Frequently asked questions

How do I make hay bales actually negate fall damage?

Just place hay bales at the bottom of your drop and land on them — the mod makes them cancel fall damage on contact, no configuration needed. Make sure the bale is the block you actually touch, not a block next to it.

How many hay bales deep do I need for a safe landing?

A single hay bale is enough to negate fall damage with this mod, so you don't need to stack them for safety. Stack more only if you want a thicker-looking landing pad for builds.

Does landing on hay bales work from any height?

Yes — the mod removes fall damage entirely on hay bale landing regardless of how far you fell. You can jump from build limit down to a bale and walk away fine.

Why am I still taking fall damage when I land on hay bales?

You're probably landing on the block beside or under the bale, or clipping the edge of a neighboring block on the way down. Clear the column above the bale and aim for the center of the top face.
