Steppy
by nat212
Steppy lets players set how many blocks their character can step up without jumping, with an optional higher step while sneaking.
What it does
The mod changes the step height of the player. A configurable value sets how many blocks the character climbs in one step, and the default is set in the config. A separate option raises that height while the player is sneaking, and it is off by default. Both options can be turned on or off, and the whole mod can be disabled in the config.
Steppy is a simple mod that takes its idea from StepUp by Giselbaer and is aimed at players who prefer a set step height to the vanilla auto jump. Its config file exposes the main switch, the sneaking switch and the step height value. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it and servers can run without it.
Steppy is open source under the MIT License. It requires Cloth Config API for its settings screen and works with Mod Menu when that is installed. It is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with the latest builds targeting 1.21.5.

Use cases
Replacing auto jump
Players who dislike the vanilla auto jump can keep it off and rely on a fixed step height instead.
Tuning climbs
A value above one block lets the character clear ledges that would otherwise need a jump.
Who it’s for: Players who want to control how high their character steps up, on Fabric or NeoForge clients for Minecraft 1.20 – 1.21.5.

What the author says
Steppy is a simple mod allowing you to set your step height. I personally find this to be a lot better than the vanilla auto jump feature.
