stage thresholds are still configurable in bodtame-common.toml.
• Book of Dragons' natural growth over time is not affected.

1.1.3

Fixed

• Growth bar was missing when feeding normal food. The Growth: x/y | Stage: n/3 action-bar message only appeared for growth-tagged meat; food handled by Book of Dragons itself fed the dragon silently. The bar now shows after every feeding.

1.1.2

Added

• Read-only [bodtame][dismount] diagnostic logging for investigating dismount problems under Book of Dragons 1.4 (it ignores Shift to dismount and only accepts its dedicated Dismount key; while flying the key must be pressed twice). No gameplay change.

1.1.1

Fixed

• /bodtame summon and hatch auto-tame produced a dragon that owned you but still treated you as a stranger - it refused all food, stayed wary, and could not be ridden. Book of Dragons 1.4 gates feeding and riding behind its Courtship ladder, which the old instant-tame skipped. Instant tame now climbs the whole ladder to the rideable stage and sets maximum bond, retrying for a few seconds until the dragon has noticed the player. Summoned dragons are immediately feedable and rideable (a saddle is still required).

1.1.0

Requires Book of Dragons 1.4 (and its new dependency Liberanimalium). Not compatible with Book of Dragons 1.31 or older.

Changed

• Ported to the Book of Dragons 1.4 rewrite. Dragons now run on Liberanimalium's FaunaBase, so growth, bonding and commands moved to new components. Everything this mod does was re-pointed at the new API:
  • Feeding growth meat (including rotten flesh) to a tamed baby dragon still raises its growth progress and advances the stage using the thresholds in bodtame-common.toml. Off-diet feeding still adds a small bond bonus (previously "affection").
  • /bodtame summon <dragon> <player> [pos] still spawns an already-tamed dragon, now set to Follow with maximum bond. Terrible Terror and Speed Stinger were added to the list of summonable dragons.
  • Dragons hatched next to a player are still tamed automatically, and the Stage 3 riding buff still works.
• The Epic Fight battle-mode auto-toggle on mount/dismount is unchanged.

Removed

• Shoulder Surfing Reloaded / Find Me camera-lock code. Book of Dragons 1.4 handles Shoulder Surfing while riding by itself, and the mixin this mod used to cancel (ClientForgeEvents.onEntityMount) no longer exists. Shoulder Surfing and Find Me are no longer referenced by this mod.
