Feature Request: Add “NON_SEATED” Option for Pet Teleportation
Closed this issue · 1 comments
I'd like to request an additional configuration option for pet teleportation behavior.
Currently, the transportPets
setting supports ENABLED
, SAME_DIMENSION
, and DISABLED
. However, there's no way to distinguish between sitting and standing pets.
Proposal
Introduce a new option—NON_SEATED
—for transportPets
. This would teleport only standing pets, ignoring any pets that are sitting.
Why this matters
- In vanilla Minecraft, sitting pets are used to indicate “stay here.” Teleporting them anyway goes against expected behavior.
- Players may accidentally teleport their entire pet collection—dogs, cats, parrots, etc.—to dangerous dimensions like the Nether, simply by forgetting they were nearby.
- It would offer much-needed control and prevent accidents without requiring leads or disabling pet transport entirely.
Suggested Config Snippet
# Waystones Teleportation Settings
# Set to ENABLED to have nearby pets teleport with you.
# Set to SAME_DIMENSION to have nearby pets teleport only when not changing dimensions.
# Set to DISABLED to disable pet teleportation.
# **NEW**: Set to NON_SEATED to teleport only standing (non-sitting) pets.
transportPets = "NON_SEATED"```
I'm not sure how difficult this change would be to implement, but I believe it would be a valuable quality-of-life improvement. Thanks for considering!
