Float Blocks

by ilovapples

Float Blocks lets a command place blocks off the grid, in positions that ordinary blocks cannot occupy, with hitboxes that move freely.

What it does

Command-controlled blocks can be placed at off-grid positions, where collision that normally stops walking no longer applies. Functions handle the placement, and the mod adds spawn eggs that summon these blocks, which mobs can then interact with. Slabs can be placed half a block higher or lower than normal. The server must run the mod, and players may add it on their side too. Files exist for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 1.19 – 1.19.3, under the MIT License, and the code is open source.

Key features

  1. Off-grid block placement

    Blocks can be set at positions off the normal grid, with collision and hitboxes adjusted to match.

  2. Command control

    Commands and functions place, move and remove the floating blocks, including applying a glowing effect to shulkers.

  3. Half-block slabs

    Slabs can be positioned half a block higher or lower than the standard placement.
