Better Step

A Fabric server-side and single-player mod that improves player stepping behavior when moving across uneven terrain.

The mod improves movement across block-height changes by adding custom step-up and step-down handling.

Step-up behavior:

Allows players to step up even when they are not fully grounded
Helps reduce movement blocking when colliding with small ledges or uneven terrain
Does not trigger while the player is flying
Only applies to player movement

Step-down behavior:

If the player moves forward without hitting an obstacle, the mod checks whether there is a reachable lower surface within step height
If a valid lower surface is found, the player steps down smoothly
If no reachable surface is found, the mod does not force the player downward
In non-creative modes, step-down height is limited by the player's safe fall distance
In creative mode, step-down is treated as safe

Safety rules:

Survival-like players will not automatically step down farther than their safe fall distance allows
Creative players are considered safe and may step down up to their step height
Flying players do not trigger air step-up
