Dragon control
Controlling your dragon is simple: Look in the direction you want it to fly.
Use the sneaking key to toggle the parking brake.
Since v4.0 you can control the dragon with the arrow keys! For that to work the server needs the SpoutPlugin and the player Spoutcraft. Both is completely optional.
Since v5.0 you can let your dragon shoot a fireball with a left click while riding on it.
Dragon inventory
Since v5.0 each dragon has a inventory. To access it simply right click your dragon!
Dragon feeding
To make your dragon temporary faster right click it with a golden apple in your hand. Every apple will give +0.1 speed (max: +1.0 speed).

Thanks to Danither for making this video!
i wannet to make a yearly event on my server that you can win a ridable dragon is that possible?
@arnie2311 Or negate the permission for * with the help of the permissions plugin. Normally no need to change the plugin.yml for that.
@jwmpine
Go into the plugin with winrar and open the plugin.yml in Notepad and change the default to false then give the permission to the user you want to be able to do the commands
@Link_Lofter If you use the SpoutPlugin + Spoutcraft the dragons have different colors. So what exactly are you requesting?
You should add different colored dragons like in the animal motorbikes mod!
"1:49:45 PM [INFO] [RideThaDragon] [RideThaDragon] New Release available! 1:49:45 PM [INFO] [RideThaDragon] If you want to update from v5.1.2 to 5.1.2 use /update RideThaDragon 1:49:45 PM [INFO] [RideThaDragon] See http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/ridethadragon for more information. "
I have this plugin updated why does it keep saying this? :-/
Is there anyway to disable this message?
I'm having issues setting up permissions.
I'm using pex and when I enter in the command to give my admins the ability to change the price of dragons or remove all of them. It doesn't give it to them. right now the only way to change anything is through the console.
We really don't want everyone having access to riding dragons..
@Quilava10x Spout or not spout? If the first: try to turn with the arrow keys. If the second: Look in another direction than the dragon and press shift, if nothing happens press it again... try this a few times. Does the dragon change its direction?
still not working
@Quilava10x
Press shift
the dragon wont move at all!
Hey !
I keep getting this message when I connect : http://puu.sh/119Z9
Also, the "/update RideThaDragon" doesn't seem to work, it basically downloads this page, and not the file : http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/ridethadragon/files/23-v5-1-1/
Because I then have a "23-v5-1-1" file in my /update/ folder : http://puu.sh/11a16
@Epesni This is cause of mojang code. Earlier versions had a hackish solutions against this, but since 1.3 this solution doesn't work anymore... :(
@jorn818 That's not what RTD is for, sorry.
I dont have problem with perm but with flying, player sitting about 5 meter up the dragon
My dragon doesnt move anyway :(
(i dont have spout is that the problem?)
@V10lator Could you make it so that you can set a heigth for WILD enderdragons and they can't fly lower then the set heigth
@V10lator
Thank you, didn't think about that
@ndrqu Have you ever tried to negate the permission? Cause it defaults to true for all players.
Like others have said, there is a big problem with the permissions. Everyone gets a dragon, no matter to which group I give the ridetha.dragon permission.
