Description in text form

Pigeon

Friendly creature, that can be found in mountain areas or near a village

  • Likes seeds of various kind, and will happily follow someone if they have some
  • Hunted by Wild Cats, Ocelots and Foxes

Pigeonhole

A cozy house for pigeons to rest inside of, and leave their, ehm... “byproducts”

Letter

Good alternative to a book, if you don’t have much to say
Just keep it away from foxes...

Package

Slightly inconvenient (but pretty cheap) way to reduce inventory clutter
Convenient for deliveries, though

Sealing

A way to ensure an author and integrity of a Letter or Package

Mailbox

Entrypoint into the fascinating world of mail delivery
  • Every Mailbox in the overworld must have an address
  • Connecting a Mailbox to the mail network costs 3 experience levels
  • Stores received mail
  • Allows sending mail

Address Tag

  • Use the item to open Address Selection GUI

    • All available addresses are shown
  • Use on a mailable item in GUI to set the recipient
  • Can be used on a Mailbox to change its address

Delivery

When mail and seeds are inserted into a Mailbox, its front hatch will open, allowing nearby Pigeons to pick mail up and start a delivery
  • Pigeons can deliver mail (and return to) unloaded chunks without issues
  • Delivering Pigeons ascend high above the clouds to make traveling long distances more efficient, thus they can only be seen while nearby a Mailbox

Payback Tag

  • Used on a mailable item to set the requested payback
  • Anything that fits in the Package can be requested

Allows for a safe trade of items:

  • Transaction will be handled by Mail Service
  • Buyer receives Payback Box for the payment
  • Mail will be kept in storage untill the buyer pays for it
  • If buyer does not pay in time - mail will be returned back to sender

Services

Virtual addresses that can receive mail and perform various actions
  • Includes mail crafting system and recipes
  • Extendable by datapacks, addons or KubeJS scripts

Charred Pigeon

Hostile mob found in the Nether - Has 1 in 5 chance to spawn carrying a Package - Will transform back into a regular Pigeon when brought into the overworld

Collapsed Mail Hub

Structure floating above clouds

Dovecote

Small structure built to house pigeons - Plains, Taiga, Savanna and Desert variants
