[Suggestion] Hover mode (lock flight) keybind
p455w0rd opened this issue ยท 3 comments
Okay, so you've implemented my Draconic Hoe suggestion =] (Thank You ^_^) So now I have another request. I haven't posted this issue until now for two reasons:
- Most mod authors just shoot down suggestions so they can concentrate on bugfixes.
- I really figured it would have been implemented by now.
I'm stuck using all but the best piece of Draconic armor because it's such a hassle to open the config GUI and click the "Lock Flight" button every time I want to enable/disable this feature. I'm stuck using the not-so-OP Flux-Infused Jetplate just for this feature.
P.S. I hope you get the cat issue resolved ASAP. I'd make a commit, but I'm not familiar with that library/API.. =P
OOps i meant to reply to this 4 days ago but must have git distracted by something...
Ok so my question is why do you use that feature? There was really only one reason i implemented that feature in the first place and that was because if you logged out while flying when you log back in you would no longer be flying and fall to the ground which would be a big issue if for example you live in a void world so i added that as a sort of safety feature.
I have since found a way around the original problem so now if you log out while flying you will still be flying when you log back in. This makes the feature fairly useless in my opinion.
Vertical speed is decelerated while hovering, which can be a nice thing to have on the fly. With the jetpack, it's bound to my 'R' key and is probably the 2nd most used key (save for normal movement keys) that I use. I guess as far as DE is concerned, it's just nicer to have to hit 'R' once rather than to rely on constantly double-tapping the spacebar (this is just really obnoxious in my opinion). I understand if you don't feel like doing it dude. I just figured with the code for keybinds and hover via double-tap already implemented, it wouldn't be that difficult or take too much of your time. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
Edit: The vertical speed I'm referring to is when I'm doing small movements, like only trying to go up or down a single block or half a block. With DE, my option is to go into the GUI, adjust movement speed to be slower, move vertically, go back into gui and re-adjust for normal vertical movement speed.
