Birds – Beta
Birds! A new animal joins the scenery. This mod is in Beta and will be reuploaded once finished.
This mod adds birds that will roam your world.
It’s still pretty basic, but getting to this point was probably the hardest part of the journey.
Right now they can roam your world, peck the ground, and most importantly, fly.
At the heart of this mod is a custom pathfinder that enables birds to fly without crashing (mostly).
It stores quite a lot of data in your savegame file; therefore, before deleting, make sure you go into any level with the mod active and click C + L + A to delete any bird’s data.
When playing a new map, this mod will have to build navigation data and can take about 30 seconds. It won’t take as long if you play the same map again later.
What is planned for this mod?
Rewrite of the behavior code
Enable feeding birds
Make birds poo (on the player as well)
Sound effects
Make the birds react to the player (fly away when close or get scared when too loud)
And more….
I’ve been working on this since 01.11.2023 (dd.mm.yyyy)
And progress is a little slow, and birds might be a little buggy at times.
