SnPets

SnPets gives every player a squad of floating pets that follow them on an arc formation, cut from a circle or from an oval that hugs their back. The formation rotates with the owner's camera, so the pets always stay in view. Pets are drawn with packets instead of entities, so they never collide, never despawn and never wander off. The whole server shares one animation tick, so pet count adds no scheduler tasks and unequipped pets cost nothing.

A pet is more than a cosmetic. It levels up from a configurable experience source, carries a rollable trait and graded stat boosts, and grants its owner damage, resistance and speed buffs that scale with its level. Players collect pets from weighted pet boxes, fuse duplicates into stronger ones, and manage everything from seven configurable menus.

Features

Packet arc formation, circle or oval, with configurable radius, back radius, arc width, height and bob.
Levels and experience per pet type, with per-type level caps and a choice of six experience sources: vanilla XP, blocks, EdTools omnitool breaks, mobs, damage dealt or playtime. Since 1.24.0 a pet is created at level 0, so its first level is earned like every level after it.
Damage, resistance and speed buffs, each with a global cap and a per-world gate.
Rollable traits and graded stat boosts, bought with trait tickets and dice.
Fusion: combine duplicates into a stronger pet that inherits levels, traits and boosts, with a server-wide announcement you can switch on per pet.
Pet boxes with weighted tables, a per-box success chance stamped on the item, bulk opening, cooldowns and a full refund on a failed save.
Pet items: shift + right click a stored pet, or press Q over it, to take it out as a physical head carrying its whole state, and let anyone right click it back into their own storage. That is how players trade pets. Since 1.17.0 the head also remembers who took it out, and only that player can redeem it.
Scrolls (1.18.0): three consumable items an admin hands out with /pets admin givescroll, each with its own look and its own list of pets it accepts. The OWNERSHIP scroll drops onto a pet item in your own inventory and makes that head yours, which is the way out of the 1.17.0 owner lock. Since 1.19.0 the LEVEL and RARITY scrolls are applied by holding one and clicking a pet in the main menu - an equipped one or a stored one: the level scroll raises the pet by the number stamped on the stack, the rarity scroll turns it into whatever its upgrades-to names, and both are consumed one per use.
Holograms: configurable text above every pet, per pet type, drawn as packet entities that RIDE the pet, so the text and the pet can never move at different times.
Bedrock fallback (1.25.0): Geyser discards the Display entity a pet body is drawn with, so a Bedrock player is sent a client-side armor stand wearing the pet's own head texture instead, moved by the same tick and carrying the same name plate. Needs Floodgate; Java players are untouched.
Seven menus you can re-skin without touching code, with a per-player switch that decides whether that player's roll animation plays or the result appears instantly, and a per-group colour every pet template can draw with.
Equipped pets are kept in slots 1..n with no gap, so the free slots are always the last ones.

Optional integrations

PlaceholderAPI: registers the %snpets_...% expansion for scoreboards, tab and holograms. Without it the plugin runs normally and simply skips the expansion.
BetterModel: lets a pet type render as an animated model with separate idle and moving animations. Without it every pet renders as a player head, which is the built-in default.
EdTools: lets an equipped pet grant EdTools currency boosters and the global enchant multiplier, summed across every equipped pet and widened by that pet's boost grade and trait, with an optional per-pet max: ceiling on each entry. A TRAIT can grant them too, as flat percentage points that any equipped pet carrying it pays whether or not the pet declares boosters of its own. It also unlocks the EDTOOLS_BLOCK_BREAK experience source, so a pet can level from the blocks an EdTools omnitool consumes - blocks a vanilla BlockBreakEvent never sees. Without it nothing is granted, that source earns nothing, no EdTools class is ever loaded and the plugin runs normally.
