Weather Physics (Wind, Sails & Tornadoes)
by killey
With Weather Physics installed, wind and tornadoes push sub-levels and sails catch the air on NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
Weather Physics adds wind physics to sub-levels and sailing physics that turn windmill sails. Tornadoes pull sub-levels into a vortex, and the strength of a tornado depends on its intensity stage. A tornado can destroy blocks, and a hull that breaks can split a ship into separate physics objects.
The mod requires Sable and Weather Storms & Tornadoes, and it works as a compatibility bridge between Sable and Weather2. CoroUtil and Weather2 must also be present, since Weather2 is a dependency. Physics destruction logic can be changed in the config, so server owners can decide how far tornado damage reaches.
Weather Physics runs on NeoForge and needs both the server and every player to have it. Files exist for 1.21.1 only, with 1.0.3 as the latest file, first published on 2026-05-13 and last updated on 2026-07-19. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the issue tracker and source code are public.
Key features
Wind-driven sub-levels
Sub-levels respond to wind, so loose structures drift and shift when weather blows through.
Sailing physics
Windmill sails catch the wind and move a ship using the air flow rather than a fixed speed.
Tornado vortex
A tornado pulls nearby sub-levels into a spinning vortex, and its effect grows with the intensity stage.
Configurable destruction
Tornadoes can destroy blocks and break hulls, and the destruction logic is adjustable in the config.

Use cases
Storm-based sailing

Tornado survival
Tornadoes become a threat in a world, and players must plan around the damage a vortex can cause.
Who it’s for: Players who want wind and tornado effects on ships and structures, and server owners who want configurable destruction on a NeoForge 1.21.1 server.
