Description
# Orbital Skybender
A datapack that adds a TNT orbital cannon to Minecraft. Lock targets on the ground, then call down a rain of TNT from the sky. No mods or plugins required.
## Features
- Activated by breaking a vanilla fishing rod (no custom items)
- Lock targets and fire by looking at precise angles
- Up to 8 targets per strike, each with its own mode
- 4 strike modes to choose from
- Works in multiplayer: targets are separate for each player
## The 4 modes
| Mode | Description |
|------|-------------|
| 1 | 1-ring nuke: a single ring of 285 TNT with an empty center |
| 3 | 3-ring nuke: three dense rings |
| 4 | Letters: TNT forms the letters PPXD |
| 11 | 11-ring orbital: a wide, shallow crater |
## How to use
1. Break a fishing rod to activate the cannon.
`/function skybender:give` gives you a rod with 1 durability.
Cast it onto a block or entity, then reel it in to break it.
2. Choose your mode: `/trigger skymode set 1`, `3`, `4` or `11`.
3. Look straight down (0 90) to lock a target at your position.
4. Look straight up (0 -90) to fire at all your targets.
5. To continue, break a new fishing rod.
Other commands: `/function skybender:clear` removes your targets.
## Installation
1. Put `skybender.zip` in the `datapacks` folder of your world.
2. Load the world, or run `/reload` on a server.
3. Check with `/datapack list` that the pack is enabled.
## Compatibility
Tested on Paper 26.3. Works on vanilla or Paper servers, in singleplayer or multiplayer.
## Warnings
- This datapack destroys blocks: back up your world before using it.
- A large amount of TNT at once can cause server lag, especially with several targets.
- The TNT falls exactly on the locked points and can kill you: move away before firing.
