Latest release (for outdated Vintage Story v1.20.1 - v1.20.3):
AngelBelt-1.20-1.6.0.zip  1-click install


Behold the Angel Belt.

Version 1.6.0 - Game v1.20 Chargable Overhaul

So the Chargable functionality is no longer defined by the Item it is now defined by a config file on the server.
Find the angelbelt_config.json file in your ModConfigs directory after loading a world with the mod enabled once. In there you will see a variable to enable the Chargable feature (RequiresCharge) as well as a variable to control how much cost per second of charge is used when flight it enabled.

Keep in mind, the cost goes up as the square of the speed multiplier. Speeding across the landscape will be VERY costly.

This feature is disabled by default (as I don't have Vintage Engineering updated yet, for one) so server owners will have to edit the config once it's generated.

I'm open to ideas on how to have durablity used without powered charging. Perhaps an expensive recipe to reset the durability?

Belt will not operate if out of charge. Flexible Games is not responsible for misuse of Angel Belt or anyone falling out of the sky due to mismanagement of Angel Belt charge. Angel Belt is provided "as is" and any alterations, abuse, or wear is strictly the responsibility of the user.

 

Do you like building but not the scaffolding work that goes along with it? Did you rely on the Angel Ring from the game-not-to-be-mentioned? 

Then you're in for a treat! Craft the Angel Belt, place it in the belt-slot in your character window and hit "R". You'll hear a sound and be able to fly around like a bird. Careful on hitting R again, if you are too high, you will fall and hurt yourself. Flexible Games can't be held liable for injuries while using the Angel Belt.

While the Angel belt is enabled (i.e. you can fly) here are the other controls to better make building and exploring a snap!

  • PgUp = +1 Move Speed
  • PgDown = -1 Move Speed
  • F3 = Cycle Axis Lock (Y axis is up and down...)
  • Home = Reset all modifiers
  • Alt+PgUp = +0.1 Move Speed
  • Alt+PgDown = -0.1 Move Speed

Careful with that move speed, too fast and who knows what could happen! You will get a chat-window notification when you change these values so you can find those that work best with you.

And don't worry, if you set them, disable the Belt then re-enable the belt your previous settings will be restored.

I love making mods, please consider some sort of support for me if you enjoy them. At the very least, check out my channel:

Fly speed can be adjusted.

I could look into having config options for max speed. But exploration can be limited using the charge feature, where you'd have to recharge the belt in the Vintage Engineering charger.

💬 Bhop1980, Apr 4th at 4:05 PM

Is it at all possible to limit the fly speed? Or is it configuarable? I want it to still be a decent option to use for building and such but not a cheaty sort of way to explore.

💬 Buggi , Feb 18th at 9:42 PM

Yeah, the electricity folks are doing their own thing.

I could add a simple temporal gear recipe to 'recharge' the belt, sure, what do you think the cost should be? 1? 2? 8?

💬 VermilionStars, Feb 17th at 9:29 PM

Maybe as an alternative to charging the belt with Vintage Engineering, you could make Angel Belt chargeable by adding additional temporal gears, similar to how the vanilla Night Vision Mask works?

💬 TheoTheNeko, Jan 30th at 1:46 AM

every time i try to go and fly i can hear the sound and i can go and get what feels like it trying to fly, but it then reverts back to walking and all. Cant seem to really fly much at all for some reason.

i think it may have something to do with the elecricity addon mod having armor that allows flight as well. Ive seperated the keybinds for the flight but it may go and be making it so it thinks you need the charge from the other mod for it to work

 

edit: after testing removing the electricity addon it works as intended. Seems like it might be something to bring over to their end or that maybe

💬 Jose_Luis, Jan 29th at 5:06 AM

Men, i love this mod, can´t live without it, my first priority in a new world is always craft this belt before being built anything. Thank you, now,  the update is complete!

💬 Buggi , Jan 20th at 6:51 PM

Now that the new version is stable, I'm going through all my mods and updating as needed.
Any mods that require code (DLL file) should require a recompile at the very least. Sometimes that's all that's needed.

💬 Pamela, Jan 18th at 6:37 PM

Will this work in 1.20?

