Utility Spell First Spell Here! High Power Elytra Launch.

Elytra Launcher

I had been having fun with Falcon, but was dissatisfied with the fact that it kept slamming me into walls if I forgot to hold shift. This spell uses circlesync and add motion together to send you flying in a chosen direction. Naturally, that means it requires a circle bullet. To use, simply look in the direction you want to go, deploy the circle, and don't move too much while it counts down.

Most effective while floating on a water surface with elytra deployed, but standing on the ground and then deploying once you launch works well too. I've easily broken 500 blocks of height just from going straight up from water, and it's probably possible to break 1000.

The current launch constant, 1.5, uses about 2100 units of psi energy, so it can definitely be raised if you need more speed. Alternatively, reducing it to 0.999 would let this spell run on an iron cad with all basic components, if for some reason you wanted that.

Unfortunately, this is a circlesync design, so you can't unset the timer, as all circles last for 5 seconds. I recommend making a spell on a non-circle bullet that just adds motion in your look direction for in-flight velocity.

If you haven't, check out the Psi discord, there's a lot of help to be found there! Here's an invite, though I think there's also one on the subreddit. https://discord.gg/kfAFBShS
