SnapTap
A lightweight, client-side Fabric mod that adds Snap Tap (SOCD – Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions) movement to Minecraft.
What it does
In vanilla Minecraft, pressing two opposing movement keys at the same time cancels them out — hold A and tap D, and your character simply stops. SnapTap changes that: the most recently pressed key wins.
- Hold A (strafe left), then press D without releasing A → you instantly strafe right
- Release D → you go back to strafing left, no need to re-press A
The same logic applies to W / S (forward / backward). This gives you cleaner, more responsive direction changes with zero dead time between inputs.
Features
- Works on both horizontal (A / D) and vertical (W / S) movement axes
- Tracks the last pressed key on each axis and prioritizes it
- Extremely lightweight — a single client-side mixin, no config screens, no overhead
- No key remapping required; uses your existing movement controls
Requirements
- Minecraft 26.1.2
- Fabric Loader 0.18.4 or newer
- Fabric API
Installation
- Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 26.1.2
- Place Fabric API and SnapTap in your
modsfolder - Launch the game — that's it
Important note
SnapTap is client-side only and is intended for singleplayer and your own servers. SOCD / Snap Tap movement is considered an unfair advantage on many multiplayer servers and may be detected by anti-cheat systems or violate server rules. Please check the rules of any server before using it. Use responsibly.
