About this Mod

I made this mod for my non-gamer girlfriend

Have you played (or wanted to) Minecraft with your friend or a partner? Did you have different playstyles? Maybe one of you is all into combat and adventure while other is just into mining and building? In that case this mod might help you a little bit.

This mod adds a few improvements for partners, making their life easier, or harder if you are Protector.

Adds two roles: Protector and Gatherer
Protector role is for experienced players, you will be main focus for hostile mobs
Gatherer role is for newbies, those who dont like fighting and just want to enjoy the game peacefully. You wont be attacked by hostile mobs, but you can still die. You can now also vein mine whole ore veins.

You can also link a pouch with other player and you have extra inventory to use by pressing P.

Your parther will also be outlined (x-rayed) up to a few blocks away so you can find each other easier.

Any ideas or problems you can share with me in Discord, either join my group (discord link) or add me (klempo19#4076)
