Vanilla Rope
by luczynx
Vanilla Rope adds a climbing rope to NeoForge 1.21.1 that players throw, place and unwind to climb.
What it does
The rope is held by crouching and right-clicking, then thrown and placed on the ground, where it can be unwound for climbing. It is built in a vanilla style and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. The mod targets NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, with a single file dated 2026-08-22, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Adds a vanilla-style climbing rope to the game! Crouch and hold right click to throw the rope, or just place it, the rope will then unwind to the ground, allowing you to climb down. This makes cave exploring significantly easier!
