hello,just wanted to say advanced hook launchers is one of my favorite mods,good work doing it, good details like the web one not working on sand or the spear hook being able to do it and breaking glass also as a spider-man fan i'm happy with this one
when you have a mob "stuck" on a web hook and you manage to kill said mob, is it normal for the game to crash to desktop (I'm using the newest release for 1.16.5 btw)?
In reply to White_Blaze:
No, it's not normal. Possibly, it is a conflict with another mod. If you open an issue and provide your crash log, it might help.
This mod conflicts with the Water Physics Overhaul mod
Hi, is there any way to prevent Hooks from breaking glass?
In reply to EpicDRC:
Not at the moment, but I'm planning to add options to control hook interaction with specific blocks.
can you please make it for fabric
any chance you could add some hooks similar to the ones in the mod Hooked my brother and i really like the functionality and simplicity of these hooks but the develepor isnt going to update to 1.16.5 so i would love to see this happen thank you
Can i put mending and unbreaking on a spear hook?
In reply to rngmemedawg:
Yes, you can enchant fully assembled hook launchers.
Hi, I'm using your mod in a multiplayer server with some friends and we're loving it. We added the simple planes mod and had the idea to hook a flying helicopter to get attached to it and make it fly us around. The problem is that even the Web Hook pulls the helicopter down to the ground instead of making the player reel towards it.
Is there anyway to config the Web Hook to have 0 pull for other entities while making the player go towards it (like with normal blocks)? I've tried setting the strength to 0 but it just doesn't get attached to anything.
Thanks for the awesome mod.
In reply to EpicDRC:
In the latest version, you can set shooterWeightFactor to 0 in config/adhooks/launchers/web.cfg and fly like a feather clinging to the helicopter.
In reply to EnderLanky:
Nice! You're the best, thanks!!
I'm sorry about posting constant issues, but the hook line of the web hook constantly dissapears and then reappears after i change the camera angle. Also, make Tarzan jumps better because thile i pull it sends me upwards, covering a short distance instead of a long, forward boost. It means no pulling. Or am i using it the wrong way?
You should add more types of hooks, example, a hook that drops you after pulling you in, a hook that can be used for e.g. climbing ravines (i mean a double hook that doesn't shoot both hooks at the same time) (well, mostly of the hooks in this mod https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/grappling-hook-mod (that is outdated but i want to test some of the stuff in 1.16.5)), and some of the hooks on that mod. I am bored because only 3 hooks that in some way they work the same... nah... is a bit boring if you ask me.
Make the pudge hook not pull you into the mob, instead, you pull the mob back without you being pulled by doing so
In reply to catomax26:
I'm gonna add an option for this. Thanks for the suggestion. Did you get your keybinds working?
In reply to EnderLanky:
Yep. Working fine. Thanks for the fix!
In reply to EnderLanky:
Are you still working on this? So will this enable you to switch between being pulled by a giant entity to just reeling in any mob size? Is the weight mechanic compatible with modded mobs?
In reply to twitchy_aaron:
The new shooterWeightFactor parameter allows you to adjust the balance between pulling an entity and being pulled by it.
Yes, it is compatible and the weight is proportional to the size of the entity.
