GravityVS
⚠️ Fork Information
This is an unofficial fork of Gravity API designed to add Valkyrien Skies support.
- Direct Parent: Gravity API (Forge)
- Intermediate Fork: Gravity API (Fork)
- Original Project: Gravity API
License: Created under the terms of the original project's license.
📖 About GravityVS
The original Gravity API is restricted to static world coordinates and does not function correctly on moving physics entities. GravityVS solves this by allowing Gravity Plating and gravity changes to function properly on moving Valkyrien Skies ships.
While currently in Alpha (Cardinal directions only), the internal logic has been rewritten to eventually support free rotation on any axis, allowing you to walk seamlessly on the walls and ceilings of angled airships.
Key Features
- Ship Compatibility: Gravity Plating now affects entities when placed on VS ships.
🚧 Alpha Status & Known Issues
⚠️ Early Alpha: This mod is a work in progress.
- Cardinal Directions Only (Current): Free rotation is the end goal, but the mod is currently restricted to N, S, E, W, Up, Down while I stabilize the physics.
- Sliding Bug: You may experience sliding when a ship is at an angle. I am actively working on a fix for this friction issue.
