      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Hang gliders!

8 posts in this topic

Basically just the hang gliders from the crack pack, sticks and leather. Since we don't have jet packs they would not be OP, and it would be a lot of fun!

Man, that would be really fun to just be able to jump off the top of one of the huge mountains you see in TFC and glide down.

I am willing to claim it wouldn't be much conductive to the overall theme of survival. Not to mention overall pre-medieval level of technological thought that the game is to adhere to may not be taken seriously if stuff like gliders would be added.

Sorry, but firstly I don't think it would really fit with the theme of the game, and secondly I'm pretty sure there's not really a believable material strong enough with TFC tech to produce a useable hang-glider. CrackPack and other tech mods mostly rely on you not really caring about believability and just going all out, which is well and good, but TFC seems to be trying to achieve the opposite.

I don't know about hang-gliders, but a parachute-thing that slows you down and removes some fall damage might be plausible.

On another note, as mentioned above, hang gliding is outside the time-scope of the mod. The first gliders weren't built functionally until the 1880's, well beyond a reasonable time range for a potential feature in Terrafirmacraft. It's a nice idea, but you'd have to leave it up to a TFC mod, not TFC itself.

Oh I'm trying that. It sounds like a great idea. I didn't realize gliders we're invent in such recent past. They're kind of simple :P. I think I'll make that add-on some time. It would be fun. Except you'd need reinforced poles not sticks and string for sewing the leather together into a full wing. TFC style.
