Aeroboots (Slow Fall Boots)
by sacdj
Aeroboots is an equipment mod for boots that cancel fall damage by applying the slow falling effect while worn.
What it does
Wearing the boots gives the player slow falling, so a drop from height ends without the usual fall damage. The mod is built as a datapack and ships loader files for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Only the server needs it; players join without installing anything. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Fall damage negated
Wearing the boots applies the slow falling effect, which removes damage from falls.
Datapack recipe
The boots are added to the vanilla game through a datapack, so they fit a survival world without other content.
Adventure and utility use
Players who want to descend cliffs or deep caves without taking damage can rely on the boots for travel.
