Fast Path
by Sygikal
Fast Path makes dirt paths move players and horses faster, and it is a Fabric server mod that clients may optionally run.
What it does
Walking, riding or sprinting on a dirt path raises the base movement speed of the player or horse, and pigs also benefit from the faster surface. The base speed on a dirt path is multiplied by 0.3 on top of the normal value. The effect does not use potion effects, so an existing speed boost stacks with it instead of being replaced. Sprint jumps on paths and a grass pattern left by misplaced grass are also covered by the speed change. The server must run the mod, while clients may leave it out. Fast Path is published for Fabric only, for 1.19 – 1.21.10, and is licensed under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Faster dirt paths
Dirt paths raise the movement speed of players and horses that cross them, making roads through the world quicker to travel.
Stacks with potion effects
The speed boost is not a potion effect, so it adds to existing speed effects instead of overwriting them.
Covers sprinting and jumping
Sprinting and sprint jumps on paths get the speed change too, including across the grass pattern left by misplaced grass.

Fast path allows for you, your horse, and pig to move faster on dirt paths. Fast path doesn't use potion effects to modify speed so this boost can be stacked with them. While on a dirt path, your base movement speed will be multiplied by 0.3.
