Flight Speed ( flyspeed ) 🔗

Luanti mod for changing the flight speed on-the-fly, using the /flyspeed command.

Original mod by ROllerozxa.

Optimized by Deedee Daydream 2025.

Changelog / Improvements 🔗

  • Optimized Server Performance: Rewrote the globalstep loop to use a state check. The original code sent a physics update to the server every single tick (approx. 20 times/second) for every player. The new code only sends updates when the player actually transitions between flying and walking, significantly reducing unnecessary network traffic and server load.

  • Fixed Downward Flight Physics: Removed the velocity check (velocity.y >= 0) that caused the speed boost to disable whenever a player flew downwards. Flight speed is now consistent regardless of vertical direction (ascending, hovering, or diving).

  • Memory Cleanup: Added a garbage collection check (register_on_leaveplayer) to clear player data from the temporary state table when they disconnect.

Supported Languages 🔗

  • English (en) - Default
  • Spanish (es)
  • Swedish (sv)
  • German (de) new
  • French (fr) new
  • Russian (ru) new
  • Portuguese (pt_BR) new

Usage 🔗

Use /flyspeed 2 or /flyspeed 3, etc. to double, triple or whatever speed you wish to fly. Use /flyspeed 1 to return to default speed. Enjoy!

    Easy to Use

    Lightweight, smooth action, and very easy to use. I never tried the original, but this is nice enough to become a standard utility for me. It makes it so much more pleasant to fly around to test mapgen mods.

    Good aid to moderation

    It worked very well, it will be useful for me to move around my server faster. It's possible to set speeds such as 10, 20, 100... I haven't tried 1000 yet :D

    Mostly useful on a simple singleplayer

    The physics speed modification doesn't use player_monoids, making it incompatible with other mods changing the speed. For some reason it runs every globalstep (if it's done to make sure that the speed doesn't get overwritten, player monoids covers that too). Also, the fly state detection is very simple (if you fall it thinks you're flying).

    The mod description is fancier than the code, and the mod does only thing so one would expect it to do it well. If you only need to change your speed in a very simple server this could work, but so would a Chatgpt query nowadays basically, so thumbs down.

    Very useful.

    As someone who makes mapgens, this is very handy to have, just because I can change the speeds to whatever I need for flying around the world. Great work! Very useful.
