Standard Boat Controls Apply

Tank Boats use identical physics and controls to vanilla wooden boats. The military aesthetic is purely visual—gameplay remains unchanged.

Piloting Your Tank

1. Right-click a boat in water to enter it

2. Use WASD to move forward, backward, and strafe

3. Use the mouse to rotate your view and turn the boat

4. Press Space to exit the boat

Water Navigation

  • Tank Boats move at normal boat speed across rivers and oceans
  • They respond to currents and water flow naturally
  • You can navigate through narrow waterways and around obstacles just like regular boats
  • Multiple players can ride together if you place multiple boats

Ice Travel

Tank Boats work on ice surfaces, allowing you to create fast transport routes across frozen terrain. The boat slides smoothly across ice with standard physics.

Tips

  • Boats are faster than swimming for long water journeys
  • You can carry items while piloting
  • Combine multiple tank boats to create a "convoy" effect for aesthetic multiplayer adventures
  • Use boats to transport mobs or items by pushing them into the boat
