Step

Step automatically climbs blocks up to a configurable height without requiring a jump. In vanilla, players can step up single blocks but must jump for taller obstacles. Step extends this to arbitrary heights.

What it does

Step modifies the client-side step height — the maximum block height the player can walk up without jumping. Vanilla default is 0.6 blocks. Step can raise this to any value. Configurable options:

• Height — maximum step height in blocks.
• Mode — instant step, smoothed, or packet-based.
• Reverse — automatically step down.

Client support

Server compatibility

• Hypixel — Restricted. Step heights above 1 block may be flagged.
• 2b2t — Permitted. No anti-cheat active.
• CubeCraft — Restricted. Sentinel validates position changes per tick.

Detection behavior

Step is generally less detectable than Speed or Fly because the movement it produces is close to vanilla. Detection focuses on:

• Step height beyond vanilla. Climbing more than one block without a jump is unusual.
• Position deltas. Sudden Y changes without a corresponding jump packet.

Step heights up to 1.5 blocks are rarely flagged. Heights above 2 blocks draw attention on servers with position validation.

Known limitations

• Step does not work on non-solid blocks or fluids.
• Some servers reset step height on login, requiring re-application.
• Step combined with Speed creates movement that is easier to detect than either module alone.
