Courier Birds

Courier Birds 0.1.0 · NeoForge · Minecraft 1.21.1

Initial public beta of Courier Birds.

- Capture wild parrots in reusable cages, with matching colors for all five variants.
- Assign couriers to paired perches using the Courier Linker.
- Keep multiple birds with independent routes and one-stack satchels.
- Name birds with vanilla name tags and rename routes in the Courier Ledger.
- Use the rebindable L key to open the Ledger.
- Choose Stay or Return delivery modes and call idle birds to an empty perch.
- Save trips and cargo across normal server restarts and unloaded destination chunks.
- Animate takeoff, curved flight, banking, and a landing wing flare.
- Unlock vanilla recipe-book entries from the ingredient types.
- Add optional JourneyMap, Xaero, JEI, and REI integrations.
- Include the Courier Birds logo and MIT license.

This is a beta. Fullscreen map clicking and the appearance of flight still need broader gameplay testing.

Ported to the Minecraft 1.21.1 save, item model, render, and network APIs.
Requires Java 21 and NeoForge 21.1.234 or later in the 21.1 series.
