🧱 DecayTouch: Hardcore Engineering & Structural Physics

Ever wondered why blocks in Minecraft magically float in the air? Not anymore. DecayTouch completely overhauls world mechanics, introducing structural gravity, container weight limits, and hazardous cave-ins.

Turn your casual mining trips into a tactical engineering challenge!

📊 Vanilla vs DecayTouch

⚠️ Core Mechanics: The World is Crumbling

🛑 CRITICAL RULE: Plan Before You Dig!

If you break a foundational block or build an unstable roof, the structural integrity fails and a cascade collapse begins.

• The 5x5 Stability Matrix: The mod constantly calculates support vectors. Structures must rely on solid foundations, walls, or fences. Lacking support means an immediate collapse.
• Chest Weight Strain: Storing stacks of heavy materials (like cobblestone or iron blocks) adds physical load to the container. Overloading a chest on a weak floor will break the blocks underneath!
• Dynamic Block Fall Rates: Collapsing formations no longer guarantee a 100% safe item drop rate. Debris can break, destroying resources under the rubble.
• Player Stun Hazard: Getting caught directly under falling debris will temporarily disorient and stun your character. Cave-ins are now officially lethal.

🛠️ Specialized Survival Equipment

To survive in this unforgiving environment, vanilla tools won't cut it. You will need to craft advanced engineering gear:

🥾 Wanderer Boots

• Passive Stabilization: Dampens your footsteps.
• Effect: Allows you to traverse highly unstable terrain and fragile ceiling blocks without triggering accidental cascade collapses.

🥽 Geologist Goggles

• Acoustic Seismograph: Emits distinct audio warnings when standing near structurally compromised, dangerous areas.
• X-Ray Radar: Highlights valuable ore outlines through solid rock formations.

🦯 Prospector Staff (Traveler's Cane)

• Structural Diagnostics: Click any block to check its current stability value before stepping on it.
• Weight Scanner: Displays advanced container data, showing the current physical weight vs maximum weight capacity of any target chest.

💥 Seismic Resonator

• Controlled Demolition: Fires a directional ultrasonic pulse that safely triggers collapses from a safe distance.
• Warden Technology: Uses custom Sonic Boom particle rendering and acoustic effects to clear a massive 9x9x9 zone.
• Survival Balance: Features limited durability and a 3-second (60 ticks) cooldown. Fully craftable using a sculk catalyst, an amethyst shard, and obsidian variants.

⚙️ Technical Specifications

• Optimized Physics: The weight checks and matrix updates are highly optimized to maintain smooth server tick rates and client FPS, even during large-scale cascade collapses.
• Compatibility: Built specifically for Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge).
