Boat Break Fix Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if the Boat Break Fix Mod is actually working?
Drop from a height that would normally shatter your boat and check whether you land intact instead of taking fall damage. If the boat survives and you keep riding it, the fix is active.
Do I need to enable anything in the config for the mod to work?
No setup is required — the fix applies automatically once the mod is loaded. Just install it and boats will stop breaking on landing.
Why does my boat still break when I land after installing the mod?
Make sure the mod is actually loaded on both the client and the server, since boat behavior is handled server-side. If another mod overrides boat landing logic, it can cancel out this fix.
Does this mod work in worlds with unlimited or extended height limits?
Yes, the fix works regardless of how tall the world is, including unlimited height setups. You can fall from any height and the boat won't break on landing.
Can I use boats as elevators or drop chutes without taking fall damage?
Yes — with the mod installed, you can ride a boat straight down from a high drop and land safely without the boat breaking or you taking fall damage. This makes boats usable as reliable vertical transport.
Will this mod reduce lag on my server if I have lots of boats?
Yes, the mod cuts down the code running on each boat tick, so servers with many boats see less processing overhead. It's a performance improvement on top of the bug fix.
Is Boat Break Fix Mod compatible with other boat or physics mods?
It generally works alongside most mods, but mods that rewrite boat landing or fall damage behavior may conflict. If boats still break, test with those mods removed to isolate the cause.
Does the mod work on multiplayer servers, or only singleplayer?
It works on multiplayer as long as the server has the mod installed, since landing behavior is server-authoritative. Clients without it may still see visual glitches, so install it on both sides.
Do I still take fall damage if I'm not in the boat when it lands?
The mod only prevents the boat from breaking and the associated fall damage when you're riding it. If you jump out mid-air, normal fall damage rules apply to you.
Does the mod change boat speed or how boats move?
No, it only fixes the breaking-on-landing bug and improves tick performance. Boat speed and handling stay the same as vanilla.
