Parkour Thingies
by ninem4re
Parkour Thingies adds blocks that make a parkour course more lively, with jump pads and dash blocks, and a step top block crafted from Gold-plated Emerald Block.
What it does
The mod adds placeable blocks for jumping courses. A step top block is a functional block crafted with Gold-plated Emerald Block, and other blocks launch the player upward or push them forward in a dash. Builders can combine them to shape a course without any commands or scripts, and the blocks work the same in single-player and on a multiplayer server.
Both the server and every player need the mod, because the blocks act on the player's movement. Parkour Thingies requires Fabric API, and files are published for Fabric and Quilt, covering 1.20.1 and 1.20.2 with the latest build for 1.20.2. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
The mod was first published on 2023-08-12 and last updated on 2023-11-26. Its author describes it as a lighter take on the original Dash mod and a short-term project, so future updates and wider version support are not promised.

Use cases
Who it’s for: The mod suits builders and map makers who want parkour courses with extra movement blocks. Server owners who run a course on a multiplayer server can use it too, since the server and every player need the mod.
