About this Mod

Wanderer

Wanderer allows you to set your tamed pets to "Wandering Mode". In Wandering Mode, your pets will simply wander around as if they were wild. This is a direct port of the same Wandering Mode from Livestock Overhaul: Pets Addon, just made for any tamable animal.

To set your pet to Wandering, Shift-Right-Click it while it's standing up.

Note that if a modded animal does not extend the TamableAnimal class, this mod will not work for it.
