Features:
Thanks to BlackDragonIV for this awesome feature demonstration video.
Thanks to xXL33tsauceXx for this awesome show case video.
Feature: Free Climbing
To climb up you have to move forward toward the edge (default "W") and click and hold the grab button (default "LCONTROL").
To climb down click and hold the grab button without moving forward toward the edge.
To grab an edge while falling down along a wall, rotate towards the edge in the wall and press the grab button. If you are still falling slow enough, free climbing will start. If you are beyond a certain falling speed when grabbing, damage will be done to you.
To change this default grab button visit Minecrafts "Options"/"Controls" menu.
Feature: Ladder Climbing
Simple Mode:
- Standard climbing on complete ladder coverage
- Standard climbing on feet only ladder coverage
- Slow climbing on hands only ladder coverage
Smart Mode:
- Standard climbing on complete ladder coverage
- Slow climbing on feet only ladder coverage
- Slow climbing on hands only ladder coverage
- Standard climbing when "holes" in the walls next to the ladder are present (solid block/nonsolid block or half steps)
Free Mode:
- Ladder climbing is functionally embedded in the feature free climbing.
- Specific speeds are configurable on top of the free climbing configuration with Smart Mode-inspired default values.
Examples:
Feature: Climbing along ceilings
To start climbing along ceilings hold the grab button when below, but not too far below, the climbable ceiling. To stop ceiling climbing simply release the grab button.
If wall climbing is also possible when pressing the pressing the grab button, wall climbing will start instead. In this case turn into the direction you want to move to start ceiling climbing.
Feature: Configurable sneaking
Additionally sneaking can be made togglable. When toggled on it can be toggled off by pressing the sneak button again. This also works while swimming or diving.
Feature: Alternative Swimming and Diving
To dive jump into still water that is at least two blocks deep. Then press and hold the forward button to dive. To steer use your mouse.
To swim stop holding the forward button and press and hold the jump button instead until you reach the surface. Then press and hold the forward button again to swim. To steer use your mouse again.
To dive again stop pressing the jump button and direct your mouse toward the depths.
When you are walking in one block deep water you can switch to diving by pressing the sneak and then the grab button. If you press the jump button before the grab button you will switch to swimming instead.
When you are swimming or divind in one block deep water you can switch to walking by pressing the grab button.
Feature: Alternative Flying
It completely replaces standard flying and allows you to fly up and down via looking. The standard flying jump to raise, sneak to fall behaviour has been reimplemented and works similar to its standard flying counterpart.
Alternative flying can be started and ended just like standard flying by double clicking the jump button.
Feature: Charged jumps
To start charging press and hold the jump button while sneaking on the spot. To jump either release the jump button or stop sneaking. The default maximum charge jump height is two blocks.
When you start moving while charging the charge will be lost.
Feature: Head Jumping
To head jump start sprinting and press the grab and the jump button. When the jump button is released you will jump, head first, with a angle depending on how long you pressed the jump button.
Hitting ground while falling with your head first will damage you more than hitting ground with your feet first.
Feature: Side & Back Jumps
To jump left double click the left button, to jump right double click the right button and to jump back double click the back button.
You can also jump back-left and back-right by double clicking both relevant buttons at once.
Feature: Sliding
To slide on the ground you have to start sprinting first. Then press the sneak button while pressing the grab button.
Additionally you can start sliding from forward jumping or flying. Just hit the ground while pressing the sneak and the grab button.
You will slide as long as the initial horizontal ground hitting speed and the ground spipperiness supports it. If the sneak button is still pressed when the sliding stops you start crawling instead.
To stop sliding before it stops itself simple stop pressing the sneak button.
Feature: Faster Sprinting and Exhaustion
To sprint you have to move forward and click and hold the sprint button (default "TAB"). Sprinting is currently possible for walking, swimming diving, crawling, and climbing.
Sprinting optionally causes exhaustion and will automatically end when a certain configurable threshold is reached.
To change this default sprint button visit Minecrafts "Options"/"Controls" menu.
Feature: Crawling
To crawl you have to press the grab and the sneak button. When climbing would be possible at you current position and direction you might start climbing instead. To avoid this press the sneak button before the climb button to ensure to start crawling. When crawling you can release the grab button.
You can also free climb while crawling. Just move to the related edge press grab and move forward towards it.
Additionally you can free climb into a crawlable gap. Just press sneak while you climb up and you will end up crawling in the first crawlable gap along your climb path.
Crawling can be made togglable via the configuration file. When toggled on it can be toggled off by pressing the sneak button again to enter sneaking of by pressing the jump button to stand up immediately.
Feature: Configurability
Currently the difficulty levels "Easy", "Medium" and "Hard" are configured. You can switch between those in-game by pressing F9 (the exact button can be changed too)
More information about the configuration of this mod is included in its readme and option files.
Previous option files like "smart_climbing_options.txt" and "smart_ladder_climbing_speed_options.txt" are still accepted but their content is eventually overridden by the content of existing more actual option files.
If no option files are present at all, the default option values (all features, default configuration) will be used.
If an option is not present in the files, the corresponding default value will be used.
The option "move.options.version" will be used for cross version compatibility.
