So whats going on? Why does Playable Pets require a mod to function now?
To keep it really short, its to make it easier to maintain development and cut out the loads of work needed to manage/shift through the multiple versions and keep them synced with each other.
But what does this mod do for you? Honestly, most of the good stuff is for me, as it makes my life infinitely easier. However there is benefits to users as well:
- All of the gameplay configurations options are now handled in one place, this mod. No more shifting and configuring all the mods to have similar settings. (This does not include enabling/disabling mobs).
- Reduces frequency of having to update all the mods. Since most of the important code is in this mod, only this mod would be needed to be updated in the event new features get added.
- Increases performance. While most likely not noticeable, it does fix some long term issues from having multiple PP mods enabled.
- It makes the mods run.
