About the Broken Wings mod
Take, these broken wings, and learn to fly again... using more interesting methods...
Broken Wings is a small, simple* mod that allows packmakers to disable creative-mode style flight in certain dimensions.
*ok its not really that simple anymore
The default config options disable flight in dimension 7, the default dimension ID of the Twilight Forest.
Additional configuration options are available:
- Choose the dimension IDs that flight is allowed in, disallowed in, or blanket-ban flight in all dimensions.
- Choose whether Elytra flight or wings from the Wings mod count as flying.
- Many countermeasures to enable and disable: Elytra flight, Wings mod, arbitrary items and armor pieces, arbitrary baubles...
- Add items, armor pieces, and Baubles as "bypass keys", which allow players to fly despite any rules in place. Bypass keys can work per-dimension.
The mod can also send messages to players when their flight is cancelled, and/or create a message in the server log.
This work is dedicated to the public domain.
