No Falling Underground Gravel
No Falling Underground Gravel swaps the gravel patches found while mining underground for Stony Gravel, a variant that does not fall.
What it does
Underground gravel clusters are replaced with Stony Gravel, a version that is not affected by gravity. A pickaxe or a shovel both break Stony Gravel, which yields flint at the same chance as ordinary gravel. Regular gravel can still be crafted back from Stony Gravel for players who need it. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. It is published for Forge only, with files for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 and 0.1-1.20.1 as the latest file, released under the MIT License. The source code is public.

Flint drops and crafting
Flint comes from Stony Gravel just as often as from ordinary gravel, and ordinary gravel stays craftable whenever a player needs it.
