SpeedrunUtils
by lunc
SpeedrunUtils is a Fabric utility mod for Minecraft 1.21.11 that manages speedruns with built-in timer blindness and run tracking.
What it does
Speedrun sessions can be managed on the server with the mod's run management commands. Players join with the blindness effect already applied, which is the timer blindness mechanic the mod is built around, and runs are tracked from start to finish.
Splits are recorded automatically as a run progresses, and the run status is kept as RUNNING while it is in progress. Because the mod is server-side only, players join without installing anything and clients need nothing extra.
The mod needs Fabric Loader 0.18.4 and Fabric API, runs on Java 21 or later, and is installed by placing its JAR in the server mods folder. It is published for 1.21.11 only, released under the MIT License, and is open source.
Key features
Run management commands
Server commands start, control and manage speedruns from within the game world.
Timer blindness mechanic
Players begin each run with the blindness effect applied, a core part of the speedrun setup.
Automatic split recording
Splits are logged as the run goes on, so no manual marking is needed during a timed attempt.
Run tracking
Each run is tracked and its state is kept as RUNNING until it finishes.

Ubik's Cube Timer is client-side only, open source under the MIT License, and published for 1.21.5. Mob Blindness is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, but its files cover 1.16.2 – 1.17.1 only.
