Leads
This Minetest mod adds leads which can be used for moving animals or for tethering animals to fence posts.
Leads can also be attached between two fence posts for decoration.
Consider installing Object UUIDs to prevent leads from disconnecting from mobs when unloaded.
Instructions
Right-click on an animal with a lead to attach it. When you're finished, punch the lead to release the animal.
You can tether a leashed animal by right-clicking a fence post. Punch the knot to take the lead back, or shift-punch to break it.
Leads can be used on animals, monsters, players, and boats. They cannot be used on G1206 diesel locomotives.
Compatibility
This mod supports Mobs Redo, Creatura, MineClone2, Mineclonia, Repixture, and Exile. Other games and mob frameworks may also work.
Minetest 5.5.0+ server required, Minetest 5.7.0+ client recommended.
Simply great
This mod allows a lot of new decoration things and looks very cool. It is easy to use, however, the selectionbox is annoyingly big in 5.6.1. (I know this mod is built for the upcoming version, tho.)
A small thing that annoys me is the giant smoke puff in Minetest Game when a lead "dies". Another small thing is the chat message. I would remove it because it quickly fills the entire chat if you misclick.
The only thing I’m missing is some subtle sound effect for attaching/detaching/etc.
I don’t know what else to suggest, so, good work!
Works well
Nice job!
I wish something like this were in MineClone2.
Create rope structures and tether animals to players and fences!
The
Leadsmod allows players to create interesting rope structures: Using the lead on two different fence nodes creates a rope connection between them. To use theLeadsmod with mobs you need a mod that adds mobs, likeAnimalia. Right click a mob with the lead to tether it to yourself and then right click a fence node to tether the mob to a fence. In both cases, you can click an existing lead to destroy it.A mob tethered using a lead is slowly drawn towards the object it is tethered to, if it does not move against that direction fast enough. Additionally, leads seem to have a maximum length and can break if overextended. In gameplay terms this means that players can only tether slow animals permanently: While
Animaliacows and sheep and even frogs are easy to tether permanently, owls eventually break free (e.g. when hunting) and foxes run away fast enough to break the lead almost immediately. Gameplay and lore match here in my opinion; obviously it is easier to tether slow-moving (domesticated) than fast-moving (predatory) animals.Criticism:
Lots of play-value
This works beautifully and adds a ton of play-value. Works great with petz, too.
Nice for building
The leads look great as detail for bridges ant towers. Finally I can have diagonal supports on my builds
It's just a holiday beginning
The most anticipated mod, but still has flaws. No slack, comes off, does not allow to lead a tethered object.
Very helpful mod
I can now decorate my bridge with lead and also can you use it in mineclone 2 and 5?
