Movement Speed Fixed: Enhancing Mobility in tModLoader

Tired of movement speed feeling like a secondary concern in your tModLoader adventures? The Movement Speed Fixed mod breathes new life into this often-underutilized stat, making your character’s agility a crucial element throughout the entire game.

Rethinking Movement Speed Bonuses

This mod fundamentally changes how movement speed bonuses interact with sprinting boots and wings. Instead of simply capping your maximum speed, the game now calculates the potential speed increase you’d gain without these items and adds it directly to your running or flying capabilities. This ensures that investing in movement speed items provides a tangible and significant benefit, regardless of your current gear.

Balancing the Boost

With movement speed becoming a much more impactful stat, the mod introduces several carefully considered balance changes to existing items. The goal is to prevent players from achieving absurd speeds while still rewarding strategic gear choices. Key adjustments include:

• Reduced movement speed from Well Fed buffs to better align with their damage bonuses.
• A slight decrease in the Swiftness Potion’s speed increase, reflecting its enhanced value in later game stages.
• Adjustments to Sugar Rush to maintain a logical progression of speed buffs.
• An increased movement speed bonus for the Aglet, now serving as a foundational speed enhancement.
• A significantly reduced, but still potent, scaling effect for Asphalt, allowing it to synergize effectively with boot bonuses.

Acceleration Overhaul

Beyond raw speed, Movement Speed Fixed also polishes acceleration, making your character feel more responsive and fluid. Base acceleration receives a healthy boost, enhancing early-game movement. The Anklet of the Wind is re-imagined with a focus on acceleration, providing a unique benefit that synergizes well with its upgraded forms. Lightning Boots and their subsequent upgrades offer increased acceleration and a slightly higher top speed, making them a more competitive choice.

Key Features at a Glance:

• Movement speed bonuses now directly contribute to maximum running and flying speed.
• Comprehensive balancing of existing speed-granting items.
• Enhanced base player acceleration for improved responsiveness.
• Reworked Anklet of the Wind for a dedicated acceleration bonus.
• Synergistic updates to Lightning Boots and their upgrades.
• Optional “boot stacking” feature, allowing multiple sprinting accessories to increase maximum running speed.
• Fixes for equipment order priority issues with boots.

Movement Speed Fixed offers a refreshing take on character progression in tModLoader, making every step and leap more impactful.
