Lava Boat Clutch Fix

# Lava Boat Clutch Fix > Restores the "lava boat clutch" mechanic which was removed in Minecraft 1.21.5 --- In Minecraft 1.21.5, Mojang fixed the bug that allowed boats to briefly survive on lava — the mechanic behind the legendary **lava boat clutch** (famously used by **Dream** in **Manhunt**). This mod restores it. When a boat first touches lava, it receives a short immunity window so the player can land on the hitbox and survive the fall — exactly like in older versions. **Now you can do lava boat clutches in modern Minecraft!** ## Supported Platforms Lava Boat Clutch Fix is currently available for Fabric, Quilt or NeoForge on Minecraft: Java Edition 1.21.5 or newer. ## Three Editions This mod comes in three editions, so you can pick the one that fits your setup: ## Regular edition The full experience with an in-game config screen. - **Lava immunity** — boats survive on lava for a configurable number of ticks (default: 3) - **Fire damage protection** — no fire damage to the boat during the immunity window - **Item drop bounce** — the dropped boat item bounces upward out of the lava so it doesn't burn (default: vanilla) - **No fire flicker** — fire particles are suppressed on the client for the first 4 ticks - **Toggle on/off** — disable the mod at any time without removing it (default: enable mod) - ⚙️ **Fully configurable** — adjust everything via the in-game config screen - 🌐 **Localized** — this mod version supports a lot of languages! > Dependencies: on Fabric/Quilt the config screen requires Cloth Config + Mod Menu, on NeoForge the config screen is built in - no dependencies. **Also available: a "lightweight regular edition" — same mod, same config, just without the extra translations, so the file size is smaller.** ## Raw edition The exact same mechanic with zero dependencies and zero config. - **Lava immunity** — boats survive on lava for 3 ticks - **Fire damage protection** — no fire damage to the boat during the immunity window - **Item drop bounce** — the dropped boat item bounces upward out of the lava so it doesn't burn - **No fire flicker** — fire particles are suppressed on the client for the first 4 ticks - 🪶 **Zero dependencies** — no Cloth Config, no Mod Menu required > If you want to change any of the config values, use the regular edition instead. --- ## Configuration (regular edition) Open the config screen via Mod Menu → Lava Boat Clutch Fix → Config (Fabric/Quilt) or Mods → Lava Boat Clutch Fix → Config (NeoForge) | Option | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `Enable Mod` | `true` | Toggle the entire mod on/off | | `Immunity Ticks` | `3` | How many ticks the boat is protected on first lava contact | | `Bounce Mode` | `Vanilla` | `Vanilla` — vanilla behavior; `Custom` — custom X/Y/Z velocity; `Random` - random X/Y/Z velocity| | `Bounce Y` | `0.0` | Upward velocity of the dropped item (Custom mode) | | `Bounce X/Z` | `0.0` | Horizontal velocity of the dropped item (Custom mode) | --- ## Gratitude Special thanks to: - [Minecraft Curios Animations](https://www.youtube.com/@MinecraftCuriosAnimations) for mod image. - [ClaudeAI](https://claude.com) for helping me :) --- ## Support me - Subscribe to my [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@IAmGurich) - Send [donation](https://dalink.to/iamgurich)
