Jump Over Fences in FTB Skies 2

Jump Over Fences is a small quality-of-life mod with one job: you can jump over fences and walls instead of getting stuck behind them. The mod's own tagline puts it as "you can jump over blocks, why not fences?"^[1]

It's a port of the Fence Jumper mod by TheRealp455w0rd, brought forward to newer Minecraft versions under the MIT license.^[1]

Who it's for

It's for anyone who has been stopped by a fence or wall while building, farming or running around a base. There's nothing to craft and nothing to learn. It just changes how those blocks behave when you jump at them.^[1]

In this pack

The pack includes Jump Over Fences 1.6.1, built for NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1.^[2]

The mod is client side, and its page says you don't need to ask for permissions, you just add it.^[1]

Unverified The sources do not show any quests in this pack that involve the mod, and the mod is not on the ATM Star quest path. Nothing is confirmed about where it fits in progression, and it doesn't appear to need any.

Good news: there is nothing to craft here. Jump Over Fences is a quality-of-life mod that lets you jump over fences and walls, so they stop trapping you while you explore and build.^[1]

What to do first

1. Load into your world and walk up to a fence or a wall.^[1]
2. Jump. Fences and walls that used to hold you in can now be jumped over.^[1]

The mod is client side. It does not add a progression step you need to unlock.^[1]

Unverified I could not confirm any items, crafting recipes, quests or config options for this mod in this pack, so there is nothing to craft or unlock and no recipe to show. The mod version bundled in the pack is also unverified.

Jump Over Fences is much simpler than most mods you'll meet in the pack. It has no machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item handling to set up. It does one thing: you can jump over fences and walls that would normally block you.^[1]

Client-side behavior

The mod is client side, so you don't need any special permission to use it on a server. Newer versions of the mod also send a message to the server to say that it is installed.^[1]

The one config option

The only setting the sources show is client.jumpTheseToo. It is a list of modid:thingid entries for extra things you can jump, and it is used for implicit jumping.^[3]

In this pack the list contains a single entry, cfm:oak_upgraded_fence. The config comment names that entry as an example of the default list item, so the sources don't show the pack changing it.^[3]

Unverified The sources don't say exactly how implicit jumping works, such as the maximum height you can clear or which blocks count by default. They also list no items, recipes or quests for this mod, so I can't confirm any of that.

Jump Over Fences is a client-side mod, so its settings live in a client config file, config/jumpoverfences-client.toml, and only affect your own game. The sources for this pack show one option in that file.^[1][3]

jumpTheseToo

client.jumpTheseToo is a list of extra things you can jump, written as modid:thingid. The file's own comment says it is used for implicit jumping.^[3]

This pack sets the list to a single entry, "cfm:oak_upgraded_fence". The file's comment describes that same entry as the default list item, so the pack's value matches the default it names rather than changing it.^[3]

FTB Skies 2 1.22.0 ships Jump Over Fences 1.6.1. The mod has been in the pack since 1.0.1 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the modpack.^[2]

Mod changelog highlights

• 1.6.0: the mod was ported to Minecraft 1.21.^[4]
• 1.6.1: fixed an issue with mods that use tags for their fences instead of checking whether a block is an instance of the vanilla fence class. Fences from those mods are now handled properly.^[5]

That 1.6.1 release is the version in the pack right now, so you already have both changes. The sources I was given include no pack changelog entries for this mod, so I can't tell you about any other changes to it across pack releases.^[2][4][5]
