Valkyrie Fly Mount

Use the Valkyrie as your fly mount. You can even fight from her.

Features

• Allows you to summon Valkyrie and control her flight
• After drop you will be granted Slow Fall until you touched the ground
• While flying most incoming damage is reduced to 10%; damage from bosses is unchanged (be careful)
• You can use your weapons and use items like tombstones, chests, etc...
• Flight stays above terrain and water, with a configurable maximum altitude of 1500 by default
• Mod is client-sided and can be used at vanilla dedicated servers (pls don't exploit it (￢_￢;) )
• You will be healed a bit when mounted
• The crosshair will be hidden until you use a bow or crossbow
• You won't take freeze damage while mounted
• I believe you aren't used to flight music
• You can summon several Valkyries if you are in multiplayer
• If you get stuck in flight, use Skip Intro in the menu to dismount. Enable "Teleport to bed on menu skip" to return to your current spawn point instead (disabled by default)

Mount control

To summon the Valkyrie you can use both set and default shortcuts:

• configurable shortcut for keyboard (default: LeftShift + T)
• AltPlace + Crouch + Jump (default: LeftShift + LeftControl + Space)
• JoyAltPlace + JoyCrouch + JoyJump (depends on used layout)

To drop from the Valkyrie you can use both set and default shortcuts:

• configurable shortcut for keyboard (default: LeftShift + E)
• AltPlace + Use (default: LeftShift + E)
• JoyAltPlace + JoyUse (depends on used layout)

Press the mount shortcut again to dismount. Press the hovering shortcut (default: T) while mounted to toggle hovering. By default, forward or backward movement ends hovering.

Mount shortcuts use the game input API. When a valid mount, dismount, or hover keyboard command is handled, it does not also open the emote radial menu. The regular T binding remains available when no mount command is being handled.

You can not summon the Valkyrie if you are:

• attached to ship
• sitting
• sleeping
• dead
• riding
• teleporting
• placing objects with hammer
• inside the dungeon

You will not control the Valkyrie if you are:

• chatting
• looking at map
• fiddling with inventory
• free flying
• staring at store

Controls are also blocked by menus, popups, radial menus, build search, key rebinding, and cutscenes. Opening a UI blocks new flight commands; it does not automatically switch a cruising Valkyrie into hovering.

You can press Run button (LeftShift by default) to "run" while spending stamina.

If you didn't touch the controls (nor mouse nore joystick movement nore keyboard clicks, nothing) for 2 min (120 sec) the Valkyrie will be flying you to Start Temple until you touch the controls again.

You will go through the objects while flying.
