Boat Behavior Tweaks
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.2–1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
I made this mod with a lot of help from the Minecraft Modding Discord and the Forge Discord.
This mod changes Boats in 2 ways:
- Boats no longer gain super speed on ice blocks; instead they act like they were going over any other block.
- Boats regain the ability to float up when under still water.
Either of these options can be turned off in the configs
