General Information
Gliders Plus is a mod that aims to add Quality of Life features to gliders, such as many configs to change, and the ability to equip a glider suit while not excluding chestpiece skins. The changes do not affect Glider Suits crafted before installing this mod, and with this mod, the original Glider Suit engram is remapped to this mod's Glider.

If you wear multiple glider suits at once, keep in mind that if you unequip one, the other will not be usable until re-equipped. It does not break the gliders' capabilities but is not recommended.

.ini Configs
For these configs, while they generally range from 0.1x to 10x, it should be noted that it is often not recommended to actually put the configs to the extremes. The lowest turn radius will turn so fast you cannot move your mouse fast enough to keep up, and the maximum speed is just uncontrollable fast.
[GlidersPlus] DurabilityDrainFromGlidingMultiplier=1.0 SpeedMultiplier=1.0 CooldownMultiplier=1.0 TurnRadiusMultiplier=1.0 NoDurabilityDrainFromDamage=False CameraShakeMultiplier=1.0
  • DurabilityDrainFromGlidingMultiplier accepts any value from 0.1 to 10. Setting it to -1 disables durability drain completely.
  • SpeedMultiplier accepts any value from 0.1 to 10. Higher numbers go whoosh.
  • CooldownMultiplier accepts any value from 0.1 to 10. Higher numbers mean it takes longer before you can use a glider again after closing the glider.
  • TurnRadiusMultiplier accepts any value from 0.1 to 10. Lower numbers mean it takes longer to turn.
  • NoDurabilityDrainFromDamage, when set to True, makes it so getting damage no longer reduces extra durability on your glider.
  • CameraShakeMultiplier accepts any value from 0.1 to 10. Higher values make your screen shake more while gliding. Note that setting a higher maximum glider speed will also cause your screen to shake more already. Setting this config to 0.1 will remove almost all shaking, even on a 10x speed configuration.

Like in vanilla Ark, the Glider Suit engrams are limited to Aberration. To have the Engram be learnable outside of Aberration, you can use this config in your Game.ini file. This automatically unlocks the engrams for everyone at level 62.
EngramEntryAutoUnlocks=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_GliderSuitPlus_C",LevelToAutoUnlock=62) EngramEntryAutoUnlocks=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_GliderShield_C",LevelToAutoUnlock=62)

To have the Glider recipe without Blue Gems, you can use this config in your Game.ini file. It has the same costs as usual, but uses Crystal instead of Blue Gems:
ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemArmor_GliderSuitPlus_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=60.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Crystal_C",BaseResourceRequirement=25.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Hide_C",BaseResourceRequirement=60.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Fibers_C",BaseResourceRequirement=100.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))
Future Plans
Currently, there are not many plans for Gliders Plus, besides possibly making gliders with alternative models. If you have suggestions for this mod, feel free to post them on our Discord server.[discord.gg]
