New Features

  • Horse hooves can be enchanted with Frost Walker to create ice while running, optimized for high movement speeds (15+ blocks per second).
  • Added an owner-priority bucking system where the horse ejects any non-owner attempting to control it, unless the owner is also currently riding.
  • Added a stat overlay to the GUI that displays a horse's jump and speed attributes when the player is holding an upgraded saddle.
  • Added support for an Ender Chest in the chest slot of the upgraded saddle to allow access to global ender inventory.
  • Implemented a JSON configuration file (betterhorses-common.json) to allow users to toggle functionality for stabilizers, medkits, hitchposts, hooves, horse exclusivity, and multi-riding.
  • Added a dummy mode for items in the config so they remain as decorative models without functionality when disabled.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bond exploit where only the first nametag used on a horse increases the bond level, while subsequent nametags only change the name.
  • Fixed a multiplayer issue where the P key (whistle) failed to call horses; the whistle is now correctly tied to the owner's UUID.
  • Pressing P now resets the horse's behavior state, clearing previous instructions like "stay" to return the horse to default follow behavior.
  • Fixed an interaction conflict where using Ctrl + Right-click to open the radial menu would unintentionally cause the player to mount the horse.
