Mad Crow Glider

Name: Mad Crow Glider
Author: Bannta

BBy Bannta

A Gliders made to have the appearence of a Tobias's Mad Crow wings and Color Variants for Gliders

Description

Found on the back side of the Customized translocator schematic is a rough pencil sketch of a glider that appears to be the first progress of the Mad Crow; Label Phase one, Will it Fly?

A primitive frame of aged wood and cured leather, lacking the Temporal Gears or metallic reinforcements seen in later iterations. It is a pure aerodynamic study of what would become the Mad Crow, the mechanical guardian of the Devastation Tower

Thoughts...Structural Paradox: By sketching a glider on the back of a Translocator schematic, the author implies that if one cannot move through space instantly, they must at least move through the air gracefully. It suggests a desperate period of invention where paper was scarce, and ideas were plentiful. The question "Will it Fly?" is a nod to the "rickety" nature of early temporal tech. Much like the Rickety Translocator itself, which Tobias provides only after you retrieve the lens from the Crow. This glider represents the era of Jonas's early experiments before the "awakening" of the mechanicals.

FEATURES

The Mod adds the ability to have colored Gliders
End Game Glider after collecting a customized translocator schematic.
Updated configuration-enabled (default is disabled) Glider Glider(Note: For some reason I refer to it as Glider Reforge), which is fully configurable(I tweaked the setting that provided the best feel for gliding base of old post on the Glider Reforge Page, along with some tweaking). 
- If Glider Reforge (It's Glider Glider) is enabled, then the Glider will inherit the new settings.
End Game Glider: The Mad Crow Glider NOW FLAPS, and if fully enabled, provides slight vertical lift and a forward speed bump
Vanilla visual issue where, when another player views a glider in flight, it appears standing up in a walk pose. This will be fixed using this mod.
