grappling-armor
by kooyoseb
grappling-armor lets a suit fire grappling hooks and swing across gaps, with range upgrades and loot and trade progression that gate the gear.
What it does
A grappling device is worn as part of a suit. Right-clicking with the suit equipped fires a grappling hook, a chain-style projectile with rope particles and a tip effect. Holding Ctrl or sprint gives swing assist, and Shift or sneak gives dash assist while attached.
Progression runs through anvil range upgrades that use grappling parts, which can be traded from a master weaponsmith or found in chests across the world. A guidebook, advancements, sounds and textures round out the content, and a custom creative inventory tab collects the items.
The mod runs on Fabric and is published for 26.1 – 26.2 (4 release versions). Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is under CC0 1.0 Universal, so the mod is open source. Snapshot builds are not published.
