Sprint Flight Modes

Quickstart

  1. Switch to Creative mode (this mod only affects players who have flight and instant-build abilities).
  2. Start walking and double-tap Sprint to cycle through boost modes on the ground.
  3. Take off and fly, then double-tap Sprint again to cycle through flight speed tiers.
  4. Hold the Forward movement key while flying to trigger a strong directional speed burst.
  5. Press Pick Block (default middle mouse) to toggle whether your chosen speed is remembered between flights — a chat message confirms the new setting.

Overview

Sprint Flight Modes gives Creative-mode players fast, precise control over movement speed. Instead of a single fixed sprint or flight speed, you get several selectable speed tiers that you cycle through using quick double-taps of the Sprint key. It works both on the ground and in the air, and adds an extra vertical-boost behavior when flying straight up or down.

What It Adds

  • A cyclable set of speed multipliers for ground sprinting and flying in Creative mode.
  • A rapid-tap detection system on the Sprint key that advances to the next speed mode instead of just re-triggering the same sprint.
  • A forward-hold flight burst for quick bursts of extra speed while flying forward.
  • A vertical flight boost that engages when flying with the ascend/descend keys.
  • A toggle (via the Pick Block key) to remember your last-used speed mode across flights instead of always resetting.

How To Use

Ground Sprinting

  • Sprint normally by holding Sprint or double-tapping Forward (vanilla behavior).
  • To increase your ground boost tier, double-tap the Sprint key quickly while already sprinting. Each rapid double-tap advances to the next speed tier.

Flying

  • Take off using your Creative flight controls.
  • While flying, double-tap Sprint quickly to cycle through flight speed tiers, from normal speed up through much faster tiers.
  • Hold the Forward key while flying to get a strong burst of speed in the direction you're facing.
  • Fly straight up or down (holding Jump or Sneak while flying, but not both) and double-tap Sprint to engage a vertical flight speed boost for faster ascending or descending.

Speed Memory

  • Press the Pick Block key at any time to toggle "remember last speed" mode on or off. A chat message will confirm the change.
  • When enabled, your previously chosen speed tier carries over the next time you start flying or sprinting, instead of resetting to the base tier.

Abilities And Mechanics

  • Speed Tiers: There are five available multiplier tiers, ranging from normal speed up to 16x, applied to your ground sprint or flight speed depending on context.
  • Tap Cycling: The mode only advances when you tap Sprint quickly in succession (within a short window) while sprinting is already active — a single sprint press just starts sprinting normally.
  • Directional Vertical Boost: Flying with only Jump or only Sneak held (not both, and not neither) while tapping Sprint activates a dedicated vertical speed boost, letting you rocket upward or downward.
  • Forward Burst: Holding the Forward key while flying grants an extra directional burst independent of the tiered cycling, useful for quick straight-line dashes.
  • Mode Resets: Leaving Creative mode, landing, or stopping flight will reset your active boost tier unless the "remember last speed" toggle is enabled.

Progression And Strategy

Since this mod is purely a movement utility for Creative mode, there's no crafting or unlocking involved — it's active as soon as you're in Creative and start sprinting or flying. To get the most out of it:

  • Practice double-tapping Sprint at a steady rhythm to reliably reach higher speed tiers without overshooting.
  • Use the vertical boost when building tall structures or exploring straight down into caves/voids quickly.
  • Toggle speed memory on if you frequently switch between flying and sprinting at your preferred fast tier, so you don't have to re-cycle every time.
  • Use the forward-hold burst for quick repositioning without committing to a permanently higher speed tier.
