durabilityDurabilityDurability (uses). Requires a game restart to take effect.
enabledEnable Ash PoisoningIf true, players get ash poisoning near ash blocks. If false, the Ash Sensor is also fully disabled — it stops scanning and goes silent, so the feature doesn't waste server or client cycles when you've turned it off.
sensor_sound_enabledEnable Ash Sensor SoundIf true, the Ash Sensor plays its idle hum and geiger tracks while held. Set to false to silence the sensor while still letting it scan and show the level on its model. Has no effect when ash poisoning itself is disabled — the sensor is silent regardless.
fruit_spawn_chanceFruit Spawn Chance (%)Chance (%) that a mature stem will produce a fruit on each tick. 100 = same speed as vanilla melon/pumpkin, 50 = twice as slow. Lower values make the fruit appear less frequently.
guild_spawn_multiplierGuild Spawn Chance MultiplierSpawn chance multiplier for the Dragon Hunter Guild. 1.0 is default chance. Lower values = lower chance.
hunter_house_spawn_multiplierHunter House Spawn Chance MultiplierSpawn chance multiplier for the Dragon Hunter House/Camp. 1.0 is default chance. Lower values = lower chance.
blood_maxMax BloodMaximum blood items per collection
max_healthMax HealthMax HP an adult (125+ days) dragon will have. This addon also lifts the vanilla 1024 cap on max health, so values above 1024 take effect. Set to 0 to disable this override and keep Ice and Fire CE's own dragon.maxHealth value (still uncapped).
max_usesMax UsesMax blood collections within the window before cooldown

Frequently asked questions

How do I start using the pet care system?
Tame a dragon using the standard Ice and Fire method, then craft the veterinary tools (brush, syringe, and shears) to begin caring for it. Your dragon will gradually get dirty over time, and you can start bonding by feeding it dragon fruit and keeping it clean.
What's the fastest way to increase bond level with my dragon?
Feed your dragon regularly with dragon fruit and spend time near it; cleaning muddy dragons also contributes to bonding. Higher bond levels unlock special helpful effects that benefit you as the owner.
How do I get dragon scales and blood without fighting?
Use the syringe to collect blood and shears to collect scales from your tamed dragon; you'll also need painkillers to make the process painless for your pet. This lets you gather materials safely without damaging your bond or hurting the dragon.
My dragon is covered in mud—how do I clean it?
Equip the dragon brush and use it on your muddy dragon to start a mini-game where you follow on-screen prompts to wash away the dirt. Successfully completing the cleaning will restore your dragon's appearance and contribute to your bond.
How do I grow dragon fruit to feed my pets?
Plant dragon fruit seeds in dirt blocks like normal crops; they will grow over time and can be harvested for food. Plant multiple seeds in advance so you always have fruit ready to feed your hungry dragons.
What does the dragon phone do?
The dragon phone lets you track your tamed dragons on a screen, showing their name, age, and distance from your location. This is useful for finding dragons that wander away or managing multiple pets.
How do I avoid getting poisoned by toxic dragon ash?
Keep an ash sensor in your hand when traveling through burnt areas to detect toxic ash and find safe paths. If you do get poisoned, take an ash tablet to cure the effect.
Where do I find abandoned hunter camps and what are they for?
Abandoned hunter camps and old buildings are scattered throughout your world as structures to explore. They may contain loot and resources, and they add to the atmosphere of dragon hunting history in your world.
Can I use this mod with other dragon mods or does it only work with Ice and Fire?
This mod is built to expand Ice and Fire: Community Edition specifically and works with its dragons. Compatibility with other dragon mods depends on whether they use the same dragon system.
My dragon won't get dirty or I can't see the mud—is something wrong?
Dragons accumulate dirt over time naturally; if you're not seeing mud, your dragon may be very clean or you may need to wait longer. Try spending more time away from your dragon and then returning to see if the mud appears.
