Buddies!

COMPATIBLE WITH:1.16.5
Savannah The Cat, Red-Footed Tortoises, Crested Gecko Variants (Fire, White Lily, & Axanthic), Leafy Greens, Mushed Bananas, Pudding, More Creative Tabs, Changes to Haku, Banana Mush Blocks, & More?!?! (+Bug Fixes)


CHANGES TO HAKU: When Haku has a full tummy, instead of being automatically picked up, you have to Shift-Right Click to pick him up, so you aren't forced to carry him! :)


Savannah The Cat:
PLEASE READ: Savannah was my girlfriends pet cat and has sadly passed away due to a reckless driver.  She was a great cat and an absolute sweetheart, who always loved to sniff shoes and play. I personally miss her very much, as does my girlfriend. I have since decided to bring Savannah to this mod, so please treat her well <3. Fin.

>Savannah spawns EXTREMELY RARELY in the Savannah biome (ironic, huh? lol).
>Savannah can be tamed with any pairs of boots (sometimes it may take multiple pairs of boots). Once tamed, she will follow you on all your adventures, as she is defiant, and does not want to stay seated.
>Savannah has a stubbier nose, shorter legs, and chubbier body than most other cats. Her tail is also always perked upright!
>Savannah is immune to fall damage, and direct attacks. If you do kill her via other means, no xp will be awarded, and shame on you!

Red-Footed Tortoises:
These tortoises are slow, but sweet. They can be found in most warm grassy areas (any Savannah or Jungle Edge variants). They Love their Greens!

>Spawn naturally in all Savannah variants, and all Jungle Edge variants.
>They're herbivorous, so they don't attack. On that regard, they follow and can be bred with Leafy Greens (Crafted with 4 Banana Leaves and a Bowl in a shapeless recipe).
>These little-guys are slow and have low health, but have a sturdy shell to soak up most damage. Though, upon death they will drop a single scute.
>They can be captured with a Small Animal Net, providing you with a Red-Footed Tortoise item

Crested Geckos:
Crested Gecko variants are referred to as Morphs, just like in the real world! These Crested Geckos all eat and breed with Mushed Banana (a single Banana in any crafting slot = 4  Mushed Bananas). There is intended to be a Crested Gecko Morph for each dimension, so keep an eye out for the 3rd Morph! As of right now, Morphs cannot be crossbred to give unique outputs (I may change this in the next major mod release).
Crested Gecko (White Lily Morph):
These illusive little guys live in The Overworld, and are exclusive to Beaches. Similar to Haku, when tamed you can Shift-Right Click to pick them up!

>These Guys are fairly rare, and only spawn on Beaches in The Overworld...
>Like all other Crested Gecko Morphs, they are picky eaters and only like to eat Mushed Bananas! If you feed them enough Mushed Bananas, they will be tamed.
>Shift-Right Clicking a tamed White Lily Morph will give you the item of that buddy to carry around!
>White Lily Morphs are Immune to lightning (this will have expanded mechanics in a future update...).
>Like all other Crested Geckos, White Lily Morphs will panic and run away when attacked :(

Crested Gecko (Fire Morph):
These illusive little guys live in The Nether, and are exclusive to Crimson Forests. Similar to Haku, when tamed you can Shift-Right Click to pick them up!

>These Guys are fairly rare, and only spawn in Crimson Forests in The Nether...
>Like all other Crested Gecko Morphs, they are picky eaters and only like to eat Mushed Bananas! If you feed them enough Mushed Bananas, they will be tamed.
>Shift-Right Clicking a tamed Fire Morph will give you the item of that buddy to carry around!
>Fire Morphs are Immune to fire and lava (this will have expanded mechanics in a future update...).
>Like all other Crested Geckos, Fire Morphs will panic and run away when attacked :(

Crested Gecko (Axanthic Morph):
These illusive little guys live in The End, and are not naturally visible. To find one, carry Mushed Banana in The End. Similar to Haku, when tamed you can Shift-Right Click to pick them up!

>These Guys are fairly rare, and are not naturally spawning mobs... To find one, carry some Mushed Banana in your main-hand in either the End Midlands or End Highlands...
>Like all other Crested Gecko Morphs, they are picky eaters and only like to eat Mushed Bananas! If you feed them enough Mushed Bananas, they will be tamed.
>Shift-Right Clicking a tamed Axanthic Morph will give you the item of that buddy to carry around!
>Axanthic Morphs are Immune to Arrows (this will have expanded mechanics in a future update...).
>Like all other Crested Geckos, White Axanthic morphs will panic and run away when attacked :(

Mushed Bananas & Pudding:
Mushed Banana, Banana Mush Blocks, & Banana Pudding?!?!

>Mushed Banana Can be crafted from a single Banana in any crafting slot. Each Banana Yields 4 Mushed Banana. It takes 1/4 the time of any other regular food to eat this, but it only restores 1 hunger point and 0 saturation...
>Try holding some Mushed Banana in your main-hand in either the End Midlands or End Highlands, and see what happens... ;)
>A 3x3 of Mushed Banana in a crafting table results in a Banana Mush Block. The Banana Mush Block has a hitbox the height of Soul Sand, squishy sounds, breaks falls, and is a semi-solid! Although it's admittedly slow, you can swim through the Banana Mush Blocks. To place one of these blocks, you will need to Shift Right-Click, as default Right-Clicking interacts with the block. On that note, Mushed Banana Blocks are an infinite food source! They can be Right-Clicked to restore 1 hunger point per click (but, no saturation is restored). Banana Mush Blocks can be put in any crafting slot to yield 9 Mushed Banana.
>Banana Pudding can be crafted shapelessly from a Bowl, 4 Mushed Banana, and 4 Sugar. It restores 10 hunger and 10 saturation (half of each entire bar), and gives the user Speed 1 for 3 seconds! Banana Pudding takes ever so slightly longer to eat than most foods. Sweet!

Other Additions/Tweaks:
These are just things that weren't major enough to get an entire text block, but that doesn't mean they aren't worth noting!

>Leafy Greens (used to breed herbivorous buddies, like Tortoises) can be crafted from 4 Banana Leaves and a Bowl. This item is not edible to players.
>Unbundled Banana Bark result in 4 Banana Bark when put back into a single crafting slot, making Bark Bundles a viable means of Storing your Banana Bark now! Yay!!!
>Tweaked the spawn rates of various mobs, and created custom spawning parameters for Crested Gecko Morphs...
>Changed the creative tabs. There are now 4 separate tabs: 1 for mobs, 1 for items, 1 for blocks, & 1 for miscellaneous. Some items have been re-organized.

+Misc. Bug Fixes! :)

Wiki Page:
>The Wiki Page is currently a WIP, and should be done soon! I am just providing the finishing touches and adding the newer items, as I want to make sure it is nice, clean, and user-friendly! Keep an eye (of ender, lol) out!

P.S. I am temporarily pausing development on this mod, but do not worry, I am not abandoning it! I will add more features over time, and will do my best to port it to newer versions of the game. I will also be looking into possibly having this mod additionally ported to Fabric.
