There are different types of companions which unique abilities.
The collector collects automatic items in a specific radius in his own inventory. You can access the inventory like a normal chest.
The companion is a combination of the collector, follower and guard and has some additional features like text lines.
Is more like a cosmetic mob which will follow you around the world.
The guard will protected you from hostile mobs and will attack any target you are attacking. Equip your guard with weapons and armor to deal more damage and to have a better protection.
The healer companion heals any player and your own companions in a specific radius. Additional healer will stack up the effect, so if you are traveling with your friends it good to have 1-2 healers in the group.
The supporter companions gives buffs to any player and your own companions in a specific radius. Additional supporter will not stack up, but they will be able to buff the whole group.
The player companions are automatically spawned in specific biomes, but could be also spawned over the specific items in the creative mode.
Tame items are needed to tame the different kind of companions. Each player companion prefer a specific tame item, in most cases you need several tame items to tame a player companion.
Most of the companions could be controlled with the following controls:
- ALT + Right Click (on Player Companion with empty Hand or Weapon) Change Aggressive status like passive, neutral, aggressive
- CTRL + Right Click (on Player Companion with empty Hand or Weapon) Order to sit / un-order to sit
- Right Click (on Collector with empty hand or normal Block) Open the companion inventory
- Right Click (on Player Companion with empty hand or normal Block) Open the companion menu
- Right Click (with Player Companion Item on Companion) Despawn/Spawn the companion
- Right Click (with Player Companion Item on empty place) Order to position
- SHIFT + Right Click (with empty hand) Pet the companion
Click with the corresponding item on the desired position and your companion will move or teleport to this position.
With the corresponding item, you can spawn / respawn your companion at any time with just a simple click on an empty space.
With the corresponding item, you can de-spawn your companion at any time. Just click with the right item on the spawned companion.
Most of the should be supported out of the box, but this is a list of mods which I personally tested and working fine with this mod:
Note: If the mod is not listed here, you need to test it on your own, if it works as expected. I'm not able to test all different kind of mod combinations or mod packs.
The easiest way is to get the identical (same type/variant) Player Companion Item (over creative mode or /give command) and just clicking on the corresponding player companion to link it.
Please keep in mind that only the owner is able to link a player companion to an item.
