About this project

What does Trigger Swing add?

🎯 Trigger Swing

Trigger Swing is a simple but powerful client-side mod for Minecraft that prevents you from swinging your weapon in the air. It ensures that you only attack when your crosshair is actually aimed at an entity (players, mobs, or animals).

✨ Features

  • No more wasted swings – Swing your weapon only when it actually hits something
  • Perfect for PvP – Avoid giving away your position by swinging in the air
  • Smooth gameplay – No lag, no delays, just natural combat
  • Lightweight – Minimal performance impact
  • Client-side only – Works on any server without needing to install on the server

🎮 How it Works

  • When you click your attack button while aiming at air or blocks → Nothing happens (no swing, no sound)
  • When you click your attack button while aiming at a player, mob, or animal → Normal attack with full damage

  2. Download the mod from Modrinth
  3. Place the .jar file in your mods folder
