Boat Tweaks for Minecraft

Review Boat Tweaks

Boat Settings

Any vehicle is of significant help for the player in Minecraft, since the cubic world is almost boundless, and if you need to cover a large distance or the player is just exploring different location types, then you just can’t do without boats, horses, and Elytras. However, the standard Minecraft boats are, unfortunately, incredibly slow, and if the player wants to use this type of vehicle on the ice, they may even get stuck somewhere. Although many large projects create unique types of underground trains in the Nether, and often it’s boats that move along the rails.

In this article, we’ll tell you about the Boat Tweaks mod, which adds many interesting mechanics, upgrades, and settings for boats in Minecraft. From now on, you’ll be able to fine-tune the configuration of speed, wall impacts, turning power, sliding, and other just equally important game parameters. If you often use boats, be sure to add the Boat Tweaks mod to your assembly, since it brings in so many new options. The tool isn’t yet particularly popular among users, but it’s quite possible that it will become an outstanding product in the future, since it already contains so many important changes, features, and mechanics.

In a word, Boat Tweaks adds many new improvements to Minecraft, which enhance the boat driving quality and maneuverability, so you can feel comfortable when moving at any speed, don’t crash into every corner or invisible textures; you can fine-tune the speed parameters, impact loss, sliding, and many other parameters that are extremely important in this kind of add-ons. Unlike before, when you bumped into and slowed down on different blocks in the vanilla version of the game, you won’t have such problems after installing the Boat Tweaks mod.

From now on, many players will be able to fully enjoy racing and comfortable control over the boat, whether in the boundless ocean, the sea, a small river, or the Ice biome. Currently, the following options are available in this mod:

· Configuring the turning power of the boat in the air and in other cases;

· Configuring the speed loss when hitting the walls (a very important option that allows you to restore momentum quicker after a collision);

· Configuring the sliding of the blocks (but this parameter is applicable to boats only);

· The opportunity to enable or disable collisions with other boats (for example, what will the objects do if you accidentally collide with another vehicle);

· Parameters for deleting unused boats. Do you want to optimize the game world or just delete the vehicles unused by the players? Use this parameter in the game;

· The opportunity to increase the boat speed using purple glazed terracotta;

· Adding the «jumping» effect for boats using yellow glazed terracotta;

· Prohibition to jump out of boats at high speed. This option is very useful if the player accidentally presses the wrong key while moving in the boat;

· Separate control of each boat. This is a kind of flexible customization of each item in game.

There are many opportunities, as well as various boat settings. Minecraft definitely lacked such functions, and the developer of Boat Tweaks solved this problem with his tool. Once again, we remind you that now you can further increase the boat speed if you pass over purple blocks of glazed terracotta. When you use yellow terracotta, jumping effects are activated. By using such blocks, you can develop full-fledged maps with racing tracks, arranging numerous races between players.

With the screenshots, we tried to show how the system works using terracotta, but you’d better test and try it yourself than look at dozens of pictures. All the emotions you’ll feel after installing the mod are hard to convey. Another important feature is disbarking from the boats. Unlike before when you could fly out of the vehicle at any time by accidentally pressing a wrong key, now you need to hold it for a few seconds, and the boat must have a minimum speed at the same time, otherwise the system will block this option.

On the developer’s official page, there’s a trailer, where he showed how to use all the functions available in Boat Tweaks. You can create large-scale maps with races where you’ll need to pass different levels, jump off trampolines, move in space, and take sharp turns at high speed. In general, there are many development options, and here it’s up to each player to decide how to use all the features of this tool. Just keep in mind: for this mod to work smoothly you should install it both on the client’s side and on the server’s side, otherwise it’ll fail to perform its functions.
