Adding your own swords:
Out of the box wolves will use every vanilla sword and almost every modded one, so most people never need to touch this. If a sword from another mod is being ignored, you can add it yourself with a datapack.
Make this folder inside your world:
Put a pack.mcmeta in it:
{
"pack": { "pack_format": 15, "description": "Extra wolf swords" }
}
Then create data/wolfswordmod/tags/items/swords.json inside that same folder and list the items you want, using the id shown by pressing F3+H in game:
{
"replace": false,
"values": [
"somemod:ruby_sword",
"othermod:cursed_blade"
]
}
Keep "replace": false so your list is added to the built-in one instead of wiping it. Reload with /reload or by rejoining the world.
To stop wolves using a sword, use the same setup but name the file swords_excluded.json instead. Exclusions win over everything, so this is how you ban a weapon that the mod picks up automatically. A wolf already carrying a sword you just banned will drop it on the ground.
