Ropeworks

Ropeworks adds a full set of rope-based tools for climbing, crossing gaps and getting around the world. Everything starts with craftable rope and builds from there.

Please note: this project is in very early beta, and bugs are expected. I am planning on open sourcing this project at a later stage.

Features

Ropes and ladders

• Rope and Rope Stick: plant a stick on a wall and lower rope piece by piece, or pull it back up.
• Rope Ladder: right-click a wall, or the top of a cliff edge, to roll a ladder down to the ground. It can hang free over overhangs, and you can extend it with another ladder.

Ziplines

• Zipline Posts and Rope: tie two posts together and ride the rope. Steeper lines are faster.
• Zipline Pulley: hold it while riding and right-click to switch between Standard, Brake and Boost. Heavy armor and a full inventory make you roll a little faster.
• Zipline Cart: hang a 27-slot crate on a rope, load it up and send it down the line.

Bridges and decoration

• Rope Bridges: place two bridge posts and connect them with bridge rope to build a walkable bridge.
• Rope Hooks: screw hooks into blocks, hang decorative rope between them and dangle lanterns from it. Hanging lanterns light up their surroundings.

Grappling hook

• Pull yourself to any block in range.
• Aim at a mob, player or dropped item to yank it. Light things fly to you, heavy things pull you to them, and things your size meet in the middle.

Rope arrows

• Rope Arrow: sticks a rope to a wall and drops it to the ground.
• Hook Arrow: hooks what it hits and reels it in.
• Grapple Arrow: pulls you to wherever it lands.
• Line Arrow: tie a Zipline Rope to a post, then shoot across a gap to plant the far post and finish the line.

And many more to come...
