Auto Elytra
by brooke-ec
Auto Elytra equips an elytra in the chestplate slot on its own, so a player can start flying without swapping gear by hand.
What it does
When a player holds an elytra in the inventory, the client swaps it into the chestplate slot automatically and returns the previous chestplate when flight stops. Only the client needs the mod, so a server can run without it. Builds exist for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 1.20 – 1.20.4, and the Fabric API is required on Fabric and Quilt.
Key features
Automatic equip
The elytra is put on in the chestplate slot as soon as the player is ready to fly, without a manual swap.
Automatic restore
The chestplate that was worn before is put back when the elytra comes off, so the player keeps their armor.
Pair handling
An elytra kept in the inventory is used the same way, so flight works without rearranging gear.
