About this Mod
(This mod is currently in early development. Expect widespread changes between beta versions).

Utilizing VS Mass data to expand gameplay.

As you carry heavier blocks, your movement and mining speed are reduced after reaching a threshold, encouraging smarter inventory management and more immersive gameplay. (Think Skyrim encumbrance system, highly inspired).

Furthermore, the contents of chests on VS ships now dynamically effect the weight distribution and total weight of the ship.
This mod also includes weight shifting based on player weight. Carrying more shifts the weight.
The mod also includes the Pack Mule enchantment for chestplates, which increases your carrying capacity by raising the soft cap.
