Better CPS

by x1eqn

Better CPS puts a live clicks-per-second counter on screen, with an optional keystrokes overlay that lights up each WASD key and left and right mouse button as it is pressed.

FabricClient and serverMIT License1.21.11 – 26.1.2

What it does

The counter tracks clicks per second and shows the figure in a position and colour the player can set. The optional keystrokes display sits beside it and marks WASD and the left and right mouse buttons while they are held, which suits PvP practice and clicking tests. Settings are reached through Mod Menu, so nothing needs editing in config files by hand.

Both the server and each player need Better CPS installed, and it requires Fabric API. The mod is published for Fabric only, across 4 release versions 1.21.11 – 26.1.2, and is released under the MIT License. It is not open source.

Key features

  1. Live CPS counter

    Clicks per second are displayed on screen and update while the player clicks.

  2. Adjustable position and colour

    The counter's place on screen and its RGB colour can both be changed in the settings.

  3. Optional keystrokes overlay

    WASD and the left and right mouse buttons are drawn as boxes that light up when pressed, and the overlay can be switched off.

  4. Mod Menu settings

    Options are grouped under Mod Menu, where the counter and the overlay are configured.
