Animal Genetics
Have you ever tried breeding the perfect horse in Minecraft and wondered why it takes so long? Animal Genetics completely revolutionizes animal breeding! This mod adds a comprehensive genetic system for pigs, sheep, cows, horses, striders, foxes, wolves, and many other creatures.
The genetic mechanics are easy to understand, though the underlying math is complex. Start with two animals and produce offspring - each baby will inherit a combination of genes from both parents. Select the most promising individuals to continue breeding - you can eventually create a pig that runs faster than an airplane!
Animal Genomes
Each animal possesses five genomes that determine its characteristics:
- Speed - affects movement speed. Allows creation of both sluggish and extremely fast creatures
- Strength - controls damage, size, and resource yield when harvested. Chickens with high strength lay more eggs. At extreme values, mobs can break foliage and even fences
- Health - determines health points (from 1 to approximately 35)
- Jump - regulates horses' jumping ability (from complete inability to jump to 25 blocks high)
- Appearance - determines coloration, visual features, and behavioral patterns
Mutations and Superpowers
When breeding, parental genes not only mix but can mutate. Each genomic chain contains 5 genes capable of providing powerful positive or negative effects - this is the only way to achieve extreme characteristic values.
The appearance genome contains genuine superpowers:
- Flight and Fall Damage Protection - allows mounted air travel and eliminates fall damage
- Fire Resistance - permanent immunity to fire damage
- Water Breathing - unlimited underwater breathing
- Frost Walker - automatic creation of ice paths
- Regeneration - continuous health recovery
Admin Settings
Any user in creative mode with command access can use the options menu with the /trigger op_menu command. Here you can finely tune the mod's operation: disable genome influence on appearance, restrict mutations, or review the genetic makeup of nearby creatures.
This functionality is perfect for balancing your server according to your needs and conducting experiments with creature genetic code.
