Sprint O' Meter
by PaperScorpio
Sprint O' Meter adds a stamina bar under the experience bar, and sprinting, jumping and swimming draw from it.
What it does
Stamina drains while a player sprints and recovers over time. Once the bar reaches zero, jumping is disabled and movement slows down, so a player has to stop and wait. The amount deducted per action can be scaled by the player's saturation, so a well-fed character spends stamina at a different rate than a hungry one.
Swimming is restricted as well. With no stamina left, a player cannot sprint underwater, and stamina regenerates more slowly while submerged. The mod also adds stamina-related potion effects. Most of its settings can be changed, and the in-game options screen is reached through Mod Menu. The mod needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API, and it is published for Fabric and Quilt, with 2.0na for 1.19.2 as the latest file, under a custom license that is not open source.

Use cases

Players who want sprinting to have a cost can use the bar to limit long runs across the terrain of a survival world.
Server rules
Server owners can tune the stamina values to set how demanding movement is for everyone on a multiplayer server.
Who it’s for: Players looking for a cursed, customizable movement mechanic, and server owners who want stamina rules on a multiplayer server. Both the server and every player need the mod, and it requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API.
