Useful Mobs

🐷 Useful Pigs

Pigs will now produce 2 babies instead of one when bred!

🦇 Useful Bats

Throwing a glow berry at a bat will give one nearby mob glowing, helping to find new caves! Also features an advancement for doing so.

🐻 Useful Polar Bear

Throwing raw salmon at a polar bear will give all nearby players strength! Also features an advancement for doing so.

🦑 Useful Squids

When damaged, squid ink now afflicts players in range with brief blindness. [3.0+] More helpfully, glow squid ink gives players brief night vision and glowing! [3.0+]

⚙️ Configuration

Use /function usefulmobs:config to enable and disable all* features! [3.0+] *The spectral arrow crafting recipe cannot be disabled with commands, and must use a separate datapack instead, sorry =(

Note

All mobs that consume items (Bats, Polar Bears, and mounted Pigs) will only consume one at a time, so it is safe to throw a whole stack!
