CreatureCorner

Everything new since 1.2.

New

• Pigeons perch on iron golems: up to three at a time, one on each shoulder and one on its head. They ride along while the golem goes about its day, then hop off after a while.
  • They still scatter if you walk right up or sprint nearby, unless you're holding seeds or sneaking.
  • Golems, villagers and the golem's own fights don't scare them. Predators like foxes, wolves and caracaras still do.
  • They hop off if the golem wades into deep water or walks under a low ceiling, and head home to their loft at night or in the rain.
• Creative tab: the Creature Corner tab icon now cycles through the spawn eggs and netted bugs.

Changes

• Butterflies: about half as many. Flower forests, meadows, sunflower plains, cherry groves and the Floral Isle now have up to 5 around you instead of 10, and other biomes 1-2 instead of 2-3.
• Jacaranda blossoms fall less often. The Floral Isle now drops about as many as a cherry grove instead of twice as many, which should also help with lag there.

Fixes

• Pigeons no longer fear cats. Village cats kept scaring flocks out of villages, and the villages kept spawning new pigeons to replace them.
• Beefle: riding into deep water now throws you off instead of letting you fly underwater, so the beefle floats back up instead of drowning. Wading through shallow water still works.
