Where it goes
Is Starlance required on the client, server, or both?
The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.
The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.
What else does Starlance-2.0.1 need?
Starlance-2.0.1. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Valkyrien Skies (Forge/Fabric), Kotlin for Forge first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup. 8 come through another mod in the chain.
8 extra mods were pulled in by other dependencies. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Starlance add?
Starlance
This mod aims to provide compatibility between various space mods and Valkyrien Skies!
Currently supported mods:
The mod adds:
- The ability for VS ships to go between planets and space!
- Thrusters to power your ships!
- Optional artificial drag block for space! (good for slowing down in zero G!)
- Magnet Boots for artificial gravity!
- Two thruster modes, GLOBAL and POSITION, toggle with an item, or disable in config!
How it works:
The mod takes the existing space system of the space mods it supports, and adds VS ship compat to them.
For example, with Cosmic Horizons installed, VS ships will go into its space dimension on reaching y=560 (like Cosmic Horizons entity rocket ships). Then in the space dimension, if the ship enters a planet, it gets transported there.
With Ad Astra on the otherhand, the VS ship will open the same GUI as an entity rocket would on reaching "space", and lands where you select. Starlance also adds "tier blocks", accessible with /give, which dictate what tier of Ad Astra planet you can go to. Perfect for modpack developers!
Planned features:
- Survival friendly thruster system (fuel, etc)
- Warp drive for VS ships
- Full player rotation in space?
Current limitations:
- When transitioning between planet/space, player may be left behind by ship to be stranded in space or fall down to planet. More likely at high speeds. Solution is to sit down in a seat.
- Player can't rotate upside down with the ship in space, unless seated
Where to find the config
Find your world save folder, then find your specific worlds folder. Then go into server-configs. Open vsch.json (or similar). Alternatively, use the "configure other mods" feature of the Create config menu. (Note that Starlance is also listed there as 'vsch')
