Simply Parkour
by Nieyels
Simply Parkour sets up timed parkour courses on a server, with pressure-plate starts and finishes, ordered checkpoints and in-world leaderboards.
What it does
Courses are built by server owners in an editable config. A run begins when a player steps on the start pressure plate, a timer appears in the action bar, and it stops when the player reaches the finish plate. Checkpoints placed along the course must be touched in order before a finish counts, and special fall zones can be added to send players back.
Times are stored per player and kept through server restarts. Each course can show a leaderboard made of Text Display entities listing the top 10 fastest times, and a player outside the top 10 still sees their own rank. The mod also works in singleplayer, since it runs server-side. It is published for Fabric on 26.2 only, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Timed courses
A run is timed from the start pressure plate to the finish plate, with the elapsed time shown in the action bar.
Ordered checkpoints
Checkpoints must be touched in sequence before the finish counts, and the order of the checkpoints matters.
In-world leaderboards
Text Display entities show the top 10 fastest times on the course, and players outside it still see their own rank.
Run tools
Players receive a Checkpoint item that returns them to the latest checkpoint without stopping the run, and a Reset item that sends them back to the parkour spawn.

Latest build for each game version and loader.

Use cases
Server parkour events
Server owners can build several timed courses and let players compete for the fastest times on each one.
Solo practice
Because the mod works server-side in singleplayer, a single player can run a course and track their own times.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want timed parkour courses with checkpoints and leaderboards, and players who join those servers to race them.
