whops
by olinolivia
whops is a Fabric minigame mod for 26.2 that gives each player a personal checkpoint system on parkour courses.
What it does
Checkpoints are tracked per player, so each participant on a course keeps their own progress and can reset to the last point they reached. The course system is built to work with those checkpoints, which lets a map use them as part of its layout. Challenge flags restrict how a player moves, for example allowing only sprinting, or disabling sprinting or jumping for a given run.
The mod targets parkour maps that bundle their own setup, so it is meant to be used together with an all-in-one dependency pack for those maps. Backwards compatibility options for movement are listed among the things it works with. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the author notes that further features are planned and suggestions are taken through the issue tracker.
Installation needs Fabric API on the Fabric loader. whops is published for Fabric only, with a single build, v1.0.0, for 26.2. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain as far as the law allows.

How it compares
Simply Parkour is a server-side only Fabric mod for 26.2 under the MIT License, so players can join without installing it. Parkour Practice is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.21.11 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so only the client needs it. ParkourEditor is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod for 1.21.4 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, where the server is required and the client is optional. whops differs from all three in its client and server environment and its 26.2 target.
