Changes: Dolphins

Revision as of 06:29, 31 July 2012

New in 2.8 are Dolphins, the horse of the sea. Dolphins can be tamed and bred similarly to horses. Dolphins do not require a saddle to be ridden.

Food

Currently (2.8) there is only one food that can reduce their temper

Food	Effect
Fish	-25 temper (To a minimum of 1)

Types of Dolphin

There are currently (V2.8) 6 different types of dolphin with different speeds, temperaments, and chance to spawn in the wild. ====

All dolphins have 30 health

Breed/color	Speed	Temper	SpawnChance
Blue	1.5	50	36%
Green	2.5	100	25%
Purple	3.5	150	25%
Dark	4.5	200	11%
Pink	5.5	250	2%
Albino	6.5	300	1%

Breeding

Dolphin breeding works rather differently than horse breeding.

To breed dolphins you will require:

2 cooked fish
2 dolphins
(assumed)A place where they are within 4 squares of each other and 8 squares minimum away from you and other dolphins
(assumed)5 minutes or half a Minecraft day

To breed dolphins you must give each a cooked fish. Unlike horses dolphins cannot become sterile and may breed indefinitely.After 5 minutes there will be a 3rd dolphin.If the two dolphins are of the same breed they will always have a baby of that breed, otherwise their Total Genetic Value (TGV) determines both the chance of getting a certain breed and which breed will be gotten.

If their TGV is less than 5 and they are of different breeds there is a 1/3 chance of breeding a dolphin whose genetic value is equal to the TGV. If TGV is 5 or 6 and they are of different breeds there is a 1/10 chance of breeding a dolphin whose genetic value is equal to the TGV. If the breed is not determined in this manner it will be dertermined as for spawning a wild dolphin.

Dolphin	Genetic Value
Blue	1
Green	2
Dark	3
Purple	4
Pink	5
Albino	6
