Chicken Glider

Description

This plugin allows players to use Chickens to glide just like in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

It is solely dependent on Bukkit and should not break upon new CraftBukkit release.

NOTE: Still in progress. Currently the functionality is there. There is more features to add later.

HOW TO

1. Simply right-click a Chicken with nothing in your hand, and it will equip the chicken for gliding.
2. Then simply jump off things to glide.

NOTE: Normal jumping is not affected by gliding. You must leap off something

Features

• Gliding
• Blocks egg spawning from chickens that are riding the player.

Config

• glide_speed
  • How fast the player will move in their direction when gliding with a chicken.

• glide_drop
  • How fast the player will drop when gliding with a chicken.

Permissions

• chickenglider.glide
  • allows player to use chickens to glide

TODO

• Alleviate fall damage based upon glide_drop value.
• Item requirement (config defined)
• Player ride entity (not entirely sure yet since it deviates from the zelda idea)
• Extra flying entities.
• Particles for gliding players
• Fly mode for donators/admins that allow them to fly without having to use keys to move, just look (3D fly)
  • Command toggle for fly mode
• Commands to toggle glide if desired

BUGS

• Chicken rides very high above the player.
• Eggs spawned by chickens within the same block as a player that has a chicken glider, will despawn the egg.
