Farstride

Travel the slow ways: faster roads and boats, a walking staff, climbing claws, a glider, a grappling hook, saddlebags, a horse whistle and a scroll home.

What it does

• Roads are faster: dirt paths, stone bricks, bricks and other paving speed you up by 30 percent, so the road home is worth building.
• Walking Staff: in either hand you step up full blocks and walk a little faster.
• Climbing Claws: hold them and climb any wall you walk into, like a ladder.
• Glider: hold it and fly like a small elytra: jump in the air to open it, lean down for speed, pull up to climb. A long fall opens it by itself. It wears while it carries you; leather repairs it.
• Grappling Hook: aim at a block up to 24 blocks away and it pulls you to it.
• Horse Whistle: brings your nearest tamed horse, donkey or mule to you from up to 128 blocks.
• Saddlebags: put them on your own horse for 27 slots of storage. Sneak and right-click with an empty hand to open them.
• Boats row half again as fast.
• Homeward Scroll: read it and you stand at your bed, or at the world spawn if you have none.
• Roads speed up your horse too: the horse you ride gets the 30 percent bonus.
• Updrafts: the heat of a lit campfire lifts anyone gliding over it (glider or elytra), up to 24 blocks above. Build a camp, climb again.
• Road building: use the Walking Staff on grass or dirt and it lays a dirt path three wide across your way. Walk on, click again: a road in minutes.
• Ride home: read a Homeward Scroll in the saddle of your own horse and the horse comes home with you.
• Rising heat: a glider or elytra flying over a lit campfire, lava or a magma block is lifted.
• More heat: a lit furnace, blast furnace, smoker or a fire lifts a glider too, so a smeltery chimney is a lift.
• Even more heat: a lava cauldron or a lit candle lifts a glider too.
• More roads: gravel, cobblestone, nether bricks, polished tuff, tuff bricks, deepslate bricks and polished blackstone bricks are roads too.

Needs

• Minecraft 26.3, 1.21.11 or 1.21.1 with Fabric Loader + Fabric API, or with NeoForge. Pick the file for your version and loader on the Files tab.
• Installed on both the client and the server (it adds items, and the claws and boats move you on the client)
