Info

Merpig is a very simple mod that adds a water version of the pig. This mob will spawn randomly in the world in oceans and deep oceans. The mob can swim around in the water and be saddled as a mount. Using a 'seagrass on a stick' item the merpig can be steered around.

Why?

This mod was made at the request of Finemanederby. The idea was to create a water mount for the game. With 1.13 adding water creatures it was sad to hear they couldn't be ridden. To solve this the mod was created as a proof of concept in 1.12.
