You have to get the mob close enough (1-2 blocks distance) to get on. Be careful with hostile mobs, but if you do manage to ride it it will no longer be aggressive towards players.<\/p>\n<p>![Wrangler Rod Recipe](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/WpYzryTx\/images\/5b6353b7da831111da4a348e282322ffd74548ea.png)<br \/>\n## \ud83d\udcefSPECIAL ABILITIES:<\/p>\n<p>Ravager:<br \/>\n&#8211; breaks leaf blocks and crops (vanilla feature).<br \/>\n&#8211; attacks villagers.<\/p>\n<p>Goat:<br \/>\n&#8211; toot a goat horn to make the goat ram in the direction you&#8217;re looking.<\/p>\n<p>Frog:<br \/>\n&#8211; toot a goat horn to make the frog jump in the direction you&#8217;re looking.<\/p>\n<p>Phantom:<br \/>\n&#8211; can fly!<br \/>\n&#8211; after its tamed it will not burn in the day and it will stay in one place when dismounted.<br \/>\n&#8211; if you&#8217;re not holding a wrangler rod while riding it will auto return to its &#8220;return point&#8221;.<br \/>\n&#8211; toot a goat horn to set the point where the phantom will return to on its own.<\/p>\n<p>Ghast:<br \/>\n&#8211; can fly!<br \/>\n&#8211; toot a goat horn to spawn a fireball, you have to punch it to shoot it.<\/p>\n<p>Spider &#038; Cave Spider:<br \/>\n&#8211; can climb walls.<\/p>\n<p>Turtle:<br \/>\n&#8211; can swim underwater.<\/p>\n<p>Any mobs that don&#8217;t have a specific ability with the goat horn will jump when you toot it.<\/p>\n<p>## \ud83c\udfa8CUSTOMIZATION:<\/p>\n<p>You can very easily allow more mobs to be ridden, the datapack is made in a way that it works on basically any mob, these are just the only ones I set it to work with. To change that you need to go into the datapack zip file, then go data\/mobwrangler\/tags\/entity_type and there you will find some files.<\/p>\n<p>Add a mob by adding its name to the end of the text, like &#8220;minecraft:bat&#8221;. Add a comma to the one before it. The &#8220;rideable&#8221; file contains all the mobs that can be ridden, if you want the mob to also have a special ability like swimming underwater, flying or climbing then add it to those files as well.<br \/>\n![Example for how to add a mob support](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/f7b54efd84ff64c0ef643e60bc739c4b17a6d5df.png)<br \/>\n## \u274cUNINSTALLATION:<br \/>\nIf you don&#8217;t end up liking the pack it should be fine to just remove it, there isn&#8217;t anything that can break, however mobs changed by it will still be affected. Ravagers will stay pacified<\/p>\n<p>## INCOMPATIBILITIES:<br \/>\nThis pack uses teams to make hostile mobs you&#8217;re riding not attack players, so if anything you have uses teams as well its possible things could get messy.<\/p>\n<p>## \u2755SUMMARY:<br \/>\nThis datapack gives a lot more options for mounts, some being just for fun and some being useful situationally! Phantoms are great for exploring, turtles are good for underwater, zoglins are just cool&#8230; ;D<br \/>\nIf you have any questions, issues or suggestions you can DM me on Discord @Gurkis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ride and control more mobs like the Ravager, Sniffer, Zoglin, Phantom &#038; more!
