Buddy Drones Mod lets you build your own personal flying companions out of standard blocks. This mod gives you a miniature helper that hovers next to you as you explore the world. The materials you choose to build with change how your drone looks and what it can do. It acts as a loyal sidekick that automatically helps you with daily tasks like fighting and gathering resources.

Buddy Drones Mod

Features:

  • Lets you construct custom drones using different blocks from your inventory.
  • Adds new rotor blocks needed to make your creations fly.
  • Changes the drone’s appearance to look like a tiny, hovering version of the blocks you used.
  • Gives the drone special abilities based entirely on the building materials you select.
  • Makes the drone follow you around automatically when you equip it.
  • Works nicely with the Accessories mod if you want to equip your helper in a special slot.
  • Includes an in-game guide if you add the optional Oracle Index mod to your game.

Drone Abilities:

  • Shoots arrows at nearby hostile mobs to keep you safe during combat.
  • Helps you break blocks while you mine for ores underground.
  • Picks up loose items on the ground so you do not have to walk over them.

How to Use:

  1. Gather standard building blocks and the new rotor blocks added by the mod.
  2. Build your drone shape using the blocks you want to define its abilities.
  3. Equip the finished drone so it starts hovering next to you.
  4. Walk around and let the drone automatically use its abilities based on its parts.
