Movement speed is one of the player's stat and affects how quickly they can travel around. Many features can affect movement speed, such as Movement Accessories, Wings, Mounts, Minecarts and Liquids, along with certain Buffs, Debuffs, Armor and other hazards such as Ice Blocks and Cobwebs. Movement speed can be broken down into horizontal movement, which is the most affected component by most sources, and vertical movement, which is mostly affected by Wings and Movement Accessories.

Vertical speed

Vertical speed is mostly affected by jump speed and gravity, which can be improved with the use of Wings, Mounts and certain Movement Accessories. When jumping, vertical speed matches the jump speed value subtracted by the gravity value (see Gravity) and remains constant for the duration of the jump. With wings and rocket boots, speed accelerates after the initial jump(s) towards a certain speed limit.

By default, a full jump causes a vertical speed of ~18.8 tiles/s against a gravity of 1.5 tiles/s and lasts for 0.25 seconds, giving a jump height of ~4.3 tiles.

Gravity

Gravity decelerates upwards movement and determines the maximum fall speed and its acceleration rate. For more information, see Gravity. This content is transcluded from Gravity.

Source		Effects
	Water / Lava	50% default max fall speed and 20% default gravity.
	Honey	30% default max fall speed and 25% default gravity.
	Slimy Saddle(Desktop, Console, Old-gen console and Mobile versions)	200% default max fall speed.
	Gelatinous Pillion(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	200% default max fall speed.
	Trident(in water)	60% default max fall speed and 62.5% default gravity (20% and 25% while holding ▲ Up). Effects are exclusive to  Desktop,  Console, and  Mobile.
	Merfolk(in water)	70% default max fall speed and 75% default gravity.
	Featherfall	33% (1/3) of current gravity and max fall speed (10% while holding ▲ Up). No effects while holding ▼ Down.
	Djinn's Curse(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)
	Space	Gradual decrease in gravity the closer the player is to the upper map limit, down to 25% default gravity.
	Portal Gun(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	350% default max fall speed.

Flight speed

See also: Wings

During upwards flight, speed accelerates towards a maximum vertical flight speed which is directly proportional to the jump speed value after bonuses are applied.

Source		Notes
( )	Rocket Boots Spectre Boots Lightning Boots Frostspark Boots Fairy Boots(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Terraspark Boots(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Vertical speed accelerates by 30.7 mph/s up to 150% jump speed. Instead adds 1 second to flight if using wings. No effects on horizontal speed.

Mounts

Source		Effects
	Unicorn Mount(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Allows an extra jump with 200% jump duration.
	Goat Mount(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Allows an extra jump with 200% jump duration.
	Basilisk Mount(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Allows an extra jump with 75% jump duration.
	Santank Mount(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Allows an extra jump with 200% jump duration.
	Pogo Stick Mount(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	50% jump speed when holding ◀ Left or ▶ Right keys.

	Honey Block	Run speed and acceleration reduced by 75%. Run deceleration increased by 200%. Jump speed reduced by 90% and duration by 80%.
	Cobweb	Cannot jump and current jump is canceled. Minecarts are not affected if moving faster than 25.6 mph.
	Distorted(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Forces the target to float up and down around their position.
	Webbed(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)	Movement speed is completely stopped (even mid-air).

Mph

See also: Stopwatch

Mph (miles per hour) is the unit of measurement of movement speed displayed by the Stopwatch. It takes into account both vertical and horizontal movement.

Mph conversion is hard coded as 216000/42240 which directly multiplies the pixel per tick velocities used by the game. This coincides with the number of ticks per hour (60 ticks per second and 3600 seconds per hour = 216000 ticks) and the number of pixels per mile (16 pixels per tile, 1/2 tile per foot and 5280 feet per mile = 42240 pixels).

Thus, 1 mph is equal to:

• 11/15 tiles per second (tiles/s)
• 44/225 pixels per tick (px/t)

Notes

• Rather than increasing speed, extra jumps increase the jump duration, allowing for a longer sustained increased speed.
