Description
Information
Tracks is a small Fabric mod that automatically creates natural walking paths by transforming grass blocks into dirt paths as players repeatedly walk over them.
Block wear: Each time you step on a grass block or dirt path, it increments a counter. After a set number of steps, grass becomes a dirt path, and dirt paths become packed dirt paths. Packed dirt paths can only be formed this way, by walking, never crafted or made with a hoe.
Speed boost: Walking on a packed dirt path gives you a small speed boost, so the roads you wear in actually pay off.
Step counter: Look at any grass or dirt path within 5 blocks to see the current step count for that block.
Sneak bypass: You can choose to have sneaking prevent step counts from increasing.
Commands
/tracks walktoggle: toggle the on-block step counter.
/tracks sneaktoggle: toggle sneak bypass on or off.
Configuration

Edit config/tracks_config.json to change the step thresholds and the speed boost. With Mod Menu (and Cloth Config) installed, you can change all of it in-game from the mod's settings screen instead.
