Sable: Weighted
Sable: Weighted assigns mass physics values to blocks so that blocks added by other mods behave with believable weight inside Sable-based ships and structures.
What it does
The mod sets Sable physics properties for a long list of compatible mods, covering Create, Create Aeronautics, Applied Energistics 2, Bits N Bobs, Bits N Tracks, Cable Facades, Chunk Loaders and Bells Whistles. Blocks from these mods gain weight values, so their mass is counted when they are part of a moving structure. Sable itself, Create and Create Aeronautics are required dependencies, and the mod is published for NeoForge on 1.21.1 only.
Weights are consolidated into pre-defined weight tags rather than one JSON file per block, which reduces file size and file count and removes the need for a separate BlockID entry for each block. Consistent scaling follows Create Aeronautics, except where a case should weigh more, as with heavy shipping containers from Create Deco. Thin geometry such as bars, ladders, mesh and windows is treated as light. Partial blocks like slabs, stairs, railings and overlays have their volume adjusted and need to be re-implemented for each variant. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing it, and the code is open source under The Unlicense.
Key features
Mass values for compatible blocks
Blocks from the listed mods receive Sable physics weights, so their mass is counted in moving structures.
Consolidated weight tags
Weights are grouped into shared tags instead of per-block JSON files, cutting file size and file count.
Scaling that follows Create Aeronautics
Mass values keep consistent scaling with Create Aeronautics, with exceptions where a block should weigh more.
Light handling for thin geometry
Bars, ladders, mesh and windows are given low weight so thin structures do not feel heavy.

Implements mass physics properties for various mods when using Sable and Create: Aeronautics Despite the fact the logged blocks are appropriately adopting the physics values once the server is fully initiated.
