Elitra Swap
by lord1906
Elitra Swap lets a player switch between an Elytra and a chestplate with one key press, by default mouse button 4.
What it does
Holding an Elytra and a chestplate in the same slot is handled by a single keybinding. Pressing it swaps the two pieces of equipment, so a player does not need to open the inventory mid-flight or during a fight. The default bind is mouse button 4, and the key can be changed in the in-game controls settings.
The mod is useful in survival mode, where a player may be gliding and suddenly need armor to engage in combat, or the reverse. It is a client-side only mod, so only the player installing it needs it, and servers run without it. Fabric API is required for it to load.
Builds cover 1.18.2 – 1.21.11 on Fabric only, with the latest file, 1.0.4-1.21, targeting 1.21.11. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
