NUB's QoL Mods
by NUB31
NUB's QoL Mods bundles small quality-of-life changes to vanilla Minecraft, covering combat targeting, elytra takeoff, and crop harvesting.
What it does
Hits land on mobs past soft plants like grass, tall grass, sugarcane and flowers, since those blocks do not stop an attack. This is most useful in biomes with dense vegetation and around sugarcane farms.
Elytra takeoff is simplified: a player right-clicks while holding a firework rocket to launch, which removes the need to double-tap the jump key to start flying. Pumpkin and melon stems are protected from being destroyed when the player holds an axe, which helps manual pumpkin and melon farming keep stems from being broken during harvest.
The mod is a Fabric client mod released under the MIT License, and it is open source. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu is optional. It has files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 and the latest is an rc-1.0.18 beta for 1.21.4.
Key features
Target through plants
Attacks pass through non-solid blocks like grass, flowers and sugarcane to reach mobs behind them.
Rocket elytra launch
Right-clicking with a firework rocket starts an elytra flight without a double jump.
Protected pumpkin and melon stems
Stems are not destroyed when the player holds an axe during harvesting.

Use cases
Sugarcane and dense-plant farms
Attacks reach mobs hidden behind sugarcane and tall vegetation in farm areas.
Manual pumpkin and melon farms
Players harvesting by hand keep stems intact, so the crop regrows.
Who it’s for: Players who want small vanilla adjustments for combat, flight and farming, and server owners who want a client-side change without server installation.
How it compares
QOL Commands is a server-side Fabric mod for 1.21.8 under the MIT License and is not open source, so it adds server commands rather than client changes. ShadeMC-QoL is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.1, under the MIT License, and is not open source. Client Side QoL Fabric is also client-side and open source under the MIT License, but it targets 1.18.2 only.
