Grappling Hook Mod
by yyon
With Grappling Hook Mod, players fire a hook at a surface, reel themselves toward it and move quickly across large builds such as cities.
What it does
The mod adds grappling hooks and other movement tools for crossing tall or wide structures. It includes new enchantments for boots, wallrunning, double jumping and a rocket upgrade that propels the user forward while its fuel regenerates. Settings for the hook modifier and a sticky rope option are included.
The mod requires Cloth Config API as a dependency. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with game versions 1.12.2 – 1.21.1 and the latest builds targeting 1.21.1 and 1.20.1. The code is under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source. Options are available in the in-game mod settings, and the config file is named grapplingHook.cfg.
