Carpet PvP Practice
by AndrewCTF
Carpet PvP Practice gives a server bots that return blows, letting a player rehearse PvP without a human opponent on hand.
What it does
Bots engage in five combat styles, namely sword, smp, mace, crystal and ranged, and each style ships with its own loadout. Five skill settings run from beginner to expert and vary the bot's response speed, aim and clicking pace. The command /auto-setup sword average constructs a walled training ring beside the player and stations a bot within it, so one line starts a bout.
Practice tools include scored drills, cooperative and every-player-for-themselves rounds, watching a bot from outside and recorded fight traces. Chest menus opened with /bot gui work with a vanilla client. Every player may use /bot by default, and a server admin can limit it to operators with /carpet commandBot ops. The mod is built on Carpet, so fake players, Scarpet and the familiar Carpet rules are included.
Carpet PvP Practice is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric API, and the files cover 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3 under the Apache License 2.0, which is open source. The latest Fabric file is 26.3-19+v261005, dated 2026-10-05.
