Momentum for Automobility: Unofficial Port
Momentum for Automobility: Unofficial Port changes how vehicles from Automobility accelerate, brake, steer and drift, and adds a compact speed HUD with cruise control.
What it does
Momentum needs Automobility: Unofficial Port and Fabric API to run, and it is built for the Fabric loader only. The server and every player need the mod installed. Matching builds cover 26.1 – 26.3, and the latest file is 1.0.0-beta.2+26.3 for 26.3, published on 2026-10-04 on the beta channel. The project is open source under the MIT License and has public source code and an issue tracker.
Driving feel is set through named tunes: Touring, Balanced and Sport, along with a Custom option that uses hand-tuned chassis values. Separate inputs handle the brake and the handbrake, several drift profiles change how the car slides and sounds, and camera response reacts to steering, braking, reversing and drifting. Cruise control holds a target speed and drops out when braking, drifting, reversing, leaving the seat or hitting a wall, with a Resume option that keeps the last target until the driver exits.
The server holds the authority over how vehicles handle, so steering, drift and cruise values apply to everyone on it. HUD and camera preferences stay on each client. Operators can inspect the state, reload the configuration and push a tune to connected players without restarting the server, using the momentum status, momentum reload and momentum sync commands.
Key features
