Attribute Swap Window
by qxny
Attribute Swap Window restores attribute swapping for Fabric servers and singleplayer worlds, with a configurable timing window for fast item swaps in PvP.
What it does
The mod restores attribute swapping behavior and adds a swap timing window that can be set from 1 to 20 ticks. Minecraft normally runs 20 ticks per second, so one tick is roughly 50 milliseconds, and the default setting is about 300 milliseconds. A larger number makes the window more forgiving, whereas a smaller one demands tighter timing from the player.
The mod is built for modern PvP mechanics that involve fast item swaps, including combat with spears, maces and other attribute-based items. It has two parts: a server-side component that controls swap behavior for connected players, and a client mod that the player must install. Singleplayer worlds run through Minecraft's integrated server, so the same server-side swap logic applies locally without a separate dedicated server.
Installation needs Fabric on the client and on any dedicated server. The mod is published for Fabric only, across five release versions 26.1 – 26.3, and it is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved. Server owners can use Paper, Spigot, Bukkit, Purpur and Folia, but the Fabric build is the one that is published.
