Fly Mode and Noclip in Grounded: Scout Like a Pro
The oak tree looks simple until you are on the ground getting chased by ants. Fly mode and noclip let you float above the canopy, mark labs, and plan zip lines before you commit real gear.
Fly mode for routing and screenshots
Fly mode removes fall damage and speeds up travel between landmarks. Use it to trace a path from your picnic table base to the hedge lab without fighting every spider along the way.
Turn fly off before serious combat if you want weight and stamina to matter. Many players scout in noclip, land, then play vanilla on the way back.
Noclip for stuck spots and hidden cracks
Noclip walks through terrain meshes. Helpful when you clip into a rock or need to peek inside a cave before bringing the whole co-op party.
Do not abuse noclip in public sessions — it looks suspicious and ruins exploration for friends. Private worlds or solo runs are the right place.
Enable flight from the mod menu
Flight toggles live in the mod menu on groundedcheat.net. Pair with ESP to tag creatures while you map. Full install steps: Setup and FAQ.
