Better Falling Block Particles Mod adds a simple visual effect to gravity-affected blocks like sand and gravel. In Minecraft, these blocks can sometimes float in the air until you update a block nearby. This mod makes those floating blocks emit small dust particles, making them easy to spot. It acts as a warning, so you know which blocks are unstable and about to fall. You can also customize the particles, changing how often they appear and how long they last on screen.

Features:

Makes blocks like sand and gravel drop small particles when they are floating in the air.
Helps you easily spot unstable blocks that are about to fall.
The particle effects work in all environments, from caves to underwater areas.
You can change the settings for the particles if you have Mod Menu.
Lets you control how often particles appear and how long they stay on the screen.
This is a client-side mod, so it works even on servers that do not have it installed.

Configuration:

You can change the properties of the particles, like how long they last or how often they appear. There are two ways to do this:

In-Game Menu: If you have ModMenu installed, you can change the settings right inside the game. This is the easiest way.
Config File: You can also edit the config file directly. It is located at <minecraft folder>/config/falling_block_particles.properties. Be careful when changing values in this file, because incorrect entries might cause the game to crash.
