Squeaks - The New Scouting Rodents!

Squeaks are a mob based on muroids, a superfamily of rodents that includes mice, hamsters, gerbils, and rats.

Abilities

Squeaks can:

• Be bred using seeds and/or crops
• Be tamed using fruits (they will sit upright and hold the food while eating it)
• Mimic player actions
• Ex: harvest foods alongside players, “brush” suspicious blocks alongside players
• Scout for exposed ores and unopened structure chests nearby and squeak when they find them
• Climb up the side of blocks
• Take dust baths (Roll around in sand or gravel, which will be an additional way to regenerate their health)

Appearance

• General: All squeaks have little ears and snouts, and come in a range of brown and monochrome (black to white) base colors.
• Patterns: They can be unpatterned, or have patterns such as speckled and piebald. In addition, they can be countershaded (having lighter undersides).
• Tails: Not all squeaks will have long tails (that are visible as a separate part of the model), but those that do will either have them be the base color of the squeak or pink.
• Special Variants: All-white squeaks (white with no pattern) can have red eyes, indicating albinism. White and cream colored squeaks can have siamese patterns. Some squeaks can also appear with a special chipmunk look (Light brown with unique stripes and a regular tail).

Spawning: Squeaks spawn in the plains, forests, mesas and deserts.
