how to prevent boats from sinking

[high wasp]

im using clockwork and trying to make a seatruck from subnautica, and im building it with calcite. but the problem is the floor alone makes the entire boat sink so is there any way i can make it float?

VS sails has some floaty blocks

and a magic ballast thats useful for keeping your ships upright

[high wasp]

is it balanced? like does it add anything that infuses physics or anything?

[supple marlin]

the dedication bottle acts as the physics infuser in Sails

[high wasp]

is there any other mod i could use then?

[supple marlin]

I mean if you don’t like it, you can always remove its recipe with a datapack

that’s what I usually do with unwanted mod content when I am building a modpack

[high wasp]

true i guess

so it adds buoyant blocks?

[supple marlin]

afaik Sails is the only addon that adds a floaty block (the buoy) other than Eureka

yes

alr ty

oh, and unlike Eureka, Sails buoys work independently

ie you just need to place them and they work (unlike Eureka where the floaters only work when a Eureka helm is present)
