About this Mod
Elytra Hopper is heavily inspired by Elytra Recast, but for Minecraft 26.1.x and 26.2.x.
If/when Elytra Recast updates, you should use it instead!
Features
- After opening your elytra, holding jump keeps it open after landing so you can hop around and build momentum.
- Landing in water can close your elytra so you can swim normally.
- Reduces jump cooldown while holding jump, with a configurable delay from 0 to 10 ticks.
- Includes a JSON config file.
- Includes Mod Menu support with a vanilla-style config screen.
- Adds optional unbound controls for toggling the mod, recast/hopping, and water-closing behavior.
