DatapacksJava
Horse Boat
Java data pack listed for Minecraft 1.19–1.21. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on Modrinth
This data pack allows you to put horses (and other larger mobs) into boats.
Normally, you cannot put a mob into a boat if their hitbox is larger than the boat hitbox, as then you can't interact with the boat. This pack solves this issue by creating a new hitbox for the boat that is slightly larger than the mob riding it. I've done my best to make it function as close as possible to vanilla.
Mobs supported:
- Horses
- Skeleton Horses
- Zombie Horses
- Camels (if they're not sitting)
- Donkeys
- Mules
