Description

🕸️ Simple Mob Catcher

Tired of pushing cows into boats? Hate building 1000 blocks of rails just to move one Villager? Simple Mob Catcher is here to help!

This mod adds a single, useful item: the Mob Catcher. It allows you to pick up passive mobs as items and release them anywhere else. It is designed to be balanced for survival gameplay.


✨ Features

  • Easy Transport: Simply Right-Click a mob to catch it, and Right-Click on the ground to release it.

  • Data Preservation: The net saves everything about the mob — Health, Custom Name, Villager Trades, Cat Variants, and Saddle/Inventory.

  • Balanced Gameplay:

    • The item has Durability (it is not infinite).

    • Requires Ender Pearls to craft.

  • Safety & Protection:

    • 🚫 No Griefing: You cannot catch tamed pets (Wolves, Cats, Parrots) owned by other players.

    • 🚫 No Cheating: You cannot catch Hostile Mobs (Zombies, Creepers), Bosses (Dragon, Wither), or Players.

  • User Friendly: Informative tooltips and Action Bar messages tell you exactly what's inside the net or why you can't catch a specific mob.


🔨 Crafting Recipe

To craft the Mob Catcher, you need String, an Ender Pearl, and a Stick.

  • Top & Sides: String

  • Center: Ender Pearl

  • Bottom-Right: Stick
