About Seaworthy Boats

From Modrinth

⛵ Reinforce boats into faster, tougher tiers from copper to netherite, and repair them with planks at a shipyard.

A Serilum Mod. Made with love. Lots of active mods for Fabric, Forge and Neo!

About the mod

Seaworthy Boats adds the ability to upgrade boats tiers via the Shipyard block, ranging from copper to netherite. Boats have health and armour now, and can be repaired. Each tier improves the amount of armour, and the speed of the boat.

The speed and armour of each tier can be set to your preference via the config.

Configurable

Configuration guide

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All available config options:

Show Spoiler

disablePlayerBoatDamage&nbsp;&nbsp;default true
Whether a player's own hits deal no damage to boats. When on, hitting a boat tells you to sneak and right-click empty-handed to pick it up instead. Mobs and other sources still damage boats.

showBoatHealthBar&nbsp;&nbsp;default true
Whether to show the boat's health as a row of hearts on the HUD while riding it, like a horse's health. Hides the hunger bar while in a boat, the same way vanilla mounts do.

boatMaxHealth&nbsp;&nbsp;default 20, min 1, max 1000
The amount of health a boat has before it breaks. Each point of incoming damage lowers it by one (a trident hit deals around 8). Vanilla boats break after about 4 damage.

healthPerPlank&nbsp;&nbsp;default 2, min 1, max 100
How much boat health a single plank restores when repairing at a shipyard in repair mode.

shipyardRange&nbsp;&nbsp;default 4, min 1, max 16
How close a boat must be to a shipyard block for it to be repaired or upgraded there, in blocks.

shipyardInfoYOffset&nbsp;&nbsp;default 8, min 0, max 1000
How far down from the top of the screen, in pixels, the shipyard info panel is drawn when you look at a shipyard. Increase it to move the panel below other mods' block tooltips, such as Jade or WAILA.

sequentialUpgrades&nbsp;&nbsp;default true
Whether a boat must be reinforced one tier at a time, in order: copper, gold, iron, diamond, netherite. When off, a boat can be upgraded straight to any higher tier with the matching material.

materialsPerUpgrade&nbsp;&nbsp;default 8, min 1, max 64
How many of a material it costs to reinforce a boat to its tier. Reinforce a boat at a shipyard set to upgrade mode. Netherite reinforcement costs half this amount.

copperArmour&nbsp;&nbsp;default 0.07, min 0, max 1.0
How much incoming damage a copper-reinforced boat ignores. 0.0 is no protection, 1.0 is full immunity.

goldArmour&nbsp;&nbsp;default 0.10, min 0, max 1.0
How much incoming damage a gold-reinforced boat ignores. 0.0 is no protection, 1.0 is full immunity.

ironArmour&nbsp;&nbsp;default 0.25, min 0, max 1.0
How much incoming damage an iron-reinforced boat ignores. 0.0 is no protection, 1.0 is full immunity.

diamondArmour&nbsp;&nbsp;default 0.40, min 0, max 1.0
How much incoming damage a diamond-reinforced boat ignores. 0.0 is no protection, 1.0 is full immunity.

netheriteArmour&nbsp;&nbsp;default 0.80, min 0, max 1.0
How much incoming damage a netherite-reinforced boat ignores. 0.0 is no protection, 1.0 is full immunity.
