Precision movement for Vintage Story — configurable step height & speed, ceiling awareness, blacklist, and server enforcement.
QoLServer-EnforcedMovement Configuration
StepUp Advanced refines terrain traversal with live hotkeys, blacklist control, and optional server-side limits. It builds on the original StepUp concept with more configurability and multiplayer-friendly enforcement.
Core Controls
Configurable Step Height (0.2–2+ blocks).
Configurable Step Speed (0.5–2x).
Blacklist specific block codes to disable step-up near them.
Hotkey toggles and real-time adjustments.
New Movement Logic
Ceiling Guard: detects low ceilings to prevent micro-bumping.
Forward Ceiling Probe: predictive checks for fast movement.
Speed-Only Mode: let other mods own height; SUA manages speed.
Multiplayer & Admin
ServerEnforceSettings: clamp min/max, push config on join.
Disable client hotkeys where not permitted; clamp all changes to bounds.
Client+server blacklists merge; server list is globally enforced.
Controls — Keybinds
Insert — Toggle On/Off
Home — Reload Config
PageUp / PageDown — Step Height ↑ / ↓
Arrow Up / Arrow Down — Step Speed ↑ / ↓
Tip: combine Ceiling Guard + Forward Probe for smooth traversal under overhangs and trees.
Commands
Client
.sua — list client commands
.sua add — add targeted block to blacklist
.sua remove — remove targeted block from blacklist
.sua list — list blacklisted blocks
Server
/sua — list server commands
/sua add — add targeted block to server blacklist
/sua remove — remove targeted block from server blacklist
Server Enforcement
On join, clients receive server config; hotkeys can be disabled if not allowed.
All client changes are clamped between server min/max limits when enforced.
Server limits are validated and auto-corrected if out of bounds.
New in v1.2.0
Speed-Only Mode — let another mod manage height; SUA manages speed.
Migration: set SpeedOnlyMode = true to delegate height to other mods; use Reload Config (or relog) to switch reliably. Consider ServerEnforceSettings = true for global clamps.
Multiplayer includes a hardcoded (in older version) max step height of 2 blocks (configurable) to keep traversal sensible and avoid “cheat-like” behavior on servers that require the mod.
Credits: Original StepUp by CopyGirl. StepUp Advanced by Elocrypt.
Internals: cached field lookups, skip-same-value writes, and a small scratch position to reduce allocations.
Fixed
Cases where players snapped upward under flat overhangs despite adequate headroom.
Edge scenarios where legitimate climbs were blocked when a nearby ceiling was present.
Minor chat spam/duplication on repeated enforcement notifications.
New / Tuned Config Keys
ForwardProbeSpan — horizontal sweep width (blocks) when checking forward ceiling.
CeilingHeadroomPad — extra headroom margin (0.00–0.25 suggested) to avoid grazing ceilings.
ForwardProbeCeiling, RequireForwardSupport — still available; behavior refined for fewer false positives. (Disabled by default)
Notes & Tuning Tips
If you encounter conservative clamping under complex overhangs, try: increase CeilingHeadroomPad slightly (e.g., 0.05 → 0.10) or set ForwardProbeSpan to 0–1.
For debugging, temporarily disable ForwardProbeCeiling or RequireForwardSupport to isolate environment-specific terrain layouts.
Server operators: enforcement behavior unchanged — caps only bind when ServerEnforceSettings = true.
Ensure you delete your StepUpAdvancedConfig.json so it generates a new one with the new values to prevent any issues.
Thanks for the reports & test worlds — they directly shaped the ceiling-guard improvements in this release.
Added: Speed-only mode SpeedOnlyMode config to let other mods (e.g., XSkills) own step height while this mod only adjusts speed. Height hotkeys are disabled and height is not applied when enabled (requires relog or a config reload if allowed).
Added: Ceiling guard & forward probe Prevents “micro-bumping” into low ceilings or floating roofs ahead of you. Options: CeilingGuardEnabled, ForwardProbeCeiling, ForwardProbeDistance, RequireForwardSupport.
Added: Localization Translations for multi-language support. All are AI generated, please, you are welcome to submit your own lang file, I will gladly replace the AI generated Lang files.
Changed:Colorization and Formatting
Text has been reformatted and colorized for better readability
Changed: Clamping rules (client-side floor, server caps only when enforced)
Height hotkeys are clamped to a client floor (no negatives) and only capped at server max when ServerEnforceSettings = true.
Speed hotkeys have a client floor and respect server max only when enforced.
Fixed: Step speed doing “nothing” Now affects the actual elevate factor every tick even when the backing field is private; warns once if the game build exposes no compatible field (Harmony path still works).
Removed/Deferred: Experimental step-down logic The “snappy step-down” prototype was removed (collision/cache constraints). Might revisit later if the engine exposes safer hooks.
Notes / Migration
To let another mod manage height (e.g., XSkills), set SpeedOnlyMode = true. You’ll need to relog (or use the Reload hotkey if AllowClientConfigReload = true) for a reliable switch.
Server owners: set ServerEnforceSettings = true to push height/speed clamps to clients; otherwise clients use their local floors and are only limited on the low end.
Delete your VintagestoryData/ModConfig/StepUpAdvancedConfig.jsonand then load into the game world to generate a new config with the new additional features.
Once a new config is generated and you have restarted the game with the intitial settings you want everything should work fine.

