TeraWings

Description
A mod that attempts to recreate wings from the game "terraria" in the world of starbound with sprites directly extracted from terraria and identical flying mechanics.

Currently the mod includes: Nebula, Sunflare (or solar? cant remember the name exactly lol), Stardust, Vortex, Steampunk, Dragon, Loki, Red, and Crowno with more wings to be add in the future.

The mod is MP-compatiable which means that you can use this mod while playing with others who don't have the mod installed.

How to use:
Due to the limitation of the game's lua API, I have to rely on tech scripts to access the key states of the player, in order to achieve that, I have included replacers for all leg slot vanilla tech scripts in this mod with added line that allow the rest of the mod to detect the player key states (while the functionalities of the techs themselves remain exactly the same as the vanilla). Therefore, please make sure at least one of these tech is equipped on the player while using this mod.

However, you can also easily add the code in any tech scripts that you are using by simply pasting
"movmentArray = {false,false,false}
message.setHandler("checkJumping", function(_, sameClient)
if sameClient then
return movmentArray
end
end)"
in its init() function and
"movmentArray = {args.moves["jump"],args.moves["left"],args.moves["right"]}"
in its update(args) function.

To craft the wings, simply open the crafting manu by hand while in admin mode then craft and place the wings desired in the player's back COSMETIC slot. And after that, you are ready to go! Simply press jump key to fly and left/right for horizental movements.

The mod is currently in its beta stage with many more improvements and wings to add so please feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments.

Updates:

Fixed the bug that causes the player to stay in air when gravity is low
Player does not suffer from fall damage while wearing the wings - a feature copied from terraria

11/2/2020
More Bug Fixes
Added a few more wings
Removed replacer techs for all head and body slots due to conflicts with other popular mods such as Remitech and RP tech, therefore please make sure one of the vanilla leg techs is equipped while using this mod unless you have added the required lines of code to one of the other techs that you are currently using.

Mod causes a massive memory leak eventually crashing or freezing the game.

I think wings only work if you have double jump

I think it would be best have a dedicated tech for the wings, so adress various issues such as vanilla tech edits and whatnot.

If I were to take a guess, it might be due to whatever gives the wings their respective effects. Things such as particles and the like. I don't really know for certain as I'm not a mod maker and don't understand these sort of things myself. I'll definitely be looking out for if/when it gets fixed as it's a really nice and immersive flight mod and would be a must have in that case.

Game lags super hard after just a few minutes of playing with this mod installed. The wings themselves function great (pretty much exactly like they do in Terraria), but the mod makes my fps degrade over time, basically rendering the game unplayable.

Ok so. I absolutely love this mod. Seriously it's the best tech mod ever. The flight is a lot like the beta rocket boot tech which was one of my favorite parts of the game. So obviously when they removed it I was super bummed out. I looked forever and finally I found this mod years later. I've also always loved Terraria and their wings so that's a bonus. Another bonus (there are a lot) is that the bug wings look good on every character I make! My only issue is the lag. Sadly within a few minutes of gameplay with the wings on (and flying around) my game is pretty slow, then if i leave my character standing there for a moment it gets so slow it's nearly impossible to play. I love the mod so much I'm gonna delete some other mods and see if that helps! :SBchicken:
