SunRiptide

Bring true hold-and-release Riptide movement to your Paper server.

SunRiptide recreates the feel of vanilla Riptide while giving server owners a smoother, more flexible implementation. Instead of instantly launching the player on right-click, SunRiptide uses a proper hold, charge, and release system, making the ability feel much closer to Minecraft's native trident mechanics.

Simply equip a trident enchanted with Riptide, hold the use button to charge, aim where you want to go, and release.

Features

True Hold & Release Riptide

• Hold right-click to charge your trident.
• Release when ready to launch.
• Designed to feel natural and familiar to vanilla players.

Riptide Level Scaling

• Riptide I, II, and III provide progressively stronger movement.

Excellent Mobility

• Travel across terrain quickly.
• Launch yourself toward high ground.
• Escape dangerous situations.
• Close distance during combat.
• Combine Riptide with Elytra movement for fast traversal.

Server-Side

• Players do not need to install a client mod.

• Simply install SunRiptide on your Paper server.

• Vanilla-Friendly

  • Uses normal Riptide-enchanted tridents.
  • Designed to enhance the existing mechanic rather than replace Minecraft's combat and item systems.

How It Works

1. Obtain a trident with Riptide I, II, or III.
2. Hold the trident's use button.
3. Charge the Riptide attack.
4. Aim in the direction you want to travel.
5. Release to launch yourself forward.

Higher Riptide levels provide stronger movement.
