Core QoL (Quality of Life)
Core QoL bundles small player conveniences into one NeoForge mod for 1.21.1, covering crops, leaves, glass, concrete and a few crafting tweaks.
What it does
Right-clicking a crop such as cocoa beans or beetroot with a hoe harvests it and replants it at once. Pumpkins and melons are left out of this. A hoe can also be swept across grass or flowers to clear a three-by-three patch in one action, and farmland no longer breaks when a player jumps or steps on it. Nether wart can be harvested with a hoe by right-clicking, and the Fortune enchantment applies to that harvest.
Once the trunk of a tree is removed, its leaves disappear much faster. Glass blocks are recovered when they are broken with the glass cutter, which the mod adds as a recipe item, and the same tool supports a diagonal stick recipe. Concrete powder held over a water cauldron and right-clicked becomes concrete immediately. The author describes the mod as focused on reducing session time with essential quality-of-life changes.
Core QoL is released under All rights reserved. Files exist for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, and the latest build is 1.2.1, published 2026-03-21. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.