When disabling StepUp, the default behaviour of being able to step up slabs wasn't possible.
In Singleplayer instances, most functions would not work properly if ServerEnforceSettings was false.
Multiplayer config would no sync with the client properly or update properly, sometimes causing CTDs.
Server clamping was forced in Singleplayer instances.
Notes
Server owners need to ensure that `AllowClientConfigReload` is equal to `false` in your config to prevent players from changing values beyond clamp limits. In Singleplayer, clamping is no longer present and is now only enforced in multiplayer instances.
Feedback
Please, report any bugs/crashes/problems or feature requests/ideas on the VS discord.
Block Blacklist Implementation: - Introduced a configurable block blacklist that allows players to specify blocks near which the step-up functionality is disabled. - The step height reverts to the default setting when the player is in proximity to any blacklisted blocks, enhancing control over movement mechanics.
Client-Side Commands for Blacklist Management: - Added the .sua add command: Players can target a block in the game world and execute this command to add the block's type to the blacklist dynamically. - Added the .sua remove command: Allows players to remove a block type from the blacklist by targeting the block and executing the command.
Real-Time Blacklist Detection: - Improved the detection mechanism to account for diagonal movements and corner cases, ensuring that the step height adjusts appropriately when moving near blacklisted blocks from any direction.
Bug Fixes: - Resolved an issue where the step height wouldn't adjust in real-time while the player was moving near blacklisted blocks. The system now continuously checks the player's proximity to blacklisted blocks, allowing for immediate adjustments.
Dynamic Hotkey Support: Hotkeys are now dynamically mapped using api.Input.HotKeys, making the mod fully compatible with user-customized keybindings.
Quality of Life Improvements
Prevent Repeated Actions:
Holding down the "Toggle StepUp" or "Reload Config" keys no longer causes repeated actions. These actions are now executed only once per key press, thanks to new state-tracking logic.
Improved Feedback for Step Height Adjustments:
Duplicate messages when holding the increment or decrement hotkeys (e.g., "Step height cannot exceed 2.0 blocks") have been eliminated. Messages are now displayed only when explicitly attempting to go beyond the limit.
Configuration Validation
The mod now automatically adjusts invalid values in the configuration file:
StepHeight values above the maximum (2.0) are clamped to the maximum.
StepHeightIncrement values below the minimum (0.1) are clamped to the minimum.
New Behavior for DefaultHeight: If DefaultHeight is set above the maximum or below the minimum, it is reset to the original default value (0.6).
Any invalid values are logged to inform users of the adjustments and to ensure consistency.
Compatibility
The mod is now compatible with Vintage Story v1.19.8 and may also work with earlier versions (not officially tested for versions older than v1.19.8).
💬Elocrypt , 48 minutes ago (modified 48 minutes ago)
WickedSchnitzel Added a new config setting for this, ensure that "ShowServerEnforcedNotice" is set to false. (It's true by default) You may have to initially regenerate the config (delete config and it will generate a new one) for the setting to show up in the config. Any future update from this one the config should automatically update.
KranKyKroK I believe the waiste-high or foot-high camera position is a vanilla problem. It happens to me a lot especially after sleeping. It it'll be like that for about a minute or half then snap up corrected by its own.
This mod seems to have a conflict with MoveLikeKaji (a climbing mod) that prevents this mod from working at all. Verified by disabling MoveLikeKaji. Is there a way to run both simultaneously so I can get the climbing functionality of MoveLikeKaji?
Could you add a setting to let us disable the chat info on join (server enforcement on). Some servers are using their own info on join which should not get pushed out of focus by mod infos.

