Naginata

Vanilla swords fight at arm’s length. This add-on adds craftable naginata — long polearms built for spacing, reach, and wide horizontal cuts rather than spammy close-range clicking.

Each tier hits one point harder than the same-material sword, but every sweep carries a ~3 second cooldown. Hold your distance, swing once, and let the fan-shaped slash do the work.

Features

• Long reach — Native piercing_weapon reach from about 6.0 to 7.75 blocks by tier (iron ≈ 6.75).
• Horizontal sweep — Script-driven fan attack hits multiple mobs in front of you; side targets take reduced damage.
• Heavy hits — Sword damage +1 per tier (e.g. iron sword 6 → iron naginata 7).
• Paced combat — ~3 s attack cooldown on sweeps; left-click attack only (no right-click spam).
• 7 craftable tiers — Wood, Stone, Copper, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Netherite (smithing upgrade).
• Diagonal recipe — Blade material + 2 bamboo in a diagonal pattern to suggest pole length.
• Stone variants — Cobblestone, cobbled deepslate, and blackstone all work for stone naginata craft/repair.
• Sword enchantments — Sharpness, Smite, Bane of Arthropods, Fire Aspect, Unbreaking, etc.
• Sweep feedback — Single fan-shaped slash trail + custom whoosh SFX.
• Vanilla-friendly look — 2D item sprites (no oversized 3D attachable).
• Settings UI — DDUI settings screen with legacy fallback.
• Credits QR in-form — YouTube / Ko-fi QR codes shown inside the settings form (scan from screen; no block giveaway).
• English / Japanese — Item names and UI text follow the game language.
