About this Mod

Place on Path (PoP)

Tired of your dirt/grass paths turning back into plain dirt the moment you place a fence, lantern or flower on them? Place on Path fixes exactly that.

Place any block on a path and the path stays - it's swapped for a seamless full‑height version, so there's no ugly gap to the block on top. Remove the block and it turns back into a normal path.

Features

  • Place any block on dirt/grass paths without them turning to dirt
  • No gap - the path becomes full‑height under the block and reverts when the block is removed
  • Place plants, flowers, saplings and doors on paths too
  • In‑game config screen (Mods menu): every block is green (keeps the path) by default - click a block to turn it red, and that block will turn the path to dirt instead. Toggle whole categories or single blocks, with a search bar.
  • Lightweight and server‑friendly
