Taming

Enable pet-like behavior for entities. Tamed entities follow their owner and can be commanded to sit.

Basic Usage

my_pet:
  Model: pet_model
  Display: '&ePet'
  Taming:
    item: minecraft:bone
    chance: 0.33

Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
item	string	minecraft:bone	Item used to tame
chance	float	0.33	Success chance per use (0-1)
follow_distance	float	10.0	Distance to start following
stop_distance	float	2.0	Distance to stop following
teleport_distance	float	12.0	Distance to teleport to owner
can_sit	boolean	true	Can be ordered to sit
follow_speed	float	1.0	Speed multiplier when following

Behavior

Taming Process

• Use the configured item on an untamed entity
• Each use has a chance probability of success
• Hearts appear on success, smoke on failure
• Once tamed, the entity belongs to that player

Following

• Follows owner when follow_distance blocks away
• Stops when within stop_distance blocks
• Teleports if owner exceeds teleport_distance
• Won't follow while sitting

Sitting

• Right-click a tamed entity to toggle sitting
• While sitting, stays in place
• Requires can_sit: true

Default AI

Without AIGoals, tamed entities automatically get these goals:

1. sitwhenordered
2. followowner
3. float
4. lookatplayer
5. lookaround

Specify AIGoals for full control.

Pet Triggers

Use these in Skills for taming-specific animations:
