Pet Bestiary (Formerly More Pet Slots)

Master Your Companions with Pet Bestiary for tModLoader

Tired of choosing just one loyal follower to accompany you through your tModLoader adventures? Pet Bestiary, a comprehensive overhaul of the original More Pet Slots mod, revolutionizes how you manage your collection of charming companions.

Unlock, Organize, and Showcase Your Pets

Pet Bestiary introduces a vibrant, Bestiary-style interface that allows you to unlock, activate, and manage multiple normal and light pets simultaneously. As soon as a pet’s summon item enters your inventory, that pet is permanently registered to your character within the Bestiary. From this central hub, you can easily activate your chosen companions, create saved presets for quick swapping, and even assign cosmetic dyes to personalize their appearance.

Key Features at Your Fingertips

• Equip multiple normal and light pets without the vanilla limitations.
• Pet slots are virtually unlimited, supporting up to 9999 pets per category.
• A dedicated Bestiary UI provides a clear overview of your collection.
• Separate sections for Normal Pets and Light Pets streamline management.
• Pets are unlocked simply by acquiring their summon item.
• Includes hints for unlocking vanilla pets and attempts to detect modded pets.
• Powerful search and filtering options let you find pets by name, origin (including specific mods like Calamity), and more.
• Track your collection progress with an intuitive progress bar.

The Prismatic Palette: Endless Customization

Beyond managing your pets, Pet Bestiary includes the innovative Prismatic Palette. This system completely transforms pet dyeing. Instead of consuming dye items, you unlock dyes permanently once collected. Access the Prismatic Palette from any pet to apply any unlocked dye an unlimited number of times, to any pet you desire. You can even randomize dyes or apply them to all currently equipped pets with ease.

Seamless Integration and Safety

Pet Bestiary is designed for compatibility, attempting to automatically detect and integrate pets from other tModLoader mods. While some modded pets may have limited preview or unlock information, the mod strives for broad support. Crucially, Pet Bestiary utilizes a virtual pet system, ensuring that your pet and dye items are never consumed, stored, or lost, providing peace of mind alongside enhanced functionality.
