---=== END MESSAGE ===---

Alive | Dynamic Dirt & Physics is a minecraft mod that is a component of the Alive Modding Ecosystem.

It adds a multitude of features, including the base dynamic block decay chains for Alive | Advanced Block Decay (coming soon)

As you play your game, you will begin to notice the natural features of your world will begin to change. Over time your world will begin to look aged, with stone becoming cobblestone, growing moss, and then slowly decaying to dirt.

Everything natural in your world decays like this. Stone, dirt, sand, and gravel. Everything will always decay back into its most basic form. Dirt. This decay is largely anchored to the world's surface, however elements below the surface in the ground or ocean decay as well, just more slowly.

After a while, you may be mining in a cave when you accidentally drop a heavy item, and suddenly the floor will collapse underneath you!

Mod features:

  • Standard decay chains for all natural earth blocks (dirt, stone, sand, etc)

  • Block collapse physics (causes blocks to collapse when supported unstably (one block thick))

  • Dynamic triggers for block collapse (e.g. dropping an item on unstable ground)

    More coming soon.
