Peeling Moss
by ByzikZMC
Peeling Moss lets players scrape moss off mossy blocks with a new knife, a tool that also prepares stone for planting moss again.
What it does
Players use the knife to remove moss from mossy cobblestone, stone bricks and similar blocks, which gives them a logical way to gather moss and interact with blocks. The mod is lightweight and keeps the vanilla feel, so it suits players who want a clean original look rather than large additions.
After moss is scraped, the block stays damaged. The mod includes a repair route: the scraped block can be patched up with cobblestone rubble to restore its original appearance. A player who has gathered too much moss can also plant it back on compatible blocks to recover the weathered look. The mod is published for NeoForge only, with builds covering 1.21.1 – 26.1.2, and it runs on client and server.
