About this Mod
A simple utility mod that makes ladder movement much faster and more controllable. By simply changing where you look, you can drastically speed up your climb or drop down instantly without tedious waiting.
Install on the server. Client installation is optional (vanilla clients can join and use it seamlessly).
Singleplayer note: Works perfectly in singleplayer. Just install it normally in your mods folder.
What it does:
- Look up and press forward to climb upwards faster than vanilla speed.
- Look down to descend rapidly without needing to hold any movement keys.
- Look straight ahead to keep your movement speed close to vanilla, giving you precise control.
- Works automatically with ladders, vines, and any other climbable blocks handled by vanilla movement logic.
