Minecraft 1.21.11 - Fabric
You are not following the rules of this world. In this world, you are the rules themselves.
Host God Core - Make the host the one true god of the world.
The Overworld is yours to command. All things are yours to judge.
Welcome to the God Authority Group - Grapple & Bridge Division.
Grapple & Bridge is a movement and traversal mod designed to make crossing the Minecraft world dramatically faster, more flexible, and more entertaining.
The mod contains two main systems:
No commands are required.
The goal is simple:
If there is somewhere you want to go, Grapple & Bridge gives you a way to get there.
Grapple & Bridge requires:
The mod contains both client-side movement behavior and server-side world interaction and should therefore be installed on both the client and server when used in multiplayer.
The Bridge Gun is automatically provided to a player when joining a world or server if that player does not already have one in their inventory.
The Bridge Gun has a maximum stack size of one.
No command is required to obtain it during normal use.
The grappling system does not require a new grappling-hook item.
Instead:
A normal vanilla Fishing Rod becomes the grappling tool.
Hold a Fishing Rod in your main hand to use the grappling system.
The controls below refer to Minecraft's default mouse bindings.
Left Click while holding a Fishing Rod
This creates an anchor in the direction of the player's crosshair and rapidly pulls the player directly toward that anchor.
This mode is designed for:
The player is pulled toward the target in a fast, direct trajectory rather than swinging underneath the anchor.
When the player reaches the anchor, the grapple automatically releases.
Right Click while holding a Fishing Rod
This creates an anchor in the direction of the player's crosshair and activates Swing Mode.
Instead of pulling the player directly to the target, Swing Mode behaves more like a suspended rope.
The player can preserve and build momentum while moving around the anchor.
This mode is useful for:
Both grapple modes have a maximum targeting distance of approximately:
96 blocks
If the grapple finds a block within that distance, that location becomes the anchor.
If no block is hit, the system creates a virtual anchor in the air at the maximum range.
This means the grappling system does not always require a physical ceiling, wall, tree, or other block to attach to.
You can therefore grapple through open areas and across large gaps even when there is no convenient physical anchor directly in front of you.
While using Swing Mode:
The rope is gradually shortened.
This pulls the player closer to the anchor and allows the player to increase the intensity and shape of the swing.
The rope cannot be shortened indefinitely; the system retains a minimum safe rope length.
The grapple is released.
Importantly:
Current momentum is preserved.
The player is therefore not simply stopped in mid-air when the grapple is released.
A well-timed release can launch the player forward and can be used to chain movement across large distances.
Switching away from the Fishing Rod also releases an active grapple.
Fishing Rod + Left Click
Direct high-speed grapple.
Fishing Rod + Right Click
Swing grapple.
Shift while swinging
Reel in / shorten the rope.
Space
Release the grapple while preserving momentum.
Maximum grapple targeting distance
Approximately 96 blocks.
The second major system in Grapple & Bridge is the Bridge Gun.
The Bridge Gun creates real Minecraft block structures directly in the world.
These bridges are not temporary visual effects.
They are actual walkable bridges designed to provide immediate terrain traversal.
Right Click while holding the Bridge Gun
A bridge is generated forward from the player's current position.
The maximum bridge targeting distance is approximately:
128 blocks
When a valid target is detected, the bridge attempts to connect toward that target while respecting the bridge geometry rules.
If no target is hit, the bridge continues forward using the player's horizontal facing direction.
Sneak / Shift + Right Click
This cycles through the five available bridge modes:
After the fifth mode, the selection cycles back to the first.
The selected bridge mode is shown through the in-game HUD.
3 blocks
The Rope Bridge is a lighter bridge style intended for quick traversal while retaining side railings for safer movement.
3 blocks
This is a simple, conventional wooden bridge designed for normal travel.
5 blocks
The Solid Wooden Bridge provides a wider walking surface and is better suited to larger routes or areas where more movement space is desirable.
5 blocks
The Stone Bridge provides a heavier permanent structure with a wide deck and solid side barriers.
5 blocks
The Obsidian Bridge is the heaviest and most visually imposing bridge type currently included in the mod.
Version 0.1.2 contains an extensively revised bridge-generation system designed around one priority:
The bridge should actually be comfortable to walk across.
When firing into open air, the bridge does not follow the vertical pitch of the crosshair.
Instead, it follows the player's horizontal facing projection.
This prevents the Bridge Gun from accidentally creating:
When the Bridge Gun detects a real target at a different elevation, the bridge is allowed to rise or descend.
However, the maximum slope is limited to approximately:
1 block of vertical change for every 6 blocks of bridge length.
This prevents extreme slopes and keeps bridges reasonably walkable.
The bridge surface uses high-density sampling and duplicate-position filtering.
This prevents diagonal bridges from turning into disconnected parkour-style block patterns.
The bridge deck is intended to remain continuous even when travelling diagonally across the Minecraft block grid.
Bridge railings automatically follow:
The railings are generated together with the bridge rather than remaining at a fixed height while the bridge rises or falls.
The Bridge Gun only places bridge blocks into positions that are currently air.
It does not intentionally replace existing solid blocks.
This allows bridges to interact with terrain without simply erasing everything in their path.
However, the generated bridge is still a permanent world modification.
Always use caution around builds or terrain that you want to preserve.
The Bridge Gun is designed for forward traversal.
If the player aims almost directly upward or downward, the system may refuse to generate a bridge.
Aim generally forward when building.
If the target is extremely close, bridge generation may also be cancelled because there is not enough distance to create a useful structure.
Right Click
Generate the currently selected bridge.
Shift + Right Click
Switch bridge mode.
Maximum bridge range
Approximately 128 blocks.
Open-air shot
Bridge follows horizontal facing direction.
Real target at another elevation
Bridge may slope toward the target, limited to approximately one vertical block per six blocks of length.
Grapple & Bridge works completely on its own.
However, for a more complete movement and combat experience, I recommend combining it with:
Sword Qi adds long-range sword combat, multiple Sword Qi forms, special sword abilities, advanced Netherite Sword controls, and large-scale attacks.
Grapple & Bridge provides the movement and terrain-traversal system that complements Sword Qi particularly well.
Together, the two mods allow players to rapidly reposition, cross terrain, fight in the air, approach distant targets, and move through combat environments far more freely than with ordinary Minecraft movement.
Sword Qi is optional and is not required for Grapple & Bridge to function.
For an even cooler visual experience, YDM's Weapon Master is also recommended.
It improves the way weapons are visually displayed on the player and works particularly well when used together with Grapple & Bridge and Sword Qi.
YDM's Weapon Master is completely optional.
Grapple & Bridge does not include or redistribute YDM's Weapon Master.
Please download YDM's Weapon Master separately from its original creator's official project page.

Presentation.
Three separate mods, each fully usable on its own, but especially fun when used together.
The current release contains Simplified Chinese in some in-game HUD and status messages.
The core gameplay itself is not language-dependent.
Additional English localization may be added in a future update.
Grapple & Bridge is currently considered feature-complete in its present form.
This release represents the latest completed version of the mod, and there are currently no known unfinished features specifically waiting to be completed.
However, this does not mean that development has permanently ended.
Future updates may still be released if new ideas, improvements, compatibility changes, bug fixes, or additional features are developed later.
In short:
The mod is complete in its current form, but its future remains open.
Grapple & Bridge significantly changes player movement and can generate large permanent structures in a very short time.
Players should be aware that:
Back up important worlds before experimenting extensively with large-scale world modification.
