Thinking about it, technically weight shouldn't affect how fast it's accelerated(edited)
I know we aren't bound to physics, but I think it'd be best if 'amount of gravitite' was what was in charge of floating speed, rather than weight. That would make more sense to me as a player, too(edited)
Otherwise what we describe as 'heavy' might seem arbitrary
For example, are doors heavy or light? They're thin wood, which is light, but they're also two blocks. So our decision might not match a player's intuition
cr24Team00:13
I think all blocks should be the same besides a few that reasonably make sense
in the case of float speed and related I think coming from a game design perspective is better
wool makes a little bit of logical sense to float slowly imo
Jack PapelTeam00:14
Oh that's a good point(edited)
Since it can get slowed by the air
AzzyypaarasTeam00:28
Talking about floating and gravitite, I just thought about something, a little side-mechanic
Mobs wearing gravitite armor should be immune to the effects of gravitite tools
It would make sense that the armor's own gravity controlling abilities would override external ones, or at least neutralize them

base it on hardness smh
or a function of hardness and strength/mining level
AzzyypaarasTeam02:00
Replying toPlatymemobase it on hardness smh
Nah, all blocks float at the same speed save for you're mom which floats at half because she is so dense 😎

@gudenau I opened a PR to MoreTags to add a farmland tag. Check it out if you have the time(edited)
gudenau03:59
The whitespace isn't the same.
Also your getAvailableMoiture mixin changes how crops work a bit.
Jack PapelTeam04:00
It should keep it the same for normal farmland
I just moved things around a bit(edited)
gudenau04:01
Should still be able to be done better.
Jack PapelTeam04:02
Alright, I'll make some changes so that it looks more similar to the original code
gudenau04:09
There are also some other minor implementation issues that would make it so the tags don't work quite right, like you can't remove some of the farmland interactions with yours.
Jack PapelTeam04:09
What do you mean by "remove some of the farmland interactions"?(edited)
gudenau04:13
Like if you make a datapack that doesn't have farmland as farmland your mixins still allow it to function as farmland.
Jack PapelTeam04:14
Yes. Would you prefer that not be the case?
gudenau04:14
The villager thing is annoying though, because it assumes all of the blocks will be the same.
Yeah, that's part of the point of this.
Jack PapelTeam04:15
I see
gudenau04:21
Anyway.
Oh, this is an interesting issue.
If you add a block that doesn't have the moisture property things break.
Jack PapelTeam04:28
Hm, I set it such that that wouldn't happen
It should just act as if it has full moisture
gudenau04:29
Oh yeah you checked that, I also added a second tag for that.
Jack PapelTeam04:29
Ah Ok

Stone is pulling a lot of weight in that datapack lol
gudenau04:38
Everyone knows exactly what stone does, so it's easy to demo things being weird with it.
Jack PapelTeam04:40
Awesome, thanks. I'll put the new release into the Aether
gudenau04:41
Yeah I'll get it published in a few, I'll go run the maven upload.
Jack PapelTeam04:41
👍 Thanks for all the help
gudenau04:42
No problem.
It's a lib, the more features to get more users the better it is. Network effects are fun.
gudenau06:08
Tada.

I'm really struggling with this elevator, I have a working build, but sometimes it kills the player on the way down
I have no idea why that happens, I assumed they wouldn't take fall damage on the levitator on the way down, and sometimes they dont
Manxy!~ 🐾14:17
Noted, slime and honey blocks do not stick to the levitator blocks when in motion. Makes sense, that'd take a lot of work wouldn't it x3(edited)
Manxy!~ 🐾14:29
oh but it does appear to bounce off of it.. which is unexpected, must be a Java Edition feature, neat
landing on honey blocks breaks it.
Manxy!~ 🐾14:38
it doesnt force me into crawl mode like expected, it shoves me under the block instead

@Jack Papel hey
Jack PapelTeam17:11
Sounds like a plan

Most of them have been in since pretty much the beginning of the project
ColdFlame5317:15

Replying toJack PapelAwesome, thanks. I'll put the new release into the Aether
Make sure CF has this listed as an embedded library. :-P https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/more-tags
Jack PapelTeam23:38
Replying toAzzyypaaras@Jack Papel hey
It looks beautiful
I got it working
There's just an annoying delay bug which I'll fix up real quick
But it's marvelous
