MIMESIS - BetterJump

🛟 Need help or found a bug? Get support at support.doodesch.de.

Makes jumping in Mimesis actually useful - the stock jump is near-useless for getting around, so BetterJump retunes it (stronger configurable jump plus a brief forced-airborne window) to clear gaps and obstacles reliably.

Features

Retunes your local player's jump so it is actually useful for map traversal (the default jump is near-useless).
Configurable upward jump velocity (default 5.2 units/second) - raise it for higher, stronger jumps.
Configurable "force unground" window after takeoff that keeps you airborne briefly so the game does not instantly re-detect the ground, improving jump responsiveness (default 0.08s).
Affects only your own avatar and only triggers when you jump from the ground - other players are unaffected.
Single Enabled toggle to switch the mod on/off without uninstalling, plus an optional DebugLogs switch for troubleshooting.
Uses your normal jump key - no input rebinding.

Requirements

Component	Version
MIMESIS	0.3.0 (current Steam build)
MelonLoader	0.7.3+
MimicAPI	Required - NeoMimicry/MimicAPI

BetterJump reads private jump and ground state through MimicAPI and will not function without it. Installing through a mod manager pulls in MimicAPI (NeoMimicry-MimicAPI-0.3.0) and MelonLoader automatically.

Installation

Recommended: install with a Thunderstore mod manager (r2modman or Gale). It installs MelonLoader and MimicAPI for you - just click Install.
Manual:
1. Install MelonLoader 0.7.3+ into MIMESIS.
2. Place both BetterJump.dll and MimicAPI.dll into MIMESIS/Mods/.
3. Launch the game once to generate the configuration file at UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg.

Configuration

Stored in UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg under the BetterJump category.

Option	Description	Default	Values/Range
`Enabled`	Enable BetterJump functionality. When disabled, the mod does not modify jump behavior.	`true`	`true` / `false`
`JumpVelocity`	Upward speed applied when a jump starts (units/second). Higher values result in stronger jumps.	`5.2`	Any value `>= 0` (negative values are clamped to `0` at runtime)
`ForceUngroundTime`	Seconds to keep the avatar airborne before the next ground check can succeed. Prevents the game from immediately detecting the ground after a jump, improving responsiveness.	`0.08`	Any value `>= 0.01` (clamped to a minimum of `0.01s`; the effective hold is at least `0.02s` at jump time)
`DebugLogs`	Enable detailed debug logging for troubleshooting jump behavior.	`false`	`true` / `false`

Usage

There is no keybind - just use your normal in-game jump input. BetterJump hooks the game's jump and ground-check logic, so jumping simply feels stronger and more responsive.

Raise JumpVelocity for higher jumps; adjust ForceUngroundTime if jumps feel cut short.
Changes take effect on game (re)launch.
Effects apply only to your own avatar, so the mod is safe in multiplayer - it never affects other players.
