If you want it, and you have admin privileges, you can grant yourself 'space' and use it to toggle space movement on or off. The state will then persist between play sessions. For server admins, they will need to grant it to players when the player is online (not sure if there's a way around that).

At first I was confused, but now I get what you ment. I think it could be made an item the same way as jetpacks by keeping track of who has it and decrease durability when a player sprints. Also if it does get added to base game it will become a curio item... If it doesn't it will probably be added to sbo in itself. |

Ok wow u made it even easier to become an item as you made it a player meta properly. Make the item give you that property and remove it when it breaks, with a test to make sure users that have the item have it in their main inventory or curio inventory |
That's awesome. Tbh, I didn't even consider that it would aid modding in support for that; I just didn't want people to have to remember to type it in again each time they play. 😅 |
I don't really want this (i think it would be better to just remove it because you can have fast+fly, so not useful) hmm |

Code looks good, i am unsure about the idea (i think it should just be removed or kept)

It is unclear what space movement exactly is

Space movement is that ability to negate gravity by holding jump and aux1 at the same time. I think it's cool, but it's very cheaty. Feels like it should at least be an unlockable, but that might take more thought and effort than what I had today. 😅

Or did you mean I should just add a description? I can do that if you like.

yeah a better description would be nice, sorry for not being clear enough
I actually dig it quite a bit. It feels a lot better than fly mode to me and not quite as cheaty. There's technique to it that takes practice. I think Zander said he likes it too, but I could be wrong; don't quote me on that. If you want to make a poll that's like: "cheat?, unlockable?, hate it? what are you talking about (haven't discovered it)?" that might be good to at least get a bead on things. I just don't like it when people discover it right off the bat and never feel the need to get the traversal equipment. That equipment's fun. I think this is fun too, but it's too easy to get when you literally can just stumble upon it right from the very start. Feels good, but like... too good. Un-earned. |
I made a poll but not like that (made it: "remove?", "keep?", "this PR") |

I felt this was necessary to incentivize getting angel wings, a jetpack, and lasers. Otherwise you can just float over to meteors and explode yourself. And gaining emittrium is trivial too with space movement. I still use it a lot myself in testing things though, and it feels nice. I kind of just want to make it a clothing item property at some point instead of or in addition to the cheat. Like, phlogiston something-or-other could give you that property maybe.
I don't know. For right now, the cheat feels like enough to improve progression at least.
