👣 Footsteps Trail

A lightweight client-side mod that displays fading footstep markers behind you as you explore. Whether you're delving into caves, navigating forests, or mapping new areas, your trail will guide you back.


✨ Features

Tracking Modes

  • Steps Mode – Keep your last N footsteps (default: 50, max: 500)
  • Time Mode – Footsteps fade after a set duration (default: 30s, max: 300s)
  • Stealth Mode – Automatically disables footstep tracking and rendering while sneaking/crouching (default: enabled)
  • Stride Adjustment – Stride length is automatically factored in: sprinting increases the minimum distance between steps by 50% to reflect larger strides

Placement Modes

  • Ground Only (default) – Markers only on solid ground
  • Continuous – Track everywhere, even in air/water

Marker Shapes

  • Square (default) – Simple flat square
  • Circle – Smooth circular marker
  • Paw – Paw print with toe pads
  • Cross – Plus-shaped marker

Customization

  • Colors: White, Gray, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow
  • Size: Adjustable from 0.05 to 2.0
  • Opacity: Adjustable from 0.05 to 1.0
  • Rotation Alignment: Rotates markers to match the player's looking (yaw) direction (default: enabled)
  • Alternating Feet: Offsets consecutive footsteps to the left and right alternately to simulate realistic walking (default: enabled)
  • Quick toggle with B key
