Using Crampedness on Multiplayer Servers

Connecting to Servers

Crampedness is an entirely client-side mod, which allows you to use it on any multiplayer world without server-side support.

1. Launch your client with the mod active.

2. Connect to any vanilla or modded multiplayer server. No server plugins, server-side mod files, or administrative permissions are needed.

3. Enter narrow corridors, tunnels, or player-built rooms to verify that the retraction animations function as expected.

Interacting Around Other Players

In multiplayer environments, the proximity detection extends beyond world geometry:

• Player Proximity: Your held items will smoothly pull back toward you when you stand in close quarters with other players, just as they do near mobs and solid blocks.
• Fair Gameplay and Anti-Cheat: Because the mod only adjusts your client-side visual animations, core game rules are entirely untouched. Your block placement range, attack reach, and hitboxes remain standard vanilla values, ensuring compatibility with standard multiplayer gameplay and avoiding reach-related issues.
