Great mod! However, I feel like the current speed configurations are way too fast and makes you zoom towards the wall without a chance to maneuver. Being able to go a bit slower to hook to other surfaces while airborne would be a better experience.

what if you made the cable decrease in blocks instead of by percentage? Just an idea I wanted to put out there

You mean like this config option?

Isn't that just the retracting speed of the hooks themselves? It even mentions it is client side. I tested it out at speed 5 and it does not seem to slow down the launching speed of the player. Just lightly tapping the hooks zooms the player across the place in an instant. It is more noticeable when hooking something far away.

Ok I see what you mean, you mentioned reeling in your initial comment which is what threw you off.

This "launching" is due to code which artificially reduces the cable length on latching a grapple by a few percents to indeed jerk the player to the latch point, making it feel more natural.
The problem was that this is relative to the cable length, so indeed, for long cable lengths this became quite a strong pull. For this reason I implemented a limit on this (see here).

Therefore, are you on the latest version? If so, it means something is still broken.

Yes. I am on version 2.0.3
