Leaning Mod

by sipslush

Leaning Mod lets a player lean around corners and half blocks on Fabric, so the view peeks past cover without fully stepping out.

What it does

Leaning Mod adds a lean control that tilts the player left or right around half blocks and corners. Leaning lets a player see and interact around a corner while the body stays partly hidden, and a player who leans around a corner cannot shoot the other player from there. The mod is inspired by the game Shadows Doubt and gives the character a slightly cursed look while leaning. Players must install it, while the server may add it for extra features. Fabric API is required.

Key features

  1. Half block leaning

    Players can lean left or right next to a half block to peek over or past it.

  2. Corner peeking

    Leaning around a corner shows the area beyond it, making it possible to see and interact there.

  3. Lean animation

    A simple lean animation on the character shows when the player is leaning, so others can spot it.

What the author says

a simple mod that allows you to lean half a block left or right. I got inspired to make this mod from the video game "Shadows of Doubt". It gets a little cursed when you look around leaning. lol. It allows you to see, but not interact around corners. For example, if you lean around a corner, you wont be able to shoot…
