How to make player fly

[person5996]

hey so I'm attempting to make a player fly but have run into an issue that bring that I don't exactly know how to make that happen. I have tried a few things but one of the methods I tried crashed my game, I am trying to get it very similar to the creative code where you double tap the space bar to fly but there is no clear method, that I saw, to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm also in 1.18

 hey so I've been trying this and even edited some of it but its not working I also don't understand what they meant by the "call onUpdateAbillities" here's what I've got any reccomendations.

 

public void command() 
    {
        LiteralArgumentBuilder command = Commands.literal("fly").executes(
            (commandContext) -> {return fly(commandContext);}
            );
    }

    private int fly(CommandContext<CommandSourceStack> commandContext) throws CommandSyntaxException 
    {
    
        Player player = commandContext.getSource().getPlayerOrException();
        player.getAbilities().mayfly = !player.getAbilities().mayfly;
        System.out.println("Fly set to : "+player.getAbilities().mayfly);
    
        return 1;
    }

Player.onUpdateAbilities() 

On the server it sends a network packet to the client to tell it about the changes you made.

I've been working still and think I almost have it but still don't have the flight bit down here's my code and I'm just wondering if there is anything wrong with it or if I just have it in the wrong place because its not in the potions start event. 

 

public void command() 
    {
        Commands.literal("fly").executes(
            (commandContext) -> {return fly(commandContext);}
            );
    }

    private int fly(CommandContext<CommandSourceStack> commandContext) throws CommandSyntaxException 
    {
    
        Player player = commandContext.getSource().getPlayerOrException();
        player.getAbilities().mayfly = !player.getAbilities().mayfly;
        System.out.println("Fly set to : "+player.getAbilities().mayfly);
        player.onUpdateAbilities();
    
        return 1;
    }
