Sniffer Should Be Rideable (Up to 5 Players Can Ride one Sniffer each)

1 to 5 players can ride the sniffer. When a saddle is placed on the sniffer, 1 player can sit on top of the sniffer's head, and up to 4 players can ride on the sniffer's back. This would allow more players to be transported at the same time from place to place, like to another biome, base, structure, and more and would give the sniffer a unique purpose.

    I don't think an ancient species will be given the ability for players to mount them. There's not really a point.

    To move the Sniffer wherever you want, use Ancient Fruit with a fishing pole to craft Ancient Fruit On A Stick. Then, put a saddle onto the Sniffer and point your Ancient Fruit On a Stick in your preferred direction!

    As someone who usually single plays, I'd rather see a large sniffer have major storage space for base moves, it should be slower than a donkey with basically no jump but a mobile base would play well and make the sniffer a means to be nomadic which is rather difficult without lots of leads, donkeys/lamas, or setting down a lot of rails.

    Five players?! Sniffers seem to be around the size of a panda or a polar bear. Five players wouldn't fit. Also, 1.20 is adding camels, which is the first mob to carry two people, so doing this in the same update would undermine the camel.

    I think a new addition to the rideable mob would not work. Camel is already two-player ridable mob I think it would be great to see in the later game maybe in a future event.

    I think that would be a very good idea. You can use an ancient fruit on a stick to mount it

    Hello, that idea is good but it would be better only 3 players can ride the sniffer
