📋 About This Mod
Tired of getting your little horse stuck? FRET NO MORE.
Pony Weight Loss Program abuses the janky programming of fence gates to squeeze your horse through any single tile space!
Tractors too!
This should be compatible with any other horse mods that I'm aware of.
Known Issues:
Moving diagonally may allow your horse to clip horizontally through objects.
Moving horizontally from a gate may allow you to clip through objects.
