Simple weapon cooldown

by f9504566

Simple weapon cooldown gives each weapon its own cooldown, so a swing costs time and spam-clicking stops paying off in fights.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT License1.21.1 – 1.21.11

What it does

Each weapon in the game gets a cooldown after it is used, and the timing of attacks becomes a choice rather than a rapid click sequence. Players must decide when to strike, which keeps combat closer to skill-based exchanges. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing it. Fabric is the only loader, with files for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and the latest file, 1.0.1, released for 1.21.11 on 2026-05-06. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Per-weapon cooldowns

    Every weapon has its own cooldown after an attack, so different weapons carry a different cost per swing.

  2. Timing over button speed

    Fights reward well-timed attacks rather than rapid clicking, so outcomes depend less on click rate.

  3. Server-side operation

    The cooldown logic runs on the server alone, and clients do not need to install anything extra.

What the author says

Do you really think every weapon should feel the same? If your answer is yes — this mod is not for you. Weapon Cooldowns introduces a simple but brutal idea: every weapon has a purpose, and every swing has a cost.
