Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.22.0 - 1.22.2, potentially outdated):
alternativegliderimplementationreforged_1.0.3.zip 1-click install
Remake of Alternative Glider Implementation
Requires:
- InsanityLib Optional since 1.0.3 (VS 1.22.x)
This is a simple mod with the objective of applying retro game design to the glider.
This mod changes the following:
- Disables pitch affecting glide direction.
- Displays a new Glide Power bar when the glider is active, which can be hidden in the config file.
- While gliding:
- Glide Power increases forward speed and decreases downward speed.
- Holding the Walk forward key causes the player to dive.
- While diving, the player's downward speed increases.
- Downward speed is converted to Glide Power, up to a set conversion threshold.
- Holding the Walk backward key causes the player to brake.
- While braking, Glide Power, forward speed and downward speed all rapidly decrease.
- Breaking with a large amount of forward speed causes lift.
Upon running the mod, config files will be generated in the `AlternativeGliderImplementationReforged` folder.
Note: alternate control scheme settings are in server config for synchronization reasons (I currently have no plans on dealing with this)

Does this have/need compatibility with Mad Crow Glider?
Doesn't need any compatibility, Mad Crow Glider is a content only mod so it doesn't really interfere with the code changes from this mod.
(essentially it's just a vanilla glider but with a different model/texture, whereas this mod only touches the code behind the gliding speed and direction)
Thank you! Love the idea behind this mod. The gliding can be pretty lackluster in this game as it stands currently. So I can't wait until Ihave a glider to be able to try your mod
Version 1.0.2 of the mod works in singleplayer 1.22 just fine, but for multiplayer you need to install InsanityLib, otherwise you will crash.
Thanks for letting me know, fixed in new release.
Is this mod still working in 1.21?
EndlessTired, working as intended or I should say: working as the original mod worked for me.
(I plan to tweak the configuration a bit and exposing the variables in the config, in future update, values have been tweaked a bit and have been exposed more through the config)
Yo, I've never played with this mod before so I don't know whether or not it's working as intended, but the original said that if you brake with high power bar charge you generate lift, which doesn't seem to be happening, I barely go up by 5 blocks at most even from a 200 blocks dive :p