💬 Buggi , Sep 26th 2024 at 6:00 PM

The problem with that RenayEdor is the belt would have to calculate it's distance from all zone markers in the world every tick.
So, that implies you have a system to track placed markers in the world.
Then the distance calculate every tick for each marker.
That's a LOT of overhead for something so simple as this is intended to be.

💬 RenayEdor, Jul 13th 2024 at 3:34 AM

Possibly asked be possible to further "limit" the belt by adding something like a big shiny pillar of light that totally isn't remenicent of another game that shall not be mentioned, in which the ring belt can work, so people aren't just making a belt and all around the place, make it more of a building only tool?

💬 Buggi , Apr 9th 2024 at 10:34 PM

Once I get the charger working in Vintage Engineering I will update this to require power charging to use (optional, setting in config of course).

Need some feedback for how long a 'full charge' should last. Thoughts?

💬 RIVVION, Apr 6th 2024 at 3:22 PM

Does this belt have options to turn on item use durability and maximum airtime before cooling down?
I would love to aquire this in survival without it being completely overpowered.

I'd like it if i could use this like the rocket boots from terraria for some added utility without utterly trivialising gameplay!

💬 Buggi , Mar 30th 2024 at 4:22 AM

Are you flying very very fast?

💬 Maestro, Mar 28th 2024 at 2:33 PM

UPDATE: removed the log below, because this isn't your issue. The first few times were only with the Angel Belt, but I've since had this happen 3 times when I hadn't used it in several minutes. Not an Angel Belt issue.

When flying with the Angel Belt overland (ie, not "normally loaded areas"), I occasionally get a CTD that has something to do with fruit trees.  I only bring this here because it *only* happens when using an Angel Belt.

 

💬 Buggi , Feb 16th 2024 at 9:22 PM

How are you claiming the area?

💬 adres4t, Feb 4th 2024 at 2:12 PM

would it be possible to limit usage of this belt only to your claimed area?

 

💬 Buggi , Jan 26th 2024 at 5:14 PM

If I do a config, I'd add a ton of settings for all the tools as they are under the same mod umbrella. That kind of thing takes a lot longer than updating to new version.

💬 zackadiax24, Jan 17th 2024 at 4:35 AM

Is there any chance we can get a config to limit the maximum speed?

💬 Versora, Jan 10th 2024 at 5:31 PM

I love this mod. Negates the need for creative mode flight. Any chance this will be updated to 1.19?

💬 Buggi , Oct 17th 2023 at 9:45 PM

Hopefully you've migrated to 1.18 by now. There's no reason not to use the latest version of the game and you can't expect mod authors to back-test their mods to previous versions of the game. It's a lot of extra work and would require mod authors to keep around all the API DLL files for every version of the game.

💬 Sodyaler, Apr 12th 2023 at 7:46 PM

Would it be possible to fix the axis lock for 1.17? I tried the 1.18 version on 1.17 but it's throwing this error each time I hit R to enable flight or to change the axis lock. The 1.17 version works fine other than the axis lock not working

Updated to 1.18 and found and fixed the FreePlaneLock feature. Thanks Chervial for reporting.

💬 Buggi , Mar 30th 2023 at 6:15 PM

@Chervial Do you have another mod that uses the same hot-key? It should certainly cycle through the modes. Try remapping the key and trying that.

💬 Chervial, Jan 23rd 2023 at 9:10 AM

Having a bit of an issure with the Axis Lock, I hit the hot key but it just says "Flight plane axis locked to:X" and nothing changes. Hitting the hotkey multiple times doesn't seem to cycle through the different axis 

Great mod, thanks for sharing

💬 Buggi , Aug 31st 2022 at 7:40 PM

Mod updated for 1.17! Enjoy flying around in the new version!

💬 Buggi , Jan 11th 2022 at 3:45 AM

v1.2 Updated to support 1.16
Attempted a fix for it 'forgetting' your movement speed multiplier in my endless hunt for why that sometimes reset before.

💬 NPCFanatic, Nov 7th 2021 at 5:12 AM

yo! this is awesome! glad to see this over in VS 😄