/EDIT ok, it looks like it is trying to play some sound file for wood sound, likely was a wood block that got removed. Seems like it's this mod trying to predict sounds to play as you advance, even in fly+no clip mode. If I approach from stone side and click clear the blocks so this one is visible, I can click clear it, BUT if I fly at it from the room side, crashes every time, force to /tp in console, because client doesn't even load in before crash. Thankfully server sees you before you are "there". /edit
Howdy, getting client crash with this error any time I get near a null block 13243 from a removed mod. v 1.21.1 of VS and 1.2.1 of this mod. I have NO black listed blocks, verified. Even did a .sua remove before approaching it in creative. Crashes survival OR creative with admin rights.

Does not happen with this mod removed. Expected it was something with regard to the block checking, but turned that off, no good still.
Am I missing something with how to use this? I seem to have to hold sprint to move up steps. Walking forward does not do it automatically. I have tried increasing step height over 2 and no change.
Is there a way to make it so you only step up if you are moving forward? And if you are crouching the stepup is disabled? I would have thought the ForwardProbe settings would do that but I couldn't figure it out.
Are you using the latest version of StepUp Advanced? I cannot reproduce what you are experiencing. This mod doesn't do anything with the camera anyway, zoom on the other hand does.
💬KranKyKroK, Aug 26th at 12:02 AM (modified Aug 31st at 11:23 PM)
started new wrold in 1.21 stable with this and zoom mod enabled. camera was set at waist height in first person. disabled this mod and problem went away.
(Edit) disabled and re-enabled and works fine.
💬Elocrypt , Aug 17th at 7:31 AM (modified Aug 17th at 7:33 AM)
The error you are getting is from 1.2.0 or 1.8.0 if you are using either of those.. Those are for VS 1.21 only which is using NET8.
1.1.0 is the version you want to use, which is for VS 1.20 which is still on NET7.
I can confirm that 1.1.0 works pefrectly fine, I just downloaded a fresh copy and tested it to verify that it works with 1.20.12
If you don't delete 1.2.0 and try to download and use 1.1.0 its going to automatically try to use 1.2.0 because its technically a newer version, which is why you need to ensure you delete it.
For version 1.1.0 in the StepUpAdvancedConfig.jsonset this to true "EnableHarmonyTweaks": true,when you load the game and adjust, reload your game once and it should change properly afterwards. This should fix the issue you are having.
The_Revisionist If you are loading into a Singleplayer world, that is intended as its singleplayer and there doesn't need to be any clamping. If you are connecting to a server, the server should have "ServerEnforcedSettings": true then when you connect to that server ServerEnforcedSettings will automatically be applied with the clamping that was done in the configuration on the servers config.
Elocrypt Thanks, it works now. However, for some reason the ServerEnforceSettings variable resets to false in the config file every time I load into a world.
💬Elocrypt , Aug 12th at 11:25 PM (modified Aug 12th at 11:51 PM)
The_Revisionist Make sure that you delete the file in this directory (assuming you dont have a custom data folder) VintagestoryData\ModConfig\StepUpAdvancedConfig.json Once that has been deleted, you can enter the game world and a new file will generate with defaults. You then should close the game and edit/save the file with your initial settings you want and then you can join the game again and everything should function as it should from there.
Katilist The latest version 1.0.9 supports XSkills Steeplechaser with step speed included. Ensure `SpeedOnlyMode = True` in the config. You may have to delete your current stepupadvancedConfig.json for the new options to generate after the first load. Cheers!
Must-have mod if you ask me, but I was wondering if it'd be possible to add an option for a step *down feature. I seriously hate that if you miss a single step going down a staircase your character makes a hurt sound. Having a more compact staircase with blocks to hit your head on hurts less, but is just as bad for immersion and slows you down a slight bit. It's a minor inconvenience obviously so no sweat if it doesnt seem worth your time, I'm just curious.
Katilist I will look into trying to fix this, I do remember StepUp Advanced prevents XSkills stepheight changes. I want to make this compatible with XSkills, and this is on my todo list. Thank you for reminding me!
