Pet Bat Mechanisms

• If not fighting, will always follow and remain close to the owner.
• If owner isn't present (left server), remains where he last was.
• Tries and finds a hanging spot if it can, will not leave whatever area it is in.
• Can be startled from hanging spot by a foreign player, by attacks, by breaking the block, or by dropping pumpking pie.
• If it gets stuck and the owner runs further off, will teleport directly into owner inventory.
• Bats are not fire or lava proof, or particularly resistant to explosions.
• Levels up by dealing damage, does not require actual kills.
• Levelling up boosts max health and damage.
• Upon reaching level 3, pet bats gain a 33% life steal on attack effect.
• Upon reaching max level, pet bats gain enchantment visuals.
• Upon "death" returns as item to owner inventory and has to be fed before it can fly again.
• If owner isn't on the server when it dies, it really dies and is lost.
• Your inventory is a completely safe place, unless you happen to die.
• Ownership of a Pet Bat does not transfer with the Item bat, the tamer stays it's owner.
• A hurt pet bat can be healed by dropping pumpkin pie for feeding.
• Foreign players can also feed them pumpkin pie by dropping it nearby.
• Only freshly dropped pie counts.
• Handheld bats grant night vision, regardless of their health.
• Yes, you can pour your cruelty, your malice, and your will to dominate all life into your bat using an anvil and pumpkin pie.
• Apart from healing the bat that doesn't do much.
