Sneaking

Sneaking is a feature introduced in the 1st Seecret Saturday update on September 18th, 2010 (Alpha 1.1.1). While holding the sneak key (default is ), the player enters sneaking mode. Sneaking was originally called crouching; however, the player's hitbox doesn't change from the normal standing height. Mobs still notice players in sneak mode, despite that there are no foot step noises.

Sneaking prevents players from falling one or more blocks, making it primarily useful for building horizontally outwards from high ledges by looking over the lip. However, if the sneak button is released while beyond the edge of a block, the player will fall down. Additionally, the player can still dismount blocks while sneaking by jumping over the block's edge.

On a Macintosh computer, changing the sneaking hotkey to allows the player to toggle between walking and sneaking, thus allowing the player to sneak without having to hold down a key. This can be done on a Windows system by pressing while holding down the sneak hotkey. This will freeze the game temporarily; to resume the game release both keys, then press and release again. To revert to normal walking, press and release the sneak hotkey again. Bringing up the inventory or menu will revert the status to walking, as will pressing the chat hotkey or interacting with a furnace, crafting bench, or dispenser. This method works in both windowed and fullscreen mode. (Note: this applies to other commands too, like walking or jumping.)

Also, if the sneak hotkey is pressed at EXACTLY the same time as the chat hotkey, then the player will be crouching in chat. This is very useful if you want to talk but remain hidden from players, because when chat is activated the mouse is released.

Also, when you are sneaking, you can still jump. This means that you can jump both up and down block levels. However, beware that your air speed is reduced while sneaking and jumping, and you will suffer normal fall damage when jumping down too many blocks

Effects

 * The character moves slower, at a speed of about 1.31 meters/second. Moving diagonally will allow the player to move slightly faster, but not at full speed.
 * The character bends down one-eighth of a block. This can be viewed using.
 * No sound is made when sneaking.
 * Players cannot walk off blocks. (edges)
 * Crops won't be trampled.
 * The camera angle lowers slightly.
 * Other players in multiplayer cannot see your name through a solid Block.
 * In multiplayer your name will be slightly darker than normal.
 * As of Beta 1.4, If you sneak on a ladder, you will grab the ladder and you will not slide down the ladder. Mining speed is still decreased by a factor of 5.

Bugs

 * It is possible to fall off certain geometries, even while sneaking:
 * If, while sneaking along the edge of a block, you move onto stairs or a step, you will fall.
 * If you sneak into a corner to a hole at a certain angle, you will fall.
