There's a few things that need to tweaked about minecraft's creative mode flying.
First off, speed. You should be able to press a key to either speed up or slow down your flight speed. It's such a pain having to slowly fly some where.
Second, slowing down. I've noticed that when you let go of the ASDW keys you'll drift a little before you stop completely during flight. You need to stop INSTANTLY.
Third, flight activation. Tapping the space bar ( or what ever you have your jump key set to) twice can be a pain for people who are lagging. There needs to be an option in the controls menu that lets you edit your flying activation key.
Last, angular flying. There needs to be a setting that allows your character to fly in the direction his camera is pointing. Say you have your camera in a 40 degree angle. This means your character will fly in a 40 degree angle.
Here's a great example of why you should be able to either: change your fly speed with the scroll wheel while holding shift (duh) or with one of the above suggestions.
Very much agreed to all points, especially that fly key thing. Most of the time I don't like, but it's annoying when I do lag and I can't manage to get off the ground.
Is there any way to just remove the drift? This was a serious advantage when building on the xbox version as it made creative mode building more accurate. I would love to even reduce the annoying lag.
I still have no answer for the drifting effect. I have realized that what I want is the computing power and versatility of the PC version of Minecraft with the smooth & accurate control scheme of the Xbox 360 Minecraft.
