中文介紹
Boat Fly
A simple client-side Fabric mod that allows you to pilot boats and fly freely through the air, with fully customisable speed. This mod may be considered a modification of game mechanics, and its use on non-anarchy servers (e.g., Hypixel) may result in an account ban. Please be sure to use it with a full understanding of the risks involved.
🚤 Features
- Flight Toggle: Easily switch between normal boat mode and flight mode with a single keypress.
- Speed Control: Adjust the boat's flight speed at any time whilst in flight.
- Vertical Control: Use the jump key to ascend. When released, the boat will descend due to gravity.
- Client-Side Only: This mod runs entirely on the client; no server installation is required. (Actual effectiveness may vary depending on the server's anti-cheat plugins).
⚙️ Controls & Settings
All keybinds can be changed in Minecraft's 'Controls' menu.
Toggle Boat Flight: B (default) Increase Speed: I (default) Decrease Speed: O (default) Ascend: Spacebar (Jump Key)
Commands (Experimental)

/boatspeed <value>- Sets the boat's flight speed.
- For example:
/boatspeed 18.5will set the speed to 18.5 blocks per second.
