About this Mod

In Minecraft, all items float, yes, even that 21 ton gold block will float. This mod changes that, now, some items float, some don't, and everything in-between!

Buoyancy Types

There are a few forms of buoyancy that can be seen in the game, they are shown here from most buoyant to least.

  • Super Buoyant (think items that contain air, like a glass bottle)
  • Buoyant (things that naturally float, such as wood)
  • Neutral (Fall at a normal speed but don't come back up, this applies to all objects that aren't already under a tag, such as Bricks)
  • Dense (These items fall at faster speeds and certainly don't come back, such as gold blocks)
  • Super Dense (These items fall very quickly, such as bedrock and other unobtainables)

If you'd like to see a modded item changed from Neutral buoyancy or a Vanilla item changed from it's current buoyancy, you're free to either modify it using a Datapack or make a Pull Request.

Frequently Asked Questions

Buoyant server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.19.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Buoyant compatible with fabric?

Buoyant officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.19.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Buoyant – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Buoyant consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
