Auto-Elytra-Switch
This mod switches between your elytra and chestplate for you.
About this Mod
Auto Elytra
Automatically swaps your elytra into your chest armor slot when you jump off a ledge and activates flight — then swaps your chestplate back when you land. No manual inventory management required.
✨ Features
Seamless swap
When you press jump while airborne, the mod finds an elytra in your inventory and equips it, replacing your chestplate. When you land, your chestplate is automatically restored.Multiplayer safe
Swaps are performed through proper inventory click packets, so it works correctly on servers.Fully configurable
Toggle the mod on/off at any time via the in-game config screen (requires ModMenu + Cloth Config).Client-side only
No server-side installation needed.
⚙️ How It Works
Hold an elytra anywhere in your inventory and wear your chestplate as normal.
When you leap off a cliff and press jump mid-air, Auto Elytra equips the elytra automatically so you can glide. The moment you touch down, your chestplate is put back — ready for combat.
