Basic Traversal

| Vault | Sprint toward a 1-block obstacle | Automatically leap over fences, walls, or single blocks without losing momentum. |
| Crawl | Press C (Default) | Allows the player to drop into a 1-block tall crawling state to navigate tight spaces. |
| Slide | Press C while Fast Running | Perform a low-profile slide to pass under gaps or maintain speed while descending slopes. |
Wall & Aerial Maneuvers

Core Mechanics
Stamina System
Most parkour actions in ParCool consume Stamina, represented by a bar on the HUD (usually located in the bottom right).
- Consumption: Actions like Wall Running, Cat Leaping, and Fast Running drain the bar at varying rates.
- Regeneration: Stamina recovers automatically when the player is standing still, walking, or performing basic movements.
- Exhaustion: If the stamina bar is completely depleted, the player enters an exhausted state, preventing them from performing parkour moves until a portion of the bar has recharged.
The Action Key
While many moves are context-sensitive (triggered by sprinting or jumping), several advanced maneuvers require the Action Key (Default: Left Alt or R depending on the version). This key is used for dodging, rolling, and initiating specific wall-based movements.
The ParCool Guide
For players who want an in-game reference, the mod includes a guidebook. If the Patchouli mod is installed, this guide becomes a fully interactive book.
