Nerfs Simple Footpaths
by Nerf_Craft
Nerfs Simple Footpaths adds path blocks in many materials that players can walk on faster, and the paths drop themselves when broken.
What it does
Stone paths need a pickaxe to break, while the other materials can be removed by hand. Each broken path returns itself as an item, so builders can rearrange a route without losing blocks.
The movement boost is the main purpose of the mod: walking on a footpath is faster than on plain ground, which suits roads between houses, farms and mining areas. The textures are drawn in the vanilla style so they blend with existing builds. The author notes that the blocks may suit road building in Minecolonies, though this has not been tested.
Forge is the only loader with files, and the mod is published for 1.19 – 1.19.4, with 0.0.1 for 1.19.4 as the latest file. The environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it, and the code is released under the MIT License without being open source.
Key features

Stone and brick paths
Stone bricks, smooth stone and nether bricks can be laid as footpaths for a built-up look.
Sand-based paths

Self-dropping blocks
