No Combat Elytra
by JohnSeagull
No Combat Elytra stops a player from flying away from a fight by blocking elytra use for a set time after the player is attacked.
What it does
After a player takes damage from an attack, the mod keeps the elytra from opening for a configurable cooldown. The timer counts only ticks without being attacked, so a player who keeps fighting cannot use the wings to escape. Once the cooldown ends, the player can fly again.
Only the server needs the mod for its rules to apply, and players can join without installing it. Installation requires Fabric API and Mod Menu on Fabric for 26.1.2. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for 1.21.11 and 26.1.2 across four release versions, with the latest file 1.1-26.1 for 26.1.2 from 2026-07-14.
Key features
Cooldown after attacks
The elytra stays unusable until the player has gone a set number of ticks without being attacked.
Toggle without restart
The mod can be switched on or off while the server runs, without a restart.
Toggle and completion messages
Messages can appear when the mode is toggled and when the cooldown finishes, with custom text for the completion notice.
In-game configuration
Operators can change settings through a GUI, or edit the JSON configuration file directly.

How it compares
Elytra Combat Nerf is server-side only and is published for 1.21.11, under the MIT License, but it is not open source. ElytraSwimFix is open source under the MIT License and works on client and server for 1.20.1 – 26.3, so every player needs it as well. Extra Elytra covers 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 on client and server under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

What the author says
All functionallity is done on the server. If an operator has it installed on their client, they may modify the configuration through a GUI. If you do not want to use the GUI, simply open its config JSON file and make your edits there. Note: modifying configuration through JSON will require a restart of the server
