Simple Elytra Bounce

by Living A Better life

Simple Elytra Bounce changes what happens when a glider hits a Slime Block, so the impact sends the player back into flight instead of causing crash damage.

FabricNeoForgeQuiltClient and serverMIT License26.1.1 – 26.2

What it does

Gliding with Elytra into a Slime Block reflects the flight velocity rather than ending it, and the kinetic damage from the crash is negated. A bounce can be sustained and chained, so a player who keeps hitting Slime Blocks can build up a series of large bounces. Firework rockets used during a bounce are handled so that the boost does not fight the bounce.

Bounce strength is adjustable through a config file. The bounceMultiplier value sets the speed multiplier applied on impact, and values above 1.0 speed the bounce up. minBounceSpeed sets the minimum incoming velocity needed to trigger a bounce, and giveBoostOnBounce adds an extra boost on each bounce. The mod also makes Slime Blocks act as bouncy surfaces for flying players.

Simple Elytra Bounce requires Fabric API. It runs on the client and the server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Slime bouncing

    Impacting a Slime Block while gliding reflects the velocity back, letting the flight continue.

  2. Zero kinetic damage

    The damage normally caused by a crash into a Slime Block is removed when the bounce succeeds.

  3. Firework rocket physics

    A rocket used while bouncing boosts the glider without working against the bounce.

  4. Configurable bounce values

    Speed multiplier, minimum trigger velocity and bounce boost can be changed in the config file.

Questions

Yes. Fabric API is required, and it is needed on Fabric builds of the mod.

Does the server need the mod?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Can the bounce be made stronger or weaker?

Yes. The bounceMultiplier, minBounceSpeed and giveBoostOnBounce values in the config file control the strength and trigger of the bounce.
