This sprinting mod was inspired by GunshipPenguin's own sprinting mod, however, written for ease of use and simplicity in code including the ability to configure the mod right from the advanced settings menu.
The mod has very simple sprinting mechanics, allowing a player to begin sprinting by pressing either the primary sprinting key or by double-tapping the forward movement control. Sprinting can also be constrained to work only if the player is moving forward, and not if the player is pressing only controls that cause them to move in other directions. If enabled, the sprinting speed is changed when in water depending on the value configured.
Configuration
The speed and jump multipliers, hotkeys, and most everything else offered by the mod, can be configured directly from the advanced settings menu in the sprint subsection of the top-level Mods section. You can also configure sprint directly from minetest.conf with the settings listed below.
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| sprint_primary | string | aux1 | Primary sprinting key |
| sprint_second | string | up | Secondary sprinting key |
| sprint_enable_second | bool | true | Allow secondary sprint key |
| sprint_slow_in_water | bool | true | Slow sprinting underwater |
| sprint_speed | float | 1.3 | Speed multiplier |
| sprint_jump | float | 1.1 | Jump multiplier |
| sprint_water_speed | float | 1.1 | Speed multiplier while in water |
| sprint_water_jump | float | 1.0 | Jump multiplier while in water |
| sprint_dir | bool | true | Directional sprinting |
| sprint_particles | int | 1 | Max number of particles |
sprint_primary is the codename of the primary sprint key which causes the speed and jump multipliers to be applied to the player while it is held. If sprint_dir is set to true, players can only sprint while moving forward. sprint_second defines a key that if sprint_enable_second is set to true (default) triggers sprinting when pressed twice within 0.8 seconds. sprint_particles causes a configurable number of particles (sprint_particle_num) to be added behind the player as they sprint. While a higher number of particles produces a nicer visual effect, it causes higher load to the server.
