Teapot's Giant Boar

<h3><strong>Requirements:</strong></h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>* <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/petai" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pet AI</a>: taming, commands and all the pet behaviour. <em>(PetAI 5.1.1+)</em><br />* <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/jaunt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jaunt: Entity Movement System</a>: Riding, gait and stamina system. <em>(Jaunt 3.1.0+)</em></p> <p><strong>Both are required</strong>. The mod shouldn't work as intended without these.</p> <h3><br />Summary:</h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><em>*Slaps top of the boar*</em></p> <p>These big boys can fit so many repressed anger in them. They aren't your usual fat/meat farm. A single giant boar may fend off a pack of wolves and a couple of them might even take down bears! <em>If they don't kill each other first...</em></p> <p>Wild males hold territory and challenge others who dare get close. Thick-headed and aggressive towards anything naive enough to get close, better keep even your livestock away from them.&nbsp;<br />Should you tame one however, they are a loyal pet. Tame boars will follow orders, defend you, and carry you wherever to furthest lands. Better armour up a bit before taming though, they hit hard.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>In short, I've tried to design and plan it to be vanilla balanced as possible while having my Dwarf Cavalry fantasy in Vintage Story!<br />Drop in the official VS Discord for the mod's thread and say Oink-Oink! <em>Can also give feedback, suggestions If you like.</em></p> <h3><br />Gameplay and Features:</h3> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>These omnivore Giants can be tamed, bred and made into sturdy companions. Once tamed, they can protect you and your base. Saddle them up and take them for a spin! No more fearing wolves ambushing you..<br />Rival boars duel over territory, they will even challenge Tame Giant Boars if close by. Tame Boars won't engage other boars but have no problem fighting back.&nbsp;<br />Giant Boars share spawns with the vanilla boars, rarer among pigs overall and with fewer boars to a herd. They also can spawn slighly lower temperatures than vanilla counterparts.<br /><br /></p> <ul> <li><strong>Tusks</strong> &ndash; five variants on boars, two on sows, rolled when the animal spawns.</li> <li><strong>Tameable</strong> &ndash; can be fed meat, bones, vegetables or pet cookies. Commands, stances, and a downed state you can revive it (with bandages, poultices) rather than losing it. <strong><em>(PetAI)</em></strong></li> <li><strong>Rideable</strong> &ndash; saddle, bridle, gaits and a stamina bar. <strong><em>(Jaunt)&nbsp;<br /></em></strong> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle">Saddles &amp; Tack Details:</div> <div class="spoiler-text"> <p><strong>- Saddle</strong><strong>:</strong> Plain, simple saddle. (Placeholder Shape similar to vanilla)<br /><strong>- Merchant Saddle:&nbsp;</strong>Saddle with boxes, cosmetic saddlebags and a Lantern Arm. (I've based the saddle on and adjusted to my taste from an unused asset found in the elk files.)<br /><strong>- Bridle1:</strong> Bridle with toggle based movement.<br /><strong>- Accessories:&nbsp;</strong>Vanilla Saddlebags, Hay Bed, Pillion, all the vanilla Medallions, Blankets, Weapon storage on Front Slots, Lantern (designed and meant to be in use with the Merchant Saddle for now.). <em>There can be minor shape/texture issues.</em></p> </div> </div> </li> <li><strong>Part of the food chain</strong> &ndash; Bears, wolves, hyenas all hunt the Giant Boars. Once angered however they aren't so keen on running away.</li> <li><strong>They aren't solo predators</strong> &ndash; They'll spawn in groups, infight with the Males. In vanilla behaviour, piglets follow sows, sows follow boars.</li> </ul> <h3><br />Compatibility:</h3> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle">Compatibility Details</div> <div class="spoiler-text"> <ul> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/combatoverhaulforked" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Combat Overhaul Fork</a>: (In Theory) Hit locations, critical multipliers and damage resists are applied when it is installed and ignored when it is not. Thick hide and fat resist blunt weapons; piercing works best<br />- Bows, Shortswords, Falx should be able to be stored in front slots on the boar. Maces or similar can't for now.</li> <li>Vanilla predators &ndash; the mod patches bears, wolves, hyenas <em>(any wild predator Hyena+ size)</em> so they recognise Giant Boars as prey. This is the only change it patches to vanilla animals</li> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/biomes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Biomes</a> mod.</li> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/pigfeed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pig Feed</a> mod.</li> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/baconbaconbacon" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bacon Bacon Bacon</a> mod</li> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/butchering" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Butchering</a> mod</li> <li><a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/footprints" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Footprints</a> mod</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I've made and tested the mod on my crowded 161+ modlist, should be compatible most mods <em>(I guess?)</em>.<br />Should be safe to add mid-save.&nbsp;<br /><br /></p> </div> </div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3><br />Planned Features:</h3> <ul> <li>Boar Armour: Pelt and metal tiers, to make a companion that can take even more hits than it delivers. Worth the investment without being OP, hopefully.</li> <li>Tusk drops: Harvestable tusks, with a use beyond decoration.</li> <li>Boar Texture Variants: Just some colour changes, fitting the boars.</li> <li><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">More mount gear: Saddlebags and other mount accessories for more utility</span>.<strong> </strong><strong>Improved in 1.0.2</strong></li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>Current Issues:</h3> <ul> <li>There was issues with <a href="https://mods.vintagestory.at/equusferus" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Equus: Wild Horses 2.0</a
