Do a Barrel Roll (Bedrock)
A port of Do a Barrel Roll by enjarai to Minecraft Bedrock Edition, as a LeviLamina client mod. It adds full pitch, yaw and roll to elytra flight.
Compatibility
| Component | Version |
|---|---|
| Minecraft Bedrock for Windows | 1.26.51.01 |
| LeviLamina | 26.51.6 (client) |
Installation
With lip, from the game directory:
lip install github.com/theaddonn/Do-A-Barrel-Roll-Bedrock#client
Or download Do-A-Barrel-Roll-Bedrock-client-windows-x64.zip from the releases and extract the DoABarrelRoll folder into mods/.
Features
- Full pitch, yaw and roll while gliding, with smoothing, banking, automatic righting and momentum-based mouse.
- Camera roll and player model roll.
- Optional artificial horizon and momentum widget HUD.
- Optional thrust with smoke particles.
- Keyboard, mouse and controller support.
Controls
Keys are listed in the controls screen under the mod's name.
| Action | Default |
|---|---|
| Toggle mod | I |
| Yaw left / right | A / D |
| Thrust forward | W |
| Toggle thrust, pitch up/down, roll left/right, thrust back | unbound |
Controller (XInput):
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Right stick | Roll and pitch |
| LB / RB | Yaw left / right |
| RT / LT | Thrust forward / back |
Configuration
The config is written on first start to mods/DoABarrelRoll/config/config.json, using the same layout as the Java mod. Main options:
| Option | Default |
|---|---|
general.mod_enabled | true |
general.controls.activation_behaviour | VANILLA (or TRIPLE_JUMP, HYBRID, HYBRID_TOGGLE) |
general.controls.switch_roll_and_yaw | false |
general.controls.invert_pitch | false |
general.controls.momentum_based_mouse | false |
general.controls.disable_when_submerged | true |
general.hud.show_horizon | false |
general.banking.enable_banking | true |
general.banking.banking_strength | 20.0 |
general.banking.automatic_righting | false |
general.thrust.enable_thrust | false |
general.thrust.max_thrust | 2.0 |
general.thrust.thrust_acceleration | 0.1 |
general.thrust.thrust_particles | true |
general.misc.enable_gamepad | true |
general.misc.gamepad_deadzone | 0.15 |
general.misc.thrust_allow_remote | false |
sensitivity.desktop / .controller | pitch 1.0, yaw 0.4, roll 1.0 |
sensitivity.camera_smoothing | pitch 1.0, yaw 2.5, roll 1.0 |
Thrust limitation
Bedrock movement is server-authoritative. Thrust only works in singleplayer, in worlds you host, or on servers running the server mod with allowThrusting, where the server accepts the client's position. On other remote servers thrust is disabled. Setting general.misc.thrust_allow_remote forces it on, which causes rubber-banding.
Server mod
A second build of the same project runs on Bedrock Dedicated Server with LeviLamina 26.51.6 (server). It is optional; clients without it are unaffected, and the client mod works on vanilla servers as before.
With the server mod and the client mod, players get:
- Thrust on remote servers, if the server allows it. The server accepts the thrusting client's position instead of rubber-banding it.
- Other players see your roll.
- Server-controlled config: thrust can be allowed, the mod can be forced on, and players can be kicked if they lack the mod.
Install with lip: lip install github.com/theaddonn/Do-A-Barrel-Roll-Bedrock#server, or extract Do-A-Barrel-Roll-Bedrock-server-windows-x64.zip into the server directory so that plugins/DoABarrelRoll exists. The config is plugins/DoABarrelRoll/config/config.json:
| Option | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
allowThrusting | false | Allow clients to use thrust |
forceEnabled | false | Force the mod on for clients |
forceInstalled | false | Kick players that do not complete the handshake |
installedTimeout | 400 | Ticks after joining to wait for the handshake before kicking (forceInstalled) |
maxThrustSpeed | 8.0 | Largest velocity in blocks per tick accepted from a thrusting client, 0 for unlimited |
Operators ignore forceEnabled and may always thrust. Clients detect the server mod through its /doabarrelroll command and then talk over LeviLamina runtime packets, so vanilla servers never receive a custom packet.
Not ported
- In-game config screen (edit the JSON file).
- In-game editing of the server config.
Building
Requires xmake. On Windows:
xmake f -y -p windows -a x64 -m release
xmake
Pass --target_type=client (default) or --target_type=server to xmake f to pick the variant. The built mod is in bin/DoABarrelRoll.
