FFExhaustion
by Fyxe
FFExhaustion adds a fatigue meter that fills while players sprint, jump, swing weapons or hold a shield, and drains as they catch their breath.
What it does
Hard physical work tires the character out. Sprinting, fast swimming, sprint-jumps, landings after a long fall, weapon swings whether they hit or miss, and holding up a shield all add to the meter. Standing still or sneaking lets it recover, and a pause after strenuous activity restores it faster. As exhaustion rises, actions become less effective: movement slows and attacks come out more slowly. An optional HUD icon shows how worn out the character is at a glance.
The mod needs Fabric API and includes Forge Config API Port. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 9 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.3, and all rights are reserved. Everything is adjusted through its config, including how much exhaustion slows the character, whether it carries over after death, and optional extra penalties such as potion effects.
Key features
Fatigue meter
A meter fills during strenuous activity and drains when the character rests, so effort has a visible cost.
Movement and attack penalties
Higher exhaustion slows movement and delays attacks, with the strength of the slowdown set in the config.
Recovery rules
Standing still, sneaking and taking a break restore the meter, and the rate depends on how tiring the previous activity was.
Configurable penalties
Optional extra effects such as potion effects can be added, and exhaustion can be set to carry over after death.

What the author says
Sprint, fight, and jump all you like... just don't expect to keep it up forever! FFExhaustion adds a fatigue meter that fills as you push yourself and drains while you catch your breath. Take it easy for a moment and you'll start to recover. Standing still or sneaking speeds that up.
