Requires the library mod Collective.
This mod is part of The Vanilla Experience modpack and Serilum's RPG Bundle mod.
Bareback Horse Riding allows players to ride horses without having a saddle. You can take that horse you've just found with you, without having to leave it and look through dungeon chests for a saddle. By default, riding a horse without a saddle will give the player and horse the Slowness effect. You can also enable receiving damage every 15 seconds in the config. Wearing leather pants will prevent the slowness/damage, but lower its durability every time it negates. Everything is configurable and features can be toggled.
Tame functionality remains the same. And a horse can only be steered once it's friendly and tamed.
Configurable: ( how do I configure? )
shouldReceiveSlownessDuringRidingWithoutSaddle (default = true): If the player (and horse) should receive the slowness effect when riding a horse without a saddle.
shouldDamageDuringRidingWithoutSaddle (default = false): If the player should be damaged when riding a horse without a saddle.
leatherPantsNegateEffect (default = true): If wearing leather pants should prevent the player from being damaged or received slowness, if enabled, when riding without a saddle.
ticksBetweenDamage (default = 300, min 1, max 72000): How often the player should be damaged, if enabled, during riding without a saddle in ticks. 1 second = 20 ticks
halfHeartDamageAmount (default = 2, min 1, max 100): How much damage should be done to the player from riding without a saddle..
leatherPantsLoseDurabilityOnNegation (default = true): If leather pants should lose durability each time it prevents damage.
