Let Your Friend Eating!

Forge NeoForge Fabric 1.16.x - 1.21.x

A simple yet fun utility mod that allows you to feed your friends (or any player) by right-clicking them with food.

Features

  • Feed Others: Use any edible item to feed another player directly.
  • Statistics Tracking: Tracks how many times you've fed others and how many times you've been fed.
  • Configurable Cooldown: Prevent spamming by setting a global cooldown.
  • Cross-Platform: Works on all major mod loaders with similar functionality.
  • Sound & Particles: Plays the eating sound, burp sound, and spawns hearts/happy villager particles.

Special Interactions

The mod handles certain items uniquely to provide a better experience:

  • Milk Buckets: Feeding milk will remove all status effects from the target player and return an empty bucket to you.
  • Stews & Soups: When feeding stews (Mushroom, Rabbit, Beetroot), you will correctly receive an empty bowl back.
  • Suspicious Stew: If you feed a Suspicious Stew, the hidden status effect (blindness, saturation, poison, etc.) will be applied to the target player!
  • Eternal/Infinite Items: The mod attempts to detect "eternal" or "infinite" food artifacts from other mods and may allow feeding without consuming the item (compatibility dependent).

Installation

Requires Cloth Config API to work properly.

  1. Download the mod `.jar` file for your version (Forge/Fabric/NeoForge).
  2. Download Cloth Config API.
  3. Place both files into your mods folder.
  4. Launch the game!

How to Use

Feeding a Player

1. Hold any Food Item in your main hand.

2. Walk up to another player.

3. Right-Click (Interact) on them.

If successful, the food will be consumed, their hunger bar will fill, and statistics will update.

In-Game Config Menu

Press F8 (Default) to open the configuration menu directly in-game. You can change this key in the Minecraft Controls settings.

Commands

All commands start with /feedfriend. Some require OP permission (Level 2).

Command Permission Description
/feedfriend stats Everyone Shows your own feeding statistics (Fed count / Eaten count).
/feedfriend stats <player> Everyone Shows the statistics of another player.
/feedfriend toggle OP (Level 2) Enables or Disables the entire mod features on the server.
/feedfriend cooldown <ms> OP (Level 2) Sets the global cooldown in milliseconds (e.g., 1000 = 1s).

Configuration

The configuration file is located at config/letyourfriendeating-settings.json.

Server Synchronization: When installed on a server, the server's configuration (Enable/Disable state and Cooldown) will automatically override the client's settings to ensure fair play.

Config Options

Option Type Default Description
feedFriendEnabled Boolean true Master switch to enable/disable the feeding mechanic.
globalFeedCooldown Integer 1000 Cooldown time in milliseconds between feeds to prevent spam.
debugEnabled Boolean false Enables debug logging in the console for developers.
