Yeah, the death on landing issue can be avoided if you know what the terrain is like. You just have to get out at a low height that isn't touching the ground. You'll end up taking some damage if you're a little too high, so it might be good to just keep some food in your airship so you can heal up after getting out. Still it would be nice to not have to worry about it, but I'm sure Pchan3 is awfully busy, considering how much he has to update and keep up with Notch's update frenzy-ness.

Just tested this out and I have to say I am blown away. Besides the fact that it is basically just a flying boat with storage and fuel consumption, it definitely adds a sense of adventure and character to the game, something I think Notch should definitely implement.
If you EVER plan to port this over to Bukkit, I wouldn't hesitate to add it to my private server, as well as mention it to my current server's founders. Excellent work! :smile.gif:
I actually quite like the landing death bug :tongue.gif: It forces one to land slowly and carefully, which I much prefer to kamikaze "falling out of the sky" style landings.
it seems to be a bug...
not matter how slowly you land you will simply take damage.
it is actually not fall damage, i confirmed this by landing while also wearing the portal gun mod's leg springs which is suppose to ignore all fall damage and it does absolutly nothing.

Well, I've noticed that sometimes if you haven't been descending more than a couple blocks worth of height and touch the ground, I take less, or no damage. So, I'm still under the impression that it is falling damage, perhaps it isn't registered as normal falling damage in the game because of the airship mod somehow. That's my reasoning why your other mod didn't stop the damage.

yeah... its confirmed some where else that it is a caused by a bug fix in which falling while hitting the ground while riding something will not deal damage to the player was fixed by notch in the 1.6 update.
From hearing from the other planes mod it seems that it was extremely easy to fix the fix or something...
so he is probably just either so busy with his uni stuff in which he has not even logged in for a while or he is some what lazy at the moment.
either way... someone should email him, cause i dont even think he noticed this bug yet
Can someone please help me? I've been trying to get this mod to work for quite some time now yet I'm never able to get it to work. To test that it works or not I try making a balloon or an enginge with the 8 leather for the balloon around the center that has nothing and the same thing for the enginge except replace the leather with iron ingots and a forge in the middle.
I've downloaded modloader into minecraft.jar and then applied the same with the airship mod, can someone please tell me why it doesn't work?

Did you extract the airship mod and place the class files into the .jar? Because that's not how installation works anymore. You do install modloader by extracting and modifying the jar, but once that's installed, run minecraft once. Then there should be a "mods" folder in your .minecraft folder. Put the unzipped file directly from the download into that folder and it should work.
Hey, I've got a question for anyone who'd care to help. I use this mod and Glimmar's steampunk skin, and I'd like to use Glimmar's neat looking airship skins too. Problem is I have no idea how to do that. It's a little bit frustrating when every single topic on the issue says "rename to airship.png and follow the mod instructions". I have no idea what or where "the mod instructions" are. Could somebody point me in the right direction?

Alright, I think I know how to change the skin, assuming the png file from glimmar is formatted correctly. So using winzip or another zipping software, you can open and modify the airship mod zip file. What you're going to want to do is put the skinned airship .png in the gui folder of the zip file, then install the zip according to the install instructions. Let me know if that works.
firstly, epic mod, I love it.
secondly, can you please find a way to fix the landing instant death glitch, it detracts from an otherwise great mod.
finally, if possible, could you make the airship compatible with Risugami's elemental arrows? a flying fire arrow turret would be awesome.
As for the landings killing us. Just land over water for the time being

Seems to have a conflict issue with Millénaire's currency. Moved it into a chest by it self and it crash's =(

right shift, opens airship inventory, put your fuel in there and the airship will use it.
I am currently in process of getting my Airship mod working in SMP on the Bukkit server using ItemCraft.
so stay tuned to the Wiki on my site.
hopefully i will have something running in the next few days.
Excellent mod, update it to 1.6.6 for clicks! I MADE A RHYME!!! :laugh.gif: ! but really,
* Never mind, I figured out the problem XD
I'M AUSTRALIAN!
lol... why do people keep trying that...
