About this Mod
Purpir ElytraSwap
Purpir ElytraSwap is a client-side Fabric mod that makes switching between an Elytra and a chestplate faster and more convenient.
What It Does
With a single keybind, the mod swaps your currently equipped chest item with a matching item from your inventory.
- If you are wearing an Elytra, it will look for a chestplate and equip it.
- If you are wearing a chestplate or your chest slot is empty, it will look for an Elytra and equip it instead.
Why Use It
This mod is useful in survival, PvP, exploration, and any situation where you often switch between flying and armor protection.
Instead of opening your inventory and moving items manually, you can swap between mobility and defense with one key press.
