Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

This mod is for Forge. The official Fabric version is available here. Please note that the Forge version is a port so it may differ from the Fabric version.

This mod adds one thing to the game; The ability to knock on doors and trapdoors.

This can really improve immersion for role playing users and can also just be a nice thing to have when playing with friends!

Any help with these issues via PR would be extremely welcome. ❤

- Can be spammed (needs a cooldown) - Status: In Progress
- Occurs at the end of breaking a door (Either the cooldown or a change in the event type would fix this issue)
- Occurs when breaking a door (maybe only activate if the button has been held down for less than a certain period of time)
