Have you ever wanted to carry a cute little baby mob with you through your world to accompany you on your wild adventures? Because I know I sure have!
I'm excited to introduce Sack O' Critters, a tiny quality of life mod that currently adds one item: the Burlap Sack.
The Burlap Sack is used to catch baby mobs and carry them with you anywhere you'd like! To get started you must start by arranging 5 string in a V-shape in a crafting table to recieve your Burlap Sack which stacks up to 16!
To use your new Burlap Sack, Walk up to a baby mob of your choice and right-click, whether it's a baby sheep, baby cow, baby chicken, or a baby mob from nearly any other mod just like that, you can carry a cute little critter in your inventory!
When you're ready to let your new friend out to play, walk over to any surface in your world and right-click and boom, you can run around with your new best friend!
Notes for the current version: Tamed pets are protected, you can't catch a friend's wolf or cat or any other tamed pet, not even your own. Filled sacks never despawn when dropped.
