Climbable Powder Snow
Climbable Powder Snow lets players climb powder snow the way they climb ladders and scaffolding, which makes mountain terrain easier to traverse.
What it does
Powder snow becomes climbable through a block tag, so players can ascend it by holding the jump key and descend by holding sneak. Holding still inside the snow works as it does on a ladder, and players can stop there without sinking. Climbing still happens on the snow itself, so the snow's usual slowing and freezing effects are kept as the mod leaves them.
Key features
Climbing powder snow
Powder snow is treated as a climbable block, so players can move up and down it like a ladder.
Jump and sneak controls
Holding jump moves a player up through powder snow and holding sneak moves them down.
Standing still on snow
A player can stay in place inside powder snow without sinking, matching the behavior on ladders.
