All-natural horse enhancement, adding horse genders, lineage tracking, better breeding, and powerful commands!
Horse enhancer is a Spigot/Bukkit plugin that modifies the behaviour of horses in Minecraft in order to enhance horse-related gameplay, and enable an equestrian economy. The plugin has been tested for Minecraft versions 1.12 - 1.14. Improvements include:
- Horses now have genders, and require compatible mates to procreate.
- Foal attributes use a more deterministic formula, with a configurable potential for improvement/regression over their parents' attributes.
- Configure the rate at which males spawn, increasing the desirability of stallions.
- View detailed horse information by shift-right-clicking with a clock, including parentage, attributes, and owner.
- Geld males you've tamed by shift-right-clicking with shears, ensuring control over your prized bloodlines.
- Horses track who their parents are, and inbreeding is... inadvisable.
- Disables shooting your own mount in the back of the head.

Special thanks to the following plugin authors, whose work was an invaluable resource:
- A Flying Poro, for her extensive assistance.
- AnomalyTea's Horse Inspector - From whom I drew much inspiration on how to design this plugin.
- Soiyeruda's Better Horses - Whose attribute determination formula I used in this plugin.
- The human-readable ProQuints IDs project on Arxiv; whose work was adapted for use in generating horseIDs, and whose authors I've avoided naming for fear of impinging upon their software license.
