Snow has block physics like a block physic mod was instead but, only applies to snow. instead of air collapsing snow it just drops like sand and gravel without animation straight to the nearest block below. I have provided a video and a log of the game. I didn't see anything unusual in the log during the event however, the log might still yield something.

TheWeatherPony commented 8 years ago

The log won't yield anything as this is the currently intended behavior. I will change this behavior to not be instant when I do the next overhaul needed for more idealistic snow, which I was already planning on doing.

jredfox commented 8 years ago

is falling snow intended? I would like an option in the config so you can enable snow collapsing by air like you said you would do after I first reported that bug. I would like it off by default however it's up to you if you want to keep it on by default. Adding an animation would be a good idea for snow falling for each and every tile variable.

TheWeatherPony commented 8 years ago

Snow falling is intended - it is a significant improvement over vanilla, where the snow just vanishes (imagine having 5m snow banks, and being able to clear them just by touching the ground under them - totally unrealistic). Having the snow fall instantaneously may not be perfect, but it's still an improvement. Making the snow fall non-instantaneously is a planned addition. The logic that collapses the snow instantly is part of the same logic that makes the snow stack into a single block. This part of the snow logic can be disabled by setting the snow logic variable "compress" to false (zero).

jredfox commented 8 years ago

yeah well could you at least add in an option in a config to make snow behave like vanilla for it collapsing in air?

TheWeatherPony commented 8 years ago

But vanilla doesn't collapse in the air - it simply dematerializes out of existence. If there isn't already a setting for making it vanish into nothingness, then I'll make sure to add one.

jredfox commented 8 years ago

ok. make sure it's a config option because, snow having physics is intended .
