Disable Elytra
Completely disables the behaviour of the elytra
About this Mod
What it does
Completely disables the functionality of the elytra. (It only disables flying so you can still have the item)
Why?
In some cases, the elytra can completely invalidate other means of transport (horses, boats, minecarts, etc) so this mod should help with balancing.
There are of course other reasons why you might want to disable the elytra :)