If I can use this on my server to increase the speed of stepping up (and only the speed), I might use it.
One of the most annoying aspects of VS is the blocky terrain, and stepping up in VS is so slow, losing forward momentum to go up one block.
However, I use Xskills that allows the step height to be altered, but not the speed. I'd like to continue to rely on Xskills, but simply have a faster upward movement.
The configs don't seem to be able to disable the alteration of step amount via keybind.
Been using this for a while and just had an idea for a branch mod: Tree Climbing. Nuts and fruits can be gained without destroying a whole tree, or you can escape some of the critters that want to eat you. One can also get a lay of the land or have access to your tree house early in the game.
Poggalogg I believe stepping up a block consumes stamina/satiety at the same rate walking/running does (depending if you are walking vs running when stepping up the block). This doesn't count as a jump, so you wouldn't be consuming stamina/satiety as if it were a jump.
Elocrypt I second that request. Also, a player accidentally reduced his step height to 0.2 and cannot climb stairs.
Disabling the mod does not revert settings to vanilla and player is stuck at that block height setting until StepUp is enabled and the setting reverted.
But even if you correct the setting in StepUp, the moment it is disabled, zap - back down to 0.2 step height.
Had to remove until this can be resolved. Removal did revert settings back.
So any suggestions on how to restrict control of settings to server side only?
Could you add an option to disable both step speed and height modification seperately. So that only the values an admin is defining in the config will apply and cannot be altered by the player.
WickedSchnitzel The commands are working. The only commands there are are '.sua add' to add the block you are holding to the block blacklist and '.sua remove' to remove the block you are holding from the block blacklist. The '.sua' command alone will only list the 'add' and 'remove' commands.
Mokradin I liked this feature idea, this has now been added in the latest release. I also added the `.sua add` and `.sua remove` commands to add/remove the block you are holding to/from the block blacklist.
If setting 2 or higher step height it should ask for server permission. Otherwise it should fall back on the client side code I don't see any issue with being able to step up 1 block and any server admins having an issue need to get a life. Thanks for posting the mod.
Cuttlebear I intentionally made it so that the server must have the mod in order for it to work on servers, so that it wouldn't act as a cheat (being able to climb up 2 blocks and increasing step speed may be contreversal for some servers).
Technically, there is a method to bypass the requirement for it to be on a server for it to work on a server.
Initially, I was going to release this as client sided but I wasn't sure how the community would respond.
Do I need to do anything specific to get this to work on my mp server? It works just fine in my SP game, but copying the mod over to my mp mod folder (along with all the other mods that work) makes this mod seem to not load. . .
TheKhopesh I am not sure why it would not be working for you. I've installed a fresh v1.20.0 (stable) and this mod seems to be working without any issues for me. Do you have any errors or logs?
If you are trying to use this mod on a server that doesn't have this mod installed, the mod will not work. This is intentional.
SaltyWater Which hotkey? If you hold down the hotkeys for incrementing the step height and speed they do change incrementaly based on the set increment value. The hotkeys for toggling stepup on/off and reloading the config aren't holdable.
SteAStro88 There is now a new version that is compatible with current and older versions! It also fixes some stuff, all changes are in the changelog. StepUp Advanced v1.0.2

For version 1.1.0 in the StepUpAdvancedConfig.json set this to true "EnableHarmonyTweaks": true, when you load the game and adjust, reload your game once and it should change properly afterwards.
This should fix the issue you are having.
1.1.0 feels much slower stepping up compared to 1.0.7, even though the speeds are the same. And now 1.0.7's download link doesn't work😒

Been using this for a while and just had an idea for a branch mod: Tree Climbing. Nuts and fruits can be gained without destroying a whole tree, or you can escape some of the critters that want to eat you. One can also get a lay of the land or have access to your tree house early in the game.

