VO: Better Dogs

[4.8.13-26.2] - 2026-06-21

Added

• Wolf Spawn Multiplier: Introduced a configuration setting and game rule bd_wolf_spawn_multiplier_percent (default: 1.5x) to dynamically adjust wolf spawning weights in biome settings, making them spawn more commonly.

[4.8.12-26.2] - 2026-06-21

Changed

• Tamed Wolf Wander Restriction: Replaced the owner-unaware vanilla wandering behavior (WaterAvoidingRandomStrollGoal) with a personality-based TamedWanderNearOwnerGoal. Wolves now stay closer to their owner: Aggressive (max 14 blocks), Normal (max 8 blocks), and Pacifist (max 4 blocks), preventing them from drifting too far away.
• Dynamic Wander Scaling: Integrated the wander radius with the follower spacing offset. In larger packs, the wander boundaries expand dynamically to prevent clumping and overcrowding.

[4.8.11-26.2] - 2026-06-12

Changed

• Guard Alarm Point & Freeze: Pacifist dogs will now stand up, freeze in place, and look directly at the closest detected hostile mob during sentinel alarms.

[4.8.10+A-26.2] - 2026-06-12

Changed

• Directional Guard Alarm Particles: Modified Pacifist watchdog alarm particles to shoot forward in a 60-degree cone aligning with the wolf's looking direction, spawned at head/mouth level.
