Controling Saddled Pigs

Very true, very true.

I think this would be cool. But saddles are rather rare and are very limited. Is there a way to add a thing where saddles can be made from leather?

pretty sure spout is necessary for custom items, but I don't know if that applies to recipes and pre-existing items.

We have discussed this before and it's a great idea. But it's not possible. The Minecraft client does not send key presses to the server so it would require client side mods such as Spout.

what if they use the exact same phisics as boats only they can jump and are on land and have pig health

Boats are controlled entirely by the client though.

so in theory you could have an uber-haxor battleship client

The client sends rotation, velocity etc to the server and the server does the movement calculations from that. That's why boats have pretty bad handling in SMP. And NoCheat checks if your boat goes too fast and eats you. So no uber-haxor battleship clients.

Better idea, have people work as taxis - sit on a pig and have somebody constantly lure the pig with wheat.

Unfortunately, saddled pigs are too sad from being forced to wear a saddle and be ridden by players to respond to the smell of wheat.
