CC: Rideable Turtles
Hop on a turtle and ride along — or let your programs pick up and haul mobs around.
CC: Rideable Turtles adds one thing to CC: Tweaked: a seat turtle upgrade. Saddle up a turtle and it becomes something you can actually ride, and something your Lua code can use to move creatures from A to B.
🪑 Ride your turtles
Attach a saddle to any turtle and sit on it. Your turtle program drives; you're the passenger. Because the rider is glued to the turtle's real animation, the ride is perfectly smooth — no rubber-banding, no lag, no stutter — and it costs nothing when no one's aboard.
- Sit down: sneak + right-click with an empty hand.
- Get off: sneak, just like a boat.
- The saddle shows on top of the turtle.
🐄 Haul mobs with code
Give your turtles a job. The seat is also a peripheral, so programs can grab a mob in front / above / below, carry it anywhere, and drop it off exactly where you want:
local seat = peripheral.find("turtle_seat")
seat.mountDown() -- scoop up the mob beneath the turtle
-- ... fly it across the base ...
seat.dismount() -- set it down in front
Build mob taxis, automated barns, sorting pens, arena loaders — whatever you can script.
✨ Features
- Ride any turtle with a saddle — normal or advanced.
- Buttery-smooth movement that tracks the turtle's animation client- and server-side.
turtle_seatperipheral:mount/mountUp/mountDown,dismount/dismountUp/dismountDown,hasRider,getRider.- Pre-made Rideable Turtles in the ComputerCraft creative tab.
- Carry almost anything — animals, monsters, villagers, even players.
- Boss-safe: bosses are excluded via a datapack-editable tag (
#c:bossessupported), so modded bosses are easy to block too. - Configurable: toggle programmatic mounting, player mounting, and whether captured mobs keep their AI.
🔧 For programmers
peripheral.find("turtle_seat") gives you the whole API. getRider() returns the rider's
type, name, and whether it's a player; the mount/dismount calls run as turtle actions and
return true or false, reason. Full example:
pen_to_pen.lua.
📦 Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.1
