Lovely Robot: Legacy

## Overview Lovely Robot: Legacy is the current-generation companion mod. Craft a robot, give her a name, bring her along — and watch what happens when you actually spend time together. Several robot types. Sixteen colours each. A levelling system, combat specialisations, and a protection mechanic that scales with the bond you've built. Legacy is the version most players know, now rebuilt from the ground up on a clean multi-loader foundation. It's vanilla-friendly, but it rewards players who go deep. --- <div style="border: 2px solid #e74c3c; border-radius: 6px; padding: 12px 16px; background-color: #2d0a0a;"> <p><span style="font-size: 25px; color: #e74c3c;"><strong>⚠️ NOTICE — Please read before installing</strong></span></p> <p><strong>This mod requires <a href="https://modrinth.com/project/KxsiDURd">HZLib</a>, <a href="https://modrinth.com/project/bakhGE6B">LovelyLib</a> &amp; <a href="https://modrinth.com/project/8BmcQJ2H">GeckoLib</a> to work!</strong></p> </div> --- ## Robot Types Each type has a distinct personality, stat profile, and combat role. | Robot | Role | Highlight | |-------|------|-----------| | Vanilla | All-rounder | Balanced starter companion | | Bunny | Speed | Fastest movement, great for exploration | | Bunny2 | Speed / Combat | Bunny with more bite | | Bunny3 | Speed / Pastel | Bunny in a softer colour palette | | Honey | Support | Resource management and automation | | Dragon | Heavy Combat | Highest damage, intimidation aura | | Neko | Agile Combat | High attack speed, pounce, night vision | | Kitsune | Support / Buff | Fox blessings, tail progression up to 9 tails | All types are available in **16 dye colours**. --- ## Features - **Levelling system** — robots gain XP in the field and level up to type-specific caps (80–150) - **Named robots level faster** — a small XP bonus once you give your robot a name - **Protection system** — damage type resistance scales with level and integrates with enchantments - **Combat specialisations** — each robot type has unique abilities and combat patterns - **Smart Core Retrieval** — if your robot dies nearby, her core flies back to your inventory automatically; glowing outline if she's out of range - **Ctrl+Shift+Empty Hand pickup** — convert your robot back to a spawn item without losing any data - **Health persistence** — robot health is preserved across world reloads - **Sitting animations** — dynamic hitbox, random delay transitions, vehicle sitting support (boats, minecarts, horses) - **Core glow** — colour-coded team scoreboard integration, 16 colours - **Base Defense Scan** — four patrol patterns (FULL_SCAN, DOUBLE_SWEEP, QUADRANT_CHECK, RANDOM_POINTS) - **Commands** — `/llovely` with list, summon, teleport, stats, config --- ## Dependencies - **LovelyLib** (required) - **HZLib** (required) --- ## Compatibility | Minecraft | Fabric | Forge | NeoForge | |-----------|--------|-------|----------| | 1.21.1 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | 1.20.1 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.19.4 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.19.2 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.18.2 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.17.1 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.16.5 | Planned | Planned | — | | 1.12.2 | — | Planned | — | | 1.7.10 | — | Planned | — | Implementation for 1.21.1 is in progress.
