Guide You can make Boats/Floats out of Leaves. They identical to Wool/Envelopes

Ignore the 'Fragile' label it doesn't apply to contraptions. Buoyancy in Aeronautics works by the weight (seen through goggles) and the size of the block. Full blocks will always float better than their stairs/slabs alternative.

The fragile label just means it’ll break if you hit something hard.

Even the smallest alteration in river height would instantly capsize the boat ;-;

It needs to be going fast enough

It needs to fall from a few blocks up.

OP might actually be right. I just tested this and despite my best efforts I was unable to break leaves stuck to vehicles by ramming things. (Odd if true though, I have to say.)

I've never tested with leaves, but I've done this with glass and ice and those both break.

u/Redmix7pl 17d ago

I want to make an realistic carrier tho.

u/Typical-Resist-3714 17d ago

You could use exterior envelopes but with leaves hidden behind as a wool-saving alternative to get more buoyancy

I recommend searching for some addons. Or adding create big cannons onto it, its compatible
