Better Controls

Better Controls is a new client-only mod that includes many more toggle keybinds and options than Better Sprinting. It's available for Forge and Fabric.

While not a direct replacement, I intend to support Better Controls in the future and eventually stop updating Better Sprinting.

Features

  • Sprint key can be set to Tap or Hold mode

  • Toggle keys for sprinting and sneaking

  • Option to turn off double tapping W

  • Option to sprint in all directions in singleplayer

  • Configurable speed boost when flying in creative/spectator mode

  • Option to continue flying when touching the ground

  • To configure the mod, click the Better Sprinting button in Controls, or press the configuration key in-game (default: 'O')

  • To configure update notifications in Minecraft 1.13/1.14, open the config folder (same location as the mods folder), and edit the bettersprinting-client.toml file in a text editor

Tips

  • While sprinting, press the Sprint key again to stop
  • Opening a GUI while toggle sneaking makes you automatically stand up until you close it
  • LAN multiplayer allows sprinting in all directions if the host has the mod installed

Servers

Use the /bettersprinting admin command to enable special features, or automatically disable the mod for players on the server. If you don't have a Forge server, you can read about the server protocol to implement a custom plugin and benefit from the features.

Old Versions
