โ“ FAQ

Q: Does this work with armor/enchantments?
A: Yes! The datapack activates before damage calculation, so your armor still matters.

Q: Will I never take fall damage?
A: You'll only be protected from lethal falls. Small falls still cause normal damage.

Q: Does this work in multiplayer?
A: Absolutely! Works perfectly on servers with multiple players.

Q: Can I modify the delay time?
A: Yes! Edit check_fall.mcfunction and change the value in matches 10.. (10 = 0.5s, 20 = 1s, etc.)

Q: Does this prevent intentional falls?
A: The 0.5s delay allows quick falls to still work while protecting accidental dangerous falls.
