PiggyPilot
Flying pigs - fiction... or fact?
Yes ladies and gentlemen, the time has come! I bet you never thought you would see the day when... pigs CAN fly! Yessir! This plugin allows players to saddle pigs and jump on 'em for a ride!
v1.4.6 - Released!
PiggyPilot is back and better then ever! After a few minor tweaks, and some code cleaning up Piggy Pilot is back! As requested the only major change has been that the regulate fishing rod to control the pig has been changed to A carrot on a stick . This allows for the pig to be more easily controlled and greater fun! Enjoy this build, expect future updates to be great!
v1.2.5 - Released
Well ladies and gentlemen, to celebrate out 200'th download - yes! 200th! I am releasing a new version of piggy pilot with a longer changelog than all previous releases!
Changelog:

- Changed all threads to "synced" tasks, so no more possiblity of world corruption (although there wasn't really one to begin with... much..)

- Prevents users from killing pig by accidently hitting it
- Better configuration layout
- Nicer code layout

History:
This plugin was originally asked to be developed for Banecraft (mc.banecraft.com), in which I developed it for. So, if you wanna show your appreciation for this plugin, jump on Banecraft and say thanks for the great plugin idea! Note: It was xXTHEPILOTXx who originally came up with this great idea! Thanks Pilot!
Hope you enjoy my flying pigs! Please leave a comment on it's success/failure!

P.S. If you have any problems, please use the ticket manager, please don't post it as a comment.
Good news! I've got a tinsy winsy bit of spare time! That means I can develop an "AA Battery" plugin - It will be a seperate plugin to PP so that if you don't want it, you don't have to install it.
-Uber
I'm sorry about this - It happens with generally whoever... I've tried to fix many a time, but it is quite hard - I will look into it further, it will probably be with the next update.
For a quick fix, if you haven't already, try changing the "flight-mode" sometimes this helps, sometimes not. I actually prefer flight mode "2" myself, although you can't look around at your surrounding enviroment while flying, you have more of a "fighter-jet" feel.

Great plugin but 50% of the time pigs start randomly spinning out of control and flying up
Hi! Thanks for adding your comment! This is a known problem, and I've been trying to fix this up!
If you are having a bit of trouble with "jittery" flight, then decrease the time between each update in the configuration - this will use more memory and CPU, but will have better flight ;)
-Uber
Awesome plugin, but the movement animation is a bit bugged during flight (the pigs won't face the direction they are traveling).
I know that this has something to do with a relatively new mob AI. Is it possible to fix this?
Thanks for the support guys! I have quite a few new ideas - but first things first, as a small glimpse into the future, I'm not leaveing it at flying pigs - I have a much broader idea.... An entire battle field scenario for example... That's right folks, here is a list of the items I've drempt up for this NEW plugin:
Flying Pigs (Already done) ICBMs Tanks Rocket launchers Submarines Cannons Rotating Turrets And more!
This plugin is going much, much, much further than the bounds of flying pigs! So stay tuned! I am going to be programming this plugin for quite a while, then gonna post it - This plugin won't stay as piggy pilot - this plugin will be piggy pilot with everything else thrown in - it will have a different name. I will put up a notice when I have the improved plugin programmed. But also note, this might take a while, and piggy pilot is my priority, so piggy pilot will keep getting new versions, but I will be looking into making the other plugin as well.
Thanks again for your support!

P.S. I would be appreciative if you could vote "Yes" in the poll!
@UberTweakstor
could you perhaps look into having the money "earned" by the pigs go to a specific player?
Thank you.
Loving this! Really neat machine gun feature too! I really want new features but at the same time I like it being fairly lightweight. =] Anyhow great work!
Glad to be your 100th download, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
Well, I think this plugin has been a success! I am going to (hopefully) release a new version with more config options and some special effects once the downloads on the latest version have reached 100.
Thanks Pilot!
Thanks for the amazing plugin boar. I'm sure just as people on Banecraft have loved it, other people will too! I know this is like... a month late post but I was so busy with all of my graphics ans stuff. Anyways, I didn't really do anything but come up with the name. Thanks to John, he has made this possible. Have fun guys! :-D
Good to see it working ;) Also, thanks for your response!
Spread the word!
Yes, it works!!!
