Hold My Cow |
The Ultimate Carry-On Experience
Hold My Cow lets you do what Mojang never dared:
pickup
mobs ,
chests ,
hoppers and
barrels
not just shulker boxes straight to your pixelated biceps.
Why spill a full chest when you can carry it?
► Key Features
Shift + Right‑Click (empty hand) = Pickup – Works on mobs and containers (chest, barrel, hopper, yes, shulker too ).
Plugin Integrations – Respects WorldGuard , Lands , GriefPrevention and Lootin protections.
Double‑Chest Freedom – Grab both chests together or split them and place anywhere.
Persistent Containers – All contents are saved using SQLite, MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL.
Multi‑Lingual – Languages included: EN , ES , ZH , DE , PL , FR , KO , JA , VI , TR , PT-BR
Optional Player Pickup – Toggle allow_player_pickup to bench‑press your friends (Server restart needed).
Weight‑Based Slowness – Bigger mob → bigger slowdown.
► How It Works
Sneak (shift)
Empty hands
Right‑click a mob or container
Strut away
Right‑click air to place (double chests can be placed together or separately)
Spoiler: How weight works
Weight is based on
maxHealth * 2 ,
and the slowness level is based on
maxHealth * 2 / 20
Example: A Warden is 1000Kg (500❤ × 2) and a Cow is 20Kg (10❤ × 2). If max_weight is 100, you can carry the Cow but not the Warden — and you’ll be slowed by 1 level.
► Configuration
Code (YAML):
settings :
max_weight
: 100.0
# How heavy before legs give out?
allow_player_pickup
: false
# Turn friends into kettle‑bells?
allow_lootin_pickup
: false
# Ignore Lootin‑protected chests?

WorldGuard Integration:
Implemented two custom flags: holdmycow-containers and holdmycow-entities .
These flags are set to DENY by default. To enable HoldMyCow features in WorldGuard regions:
For protected regions: Set the corresponding flag to ALLOW and ensure the user is a member of the region.
For the __global__ region: Set the flag to ALLOW ; no membership is required.
