Repose
by delvr
Repose lets mobs and players walk up and down gentle hills without jumping, by turning soil blocks into slope shapes.
What it does
Soil blocks take a stair-like shape that depends on the terrain height around them, so a walk up a slope no longer needs a jump at each step. Visually the blocks still look like the same full cubes they were before. Grass, sand and similar soils are covered by the change.
Gravity can also affect soils. Sand and gravel are fine-grained soils that shift sideways and build up into heaps when an adjacent block is altered or struck by a player; a config setting extends this same behavior to natural stone located in caves. Config options control the falling and spreading behavior.
Repose requires Farseek, which must be installed alongside it. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Forge 1.12.2 with 1.6.4 as the latest, under the MIT License, and the source code is public.
Key features
Walkable soil slopes
Soil blocks form stair-shaped slopes that vary with the elevation of neighboring blocks.
Full-cube appearance
Soil blocks keep the look of ordinary cubes while their collision shape changes.
Falling and spreading soil
Sand, gravel and similar soils fall, spread sideways and form piles when nearby blocks change.
Optional stone behavior
A config option applies the same behavior to natural stone found in caves.

Use cases
Hill and cave terrain
Players and mobs cross grassy hills and sandy slopes without continually jumping.
Early-game shelters
Sloped soil makes building shelters harder, since walls of sand and gravel can collapse significantly.
Who it’s for: Players who want more natural terrain movement, and server owners who want to tune how soil falls and spreads through the config options.

This mod introduces walkable soil slopes and more to Minecraft. This means you can now walk up gentle slopes of grass, sand etc. without continually jumping. This works by making soil blocks act as stairs, whose shape varies according to the elevation of neighboring blocks. Visually, the soil blocks are still the…
