Passable Foliage FAQ

Just install Passable Foliage and leaves become non-solid by default, so you can walk straight through them without breaking anything. If a specific leaf type still blocks you, check the configuration to make sure it is included in the passable list.

It covers vanilla leaves and most foliage blocks like bushes and tall grass, and many modded leaves are supported too. Which blocks are passable is controlled by the config, so you can add or remove entries if something is not behaving how you want.

The most common cause is that the block you are testing is not in the passable list, or another mod is overriding collision for that block. Open the config and confirm the block is included, then check for conflicting mods that also change leaf collision.

Yes, mobs and animals treat passable foliage the same way players do, so they can path through leaves instead of getting stuck. This makes forests feel more natural for AI movement, though it can also let hostile mobs reach you through what used to be a wall of leaves.

It only changes collision, not light levels or spawn rules, so leaf blocks still block light and spawn behavior the same as before. If you want leaves to stop blocking light, that is a separate change you would need from another mod or config option.

Yes, since you can walk through leaves without breaking them, a leaf wall or hedge makes a natural hidden doorway. Pair it with the config to keep certain blocks solid so your entrance stays concealed from the outside.

Edit the mod's config file to add or remove block entries from the passable list, then reload or restart the game. You can restrict passability to just leaves, or extend it to bushes and other foliage depending on your pack.

It generally works alongside mods that add new leaf or foliage blocks, as long as those blocks are registered in a compatible way. Conflicts usually show up as a block staying solid or becoming passable unexpectedly, which you can fix by adjusting the config list.

The mod is lightweight because it only changes collision behavior rather than adding new rendering or world generation. Any performance impact is negligible compared to the base game, even in dense forests.

You cannot target biomes directly, but you can control passability per block type through the config. If you want leaves solid in a particular area, use a different leaf block there or remove that block from the passable list.
