I want to make it so that in Minecraft, whenever a player falls, they have a fall speed of 0, stopping them from falling. Can I do that in vanilla, and if not is there any way to do it with plugins?
Best Answer
This is achievable in Vanilla Minecraft, without the usage of any game modifications, using a bug with the levitation effect:
Run /effect give <player> minecraft:levitation 1000000 255 true
. You can restore gravity by running /effect clear <player> minecraft:leviation
.
Unfortunately, this means you cannot jump at all, but it has quite an interesting effect, and movement works like a slower version of Creative Mode flight:
