How to tame your Dragon
The legit way
1) Wait for the dragon to land
The Dragon will land on its own if it has been flying for too long.
The Dragon will fly really close to the ground when it hunts a prey.
The Dragon will try to hunt a prey 4 times more often than it tries to land.
You can see the list of items the Dragon consider as food in the mod options.

2) Ride the Dragon
When the Dragon is close to you, you need to hop on his back.
You can do that using the same key you usually use to enter a vehicle (default E) while looking at the center of his body.

3) Tame the Dragon
While on his back, the Dragon will fly in a direction to try to unseat you.
You have to press the direction key (W/A/S/D) to make it go in the opposite direction (and cancel its movement).
You need to hold that key (and only that key) down until it stops completely.
Then the Dragon will roar and change direction, so you need to adapt the key you press to that new direction.
Do that 5 times in row without being dismounted and it will be tamed.

The fast way
1) Get closer to the Dragon
There is various ways to achieve that:
If you hold some Dragon food in your hand and the Dragon can see it, it will come to eat it.
If you cannot find food on the workshop, there is a Meat Bone in the Dragons spawn menu.
The more you feed the dragon, the more time you will get to react between two direction change.
Change the mod options to make the Dragon fly lower to the ground and/or at slower speed.
Use a jetpack mod to fly up to the Dragon.
Use some mod that slow down time to easily catch up to it in the air.
Use some mod to slow down the Dragon itself like the Singularity in Deceleration mode.

2) Ride the Dragon
Same as the legit way.

3) Tame the Dragon
The option "Show Dragon intent when riding" is now enabled by default.
When this option is active the direction the Dragon is flying will light green in the key menu on the right.
So you need to hold down the key in the opposite direction.
Then same as the legit way.

The cheaty way
To skip the taming minigame, go to the mod options and type:tamethedragon

@WASTED: Are you sure you are pressing the key to make it go in the opposite direction and only that key? And you holding that key pressed?

what does it mean to counter its movements

Geneosis  [developer] 26 Mar, 2023 @ 11:36am 
@beastred2g: It means you have to press the key to make it go in the opposite direction of where it wants to go on its own :) So for example if you Dragon is trying to fly left you have to hold down the key to make it go right.

How do I summon a small creature?

Geneosis  [developer] 27 Mar, 2023 @ 12:13pm 
@Duelist9: You mean the food ones? Just get one of the mods that adds them (like fish or frogs) and they will appear somewhere in your Spawn menu :) You can also enable those mods to have them spawn automatically all around the map so your Dragon always have something to feed on when it gets hungry ;)

@thecybar: Have you tried ti again after the latest updates? Taming it should be pretty easy now, you can make the Dragon come to you with some food, and even make the minigame easier if you keep feeding it ^^

You can also just find dragon/scripts/dragon_controller.lua and CTRL + F "DragonController.checkSpawnAllowed()" and delete that line.

in scripts/ui.lua find a comment that says "If tamed type was unlocked, add it to the list"
and replace the text under it with this:

if #dragonTypes == 2 then
dragonTypes[#dragonTypes+1] = "tamed"
end

Now you don't have to mess with the minigame and you can enjoy the tamed ones without having to deal with the game crashing when attempting to ride a dragon.

Well that's the hacky way to do it for sure ^^
But it only works in your local copy of the mod so it won't get updated if the main mod gets an update.
And even simpler hack is to just call regSetBool('dragon.manualSpawnAllowed', true) in some init function ;)

I did this because as I said in my previous comment, my game crashes when trying to ride one. Tuxedo doesn't know how to implement vehicles. The game is a freaking buggy piece of ♥♥♥♥ that wasn't worth the $8 I paid for it, let alone THIRTY. I wish I could boot them scammers off the platform. The game doesn't crash now that I made a script that kills all vehicles on a map when it loads.
