Wheelchairs
by Lying
With Wheelchairs installed, players can ride a customisable wheelchair that keeps most of the sprinting, portal and flying abilities a standard player has.
What it does
Wheelchairs adds a wheelchair vehicle that players can customise. The chair can be built from a chosen material, colour and seat, with mix-and-matching wheels, so each one can look different. The chair cannot be destroyed in its item form, and a wheelchair user who dies respawns in the chair even when the player enters Spectator mode.
The mod aims to offer an assistive device for players who want to roleplay disabled characters or see disability represented in the cubic world. Riding the chair keeps abilities such as sprinting, teleporting, sneaking, flying, beacon effects and travelling through portals, and the design gives particular attention to keeping the chair with the player as a mobility aid. Some actions remain harder from the chair than on foot, which the mod leaves in place. A chest chair adds onboard storage, and a furnace minecart chair can follow its rider automatically.
Installation needs Architectury API and Cardinal Components API on every loader. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 and the latest file for 1.21.4, a beta. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Public links exist for the source code, the issue tracker and a wiki.

Who it’s for: The mod suits roleplayers, players who want disability represented in the game, and server owners who run roleplay communities. Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player need it.

What the author says
Minecraft has never had a great deal of options for disabled gamers to see themselves reflected in our cubic world or for roleplayers to portray disabled characters. Up until now, the closest things to a wheelchair were boats and minecarts, but it was always impossible to stay in them all the time without sacrificing…
