Pet Bat mechanisms:
- if not fighting, will always follow and remain close to the owner
- if owner isn’t present (left server), remains where he last was
- tries and finds a hanging spot if it can, will not leave whatever area it is in
- can be startled from hanging spot by a foreign player, by attacks, by breaking the block, or by dropping pumpking pie
- if it gets stuck and the owner runs further off, will teleport directly into owner inventory
- bats are not fire or lava proof, or particularly resistant to explosions
- levels up by dealing damage, does not require actual kills
- levelling up boosts max health and damage
- upon reaching level 3, pet bats gain a 33% life steal on attack effect
- upon reaching max level, pet bats gain enchantment visuals
- upon “death” returns as Item to owner inventory and has to be fed before it can fly again
- if owner isn’t on the server when it dies, it really dies and is lost
- your inventory is a completely safe place, unless you happen to die
- ownership of a Pet Bat does not transfer with the Item bat, the tamer stays it’s owner
- a hurt pet bat can be healed by crafting it with pumpkin pie or by dropping pumping pie for feeding
- foreign players can feed them pumpkin pie by dropping it nearby
- only freshly dropped pie counts
- handheld bats grant night vision, regardless of their health
- yes, you can pour your cruelty, your malice, and your will to dominate all life into your bat using an anvil and pumpkin pie
- apart from healing the bat that doesn’t do much
