How to Test State Transitions and Synchronized Riding

This pack replaces abrupt vanilla posture changes with smooth transitions between states and synchronizes player movement with mounts. You can test that these mechanics are working properly using common tamable mobs.

Testing Smooth State Transitions

1. Locate a wild Wolf and tame it using bones.

2. Interact with the tamed Wolf to command it to sit, then interact again to make it stand.

3. Watch the posture change closely. Instead of snapping instantly between sitting and standing frames, the Wolf will play a continuous, smooth transition animation in both directions.

4. You can also observe state transitions by watching supported mobs—such as Villagers or Tamed Wolves—enter or exit their sleeping and idle states.

Testing Horse and Player Sync

1. Find a Horse, Donkey, Mule, Skeleton Horse, or Zombie Horse.

2. Tame the mount if required and equip it with a saddle.

3. Mount the animal and switch your camera to third-person view so both your character and the mount are clearly visible.

4. Walk, trot, and gallop across terrain.

5. Observe how your player character moves in rhythm with the mount's new base stance, idle motion, and walking animations, keeping the rider visually synced with the animal underneath.
