About Reusable Cattle Box

From mod.io

Makes the Cattle Transport Box reusable: releasing a boxed animal returns the empty box to your inventory.

Reusable Cattle Box

Tired of crafting a brand-new Cattle Transport Box every single time you want to move a farm animal? This mod turns the box into a reusable tool.

In vanilla Core Keeper the Cattle Transport Box is single-use: the moment you release a boxed animal back into the world, the box is consumed and gone. With Reusable Cattle Box, releasing the animal hands the empty box straight back to your inventory — so a single box lasts forever.

What it does

  • Releasing a boxed farm animal returns the empty Cattle Transport Box to your inventory.
  • Craft one box, reuse it indefinitely — capture, carry, release, repeat.
  • Works with every farm animal: Moolin, Bambuck, Roly Poly and the rest.
  • Purely additive — catching and releasing behave exactly like vanilla otherwise, and you still get exactly one box back per animal you release.

Multiplayer

Install the mod on both the client and the server.

Settings

Toggle the mod on or off in-game under Options → Mod settings — switch the reusable box off to return to vanilla single-use without uninstalling.

Requirements

  • Mod Settings Menu (required) — hosts the in-game settings screen
  • CoreLib (required) — a dependency of Mod Settings Menu

mod.io will prompt you to install both when you subscribe.