There is now Server enforced clamping, thank you for the feature request!

I believe stepping up a block consumes stamina/satiety at the same rate walking/running does (depending if you are walking vs running when stepping up the block).
This doesn't count as a jump, so you wouldn't be consuming stamina/satiety as if it were a jump.
Does stepping up a block consume the same amount of stamina/satiety as jumping up the same block?
Elocrypt I second that request. Also, a player accidentally reduced his step height to 0.2 and cannot climb stairs.
Disabling the mod does not revert settings to vanilla and player is stuck at that block height setting until StepUp is enabled and the setting reverted.
But even if you correct the setting in StepUp, the moment it is disabled, zap - back down to 0.2 step height.
Had to remove until this can be resolved. Removal did revert settings back.
So any suggestions on how to restrict control of settings to server side only?
Could you add an option to disable both step speed and height modification seperately. So that only the values an admin is defining in the config will apply and cannot be altered by the player.
Elocrypt I haven't notice

I have not noticed any performance differences, do you have performance differences between versions?
Since there is constant check for blacklisted blocks, does that affect performance notably compared to this feature being disabled? Thanks.

The commands are working. The only commands there are are '.sua add' to add the block you are holding to the block blacklist and '.sua remove' to remove the block you are holding from the block blacklist. The '.sua' command alone will only list the 'add' and 'remove' commands.
the .step command is still included but does not work
Elocrypt This is great, thank you !
edit: It works very fine, thank you so much !

I liked this feature idea, this has now been added in the latest release. I also added the `.sua add` and `.sua remove` commands to add/remove the block you are holding to/from the block blacklist.
If setting 2 or higher step height it should ask for server permission. Otherwise it should fall back on the client side code I don't see any issue with being able to step up 1 block and any server admins having an issue need to get a life. Thanks for posting the mod.
Could you add a block blacklist config to this mod ? I like this mod, but i want to blacklist some blocks like chests, table.

I intentionally made it so that the server must have the mod in order for it to work on servers, so that it wouldn't act as a cheat (being able to climb up 2 blocks and increasing step speed may be contreversal for some servers).
Technically, there is a method to bypass the requirement for it to be on a server for it to work on a server.
Initially, I was going to release this as client sided but I wasn't sure how the community would respond.
Here is a poll for this matter on my mod page in the Vintage Story discord: https://discord.com/channels/302152934249070593/1331031307379146814/1331050125631426664
Do I need to do anything specific to get this to work on my mp server? It works just fine in my SP game, but copying the mod over to my mp mod folder (along with all the other mods that work) makes this mod seem to not load. . .

I am not sure why it would not be working for you. I've installed a fresh v1.20.0 (stable) and this mod seems to be working without any issues for me.
Do you have any errors or logs?
If you are trying to use this mod on a server that doesn't have this mod installed, the mod will not work. This is intentional.
The mod isn't working for me now that the 1.20.0 official release is out.
Elocrypt
Thank you! :)

Sorry about that, I forgot to disable debugging. I re-released the current version without debugging, just redownload it replace the old one.
For some reason, your mod keeps creating harmony.log.txt on my Desktop... :D How do I get rid of that? :D

Which hotkey? If you hold down the hotkeys for incrementing the step height and speed they do change incrementaly based on the set increment value.
The hotkeys for toggling stepup on/off and reloading the config aren't holdable.
Gabitzu
Thank you for requesting a feature!
Thank you for the step up speed config!
Amazing mod! Could you add a configuration option to make the key holdable instead of toggleable?
Gabitzu
I have added the ability to configure your step up speed in the newest version, although this feature only works for v1.20.0 and up.
Add version to zip name, please
Could the step up speed be configurable? Thanks
