📋 About This Mod
This mod provides a framework for creating custom mounts that spawn from custom stables.
For users, just install this mod like any other mod, it will allow mods that create custom mounts to work.
Creating Custom Mounts
To start, you will need a custom building with the "BuildingType" set to "StardewValley. Buildings. Stable".
Then, you can create a custom mount to associate with that building, using Content Patcher, targetting the dictionary at "aedenthorn. CustomMounts/dict".
