*Of course not dnd* What do you want to see on Minecraft? i am a modder.

Yeah. Including all of the items. Other than maybe the glider. Unless it has some sort of special feature that an elytra doesn't have

My idea was that an elytra is for using fireworks and travelling, where the glider would be craftable, but you'd have to hold it whilst you use it (so no bows etc) and it can only glide downwards, more like a controlled parachute!

With some planning (EG directing the wind with the fan) you might get a bit of distance but the elytra would be heaps better. Upside of the glider would also be being much earlier in the game. you could craft it from leather and sticks - possibly with an upgrade to silk and sticks. Alternatively, it could occupy the off-hand, and be a short-use item to reduce fall speed.

 Could you also make it require a slightly higher crafting cost because it would completely trivialize fall damage.

 And it could be used alongside the elytra

make a mod for rolling dice ingame

 Wait, why would we need that for Minecraft? Just curious.

You could make it need silk, which is tougher to get than leather. Not sure what makes sense for it to cost, but could include a diamond just for the cost.

I'd say the simplest option for it would be as an off-hand item, and any fall damage you would have received is transferred to the item on landing. So you glide down a long way, and then it breaks. Makes it more of a consumable, fills up your inventory, and has much less control than the Elytra. Despite being early game, I think that not dying from an unfortunate fall would make them extremely useful. Making sure that they do break easily would balance them.

 True. Would it break after one use, multiple, or mid-fall?

On landing. Code-wise, you would look at what height it "engaged", IE when you started falling, compare it to where you landed, and then apply a damage proportional to that distance to the glider. Whilst in use, it would reduce your max fall speed to a survivable level, and be affected by the wind.

Yes, it means that a glider could let you descend from top to bottom of the world, but it would definitely break afterwards, which would still make them way worse than the Elytra.
