About this Mod
Vent block mod
Update: this mod was specifically made to make vertical item transportation easy but since BTA 7.3 we now have an official way of doing exactly that using the new Reinforced Piston block!
Requires HalbLibe => 3.5.4
A small minecraft BTA mod that adds a vent block for mob/item transportation.
Specifically made for Minecraft Better Than Adventure 7.1_01.
This new block can be used for lots of different contraptions and builds. The vent block propels entities upwards for a total of 8 blocks.
Sneak while walking above a vent block will result in you falling down again and ignoring fall damage!

Vent Block server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with Vent Block – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Vent Block 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.
