Convert Vanilla Horses to SWEM (Star Worm Equestrian) Horses

📦 Description This (unofficial) really small, simple and lightweight datapack automatically replaces vanilla Minecraft horses with SWEM (Star Worm Equestrian) horses for any world or server — completely in the background and without any need for command blocks.

It runs every tick and uses an optimized execute command  to detect vanilla horses and summon their SWEM equivalent at the same position.

🧠 Designed for modded servers or singleplayer worlds using the Star Worm Equestrian Mod (SWEM), where you want to fully transition from vanilla to SWEM's horses.

💡 Honestly — this is something the original mod should have done from the beginning. Or at the very least offered as a simple config toggle (true/false). But for some unknown reason, it wasn’t included. Why? I don't know... So this datapack steps in to do exactly what SWEM overlooked: a smooth, automatic replacement of vanilla horses with SWEM horses.

No commands... No setup...  Just horses that work the way you'd expect in a SWEM-based world.

🛠️ Compatibility

• ✅ Tested with Minecraft 1.20.1 (requires SWEM mod).
• ⚠️ Should be compatible with 1.16.5 & 1.18.2 (same datapack structure - but not guaranteed & not tested).
