About this Mod
Requires Gliders by Jeryn (duh) to work properly.
It's also compatible (and in fact first intended to be used) with Farmer's Delight Refabricated
If you're like me then you may have thought "wow, gliders are so cool, i wish minecraft had em". then you might've stumbled upon Gliders; great animations, models & spritework, cool features like hot air lifting upwards & so much care behind the project.
You download it, check what is it you need to get your first glider ASAP, and you're greeted to the sight of 15 leather and 12 paper just to get your basic glider going. Fine. you collect the materials, fly around for some time and it breaks??? yeah no, that's too much.
This datapack simply adds a much cheaper way to craft your average glider, hope you enjoy!
This is a personal datapack that I'm looking to share. It's not meant to attack the original mod developers, just to adjust the balancing to my own liking
