EnderElevator

EnderElevator is a Hytale mod that introduces a dynamic elevator system, allowing for practical and fluid vertical transportation between floors.

🚀 Features

• Seamless Vertical Travel: Teleport instantly between floors, or enable short smooth vertical travel in config.
• Simple Controls:
  • Jump (Space): Teleport to the next elevator block directly above you.
  • Crouch (Ctrl): Teleport to the next elevator block directly below you.
• Safety Mechanics: The system checks if there is sufficient space (2 blocks high) at the destination before teleporting the player, preventing suffocation or getting stuck.
• Distance: As long as the blocks are aligned on the same X and Z coordinates, the distance between floors does not matter.
• Look Preservation: Teleports preserve the player's pitch and yaw, so looking up or down before activation does not reset the camera.
• Sound Feedback: Optional teleport sound using Hytale's SFX_Portal_Neutral_Teleport_Local event.

⚙️ Configuration

config.json is managed through Hytale's config system:

{
  "MaxSearchDistance": 320,
  "CooldownMs": 500,
  "EnableSound": false,
  "EnableSmoothMovement": false,
  "SmoothingDurationMs": 320
}

SmoothingDurationMs is clamped between 180 and 650 milliseconds to keep travel responsive.

All Ender Elevator variants are crafted using the Furniture Bench (Textiles category).

📦 Installation

1. Download the latest release of EnderElevator.
2. Place the mod files into your Hytale server's mods folder

🧰 Development

To refresh browsable Hytale server sources from the installed game, run:

./gradlew refreshHytaleSources

The task reads the installed patchline from Hytale's patchline.json, decompiles the local HytaleServer.jar with tools/vineflower.jar, and writes sources to:

.generated/hytale-server-sources

The generated folder is ignored by Git. In IntelliJ, mark or open .generated/hytale-server-sources as a source root when you want full-text navigation through the decompiled Hytale server code.
