JJElytraSwap Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start using the elytra swap feature?
Equip an elytra in your chestplate slot and a regular chestplate in your inventory. When you jump and press spacebar while airborne, the mod will automatically swap them so you can fly without losing your armor protection.
Do I need to have the chestplate in a specific inventory slot?
No, the mod will find your chestplate anywhere in your inventory and swap it with the equipped elytra. Just make sure you're carrying both items before taking flight.
What happens when I land? Does it swap back automatically?
The mod only swaps when you activate elytra mid-air by pressing spacebar. When you land and stop flying, you'll need to manually swap back to your chestplate, or the mod can be configured to handle this automatically depending on your settings.
Can I use this mod with enchanted chestplates?
Yes, enchantments on your chestplate are preserved during the swap. The mod simply exchanges the two pieces without affecting their enchantments or durability.
Does the elytra swap work if my inventory is full?
No, you need at least one free inventory slot for the swap to occur. If your inventory is completely full, the mod cannot perform the exchange.
Will this mod work with other mods that modify elytra or armor?
The mod is designed to be lightweight and compatible with most other mods, but conflicts can occur with mods that heavily modify elytra mechanics or inventory handling. Check compatibility notes if you're using multiple armor or flight-related mods.
What if the swap isn't working when I press spacebar?
Make sure you're actually airborne when pressing spacebar, you have both an elytra and chestplate in your inventory, and you have at least one free slot. If it still doesn't work, verify the mod is properly installed and enabled.
Can I disable the mod temporarily without uninstalling it?
Yes, most mod loaders allow you to disable mods through their configuration menu or by removing the mod file from your mods folder and restarting the game.
Does this mod affect my flying speed or elytra durability?
No, the mod only handles equipment swapping and does not modify elytra flight mechanics, speed, or durability consumption.
Can I swap back to my chestplate automatically when I stop flying?
This depends on the mod's configuration options. Check your mod settings to see if there's an option to auto-swap when you land or stop flying.
