by EnderElite99

ElytraS lets a player swap an elytra into the chestplate slot and back with one key press, without opening the inventory.

What it does

Holding an elytra in the inventory takes the chestplate slot, so the wings can be worn over armor only when needed. ElytraS switches the two items through a key bind, which defaults to R, and the swap works without opening the inventory screen. Both an elytra and a chestplate have to be in the inventory for the swap to have something to exchange. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and it is published for Fabric alone, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.4 as the single build. The code is under the MIT License but the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Chestplate and elytra swap

    One key press exchanges the elytra in the chestplate slot with the chestplate kept in the inventory.

  2. Adjustable key bind

    The swap key is R by default and can be changed in the controls settings like other key binds.

  3. No inventory screen

    The swap runs from the key bind alone, so the player keeps moving and does not open the inventory.
