Description
Better Elytra
Better Elytra enhances Minecraft's gliding experience by introducing customizable boost presets, responsive speed controls, and critical safety features to keep you in the sky—and out of danger.
🌟 Short Summary
A lightweight client-side quality-of-life mod featuring customizable flight speed presets, dynamic sliders, crash proximity warnings, and low-durability safety alerts.
🚀 Features
⚡ Speed Presets & Custom Tuning
- 5 Flight Presets: Instantly toggle between Slow, Normal, Fast, Hyperspeed, and Custom.
- Fine-Tuned Control: Select the Custom preset to adjust your acceleration and maximum speed using precise drag sliders.
- Always-On Mode: Option to keep boost constantly active without needing to hold or toggle keys manually.
🛡️ Flight Safety Radar
- Crash Proximity Warning: Scans terrain in front of you while flying. Displays distance alerts on your action bar with pitch-adjusted audio warnings to prevent high-speed collisions.
- Low Durability Alert: Never accidentally fall out of the sky again. Triggers visual action-bar warnings and audio beeps as soon as your Elytra drops to 10 durability or lower.
🌐 Server & Multiplayer Safe
- Anti-Cheat Protection: Elytra boost automatically disables on multiplayer servers to prevent accidental anti-cheat flags or bans, while safety alerts remain fully active everywhere.
