Description
Psionic
Pick up the world with your mind. Psionic gives you one item, the Psionic Focus, and five powers to go with it: telekinesis, force, gravity, storm and blink.
Telekinesis
Look at any block or mob and lift it into the air. It floats in front of you, follows your crosshair, slides along walls and floors, and shoves anything it touches.
- Right-click: grab what you're looking at. Right-click again to drop it.
- Scroll: push the object away or pull it closer.
- Left-click: throw it. Damage depends on speed and weight, blocks shatter on impact, and thrown mobs take recoil.
- Swing a held object fast enough and it hits whatever is in the way.
TNT is special. Throw a TNT block and it becomes live TNT that explodes the moment it touches a wall, the ground or a creature. Already lit TNT can be grabbed too, and it won't go off while you hold it.
Switch powers
Press R or hold Shift and scroll to cycle. Right-click is always the primary power, left-click the secondary.
| Power | Right-click | Left-click |
|---|---|---|
| Telekinesis | Grab / drop | Throw |
| Force | Shockwave: an expanding ring that launches and damages everything around you | Vacuum: pulls everything in front of you toward you |
| Gravity | Levitate: lifts creatures around the aim point, then they drift down | Slam: smashes them into the ground with a landing shockwave |
| Storm | Lightning: a real lightning bolt at the aim point | Chain lightning: arcs through up to six nearby creatures |
| Blink | Teleport to where you're looking (up to 24 blocks) | Dash: a burst of speed in the direction you look |
Mind Energy
Every power costs Mind Energy, shown as a coloured bar under your crosshair along with the current power and its controls. Holding things drains energy over time, and heavier things drain it faster. Blocks weigh as much as their hardness, mobs as much as half their health. Energy regenerates when you stop. Creative mode is unlimited.
Getting the Focus
Craft it, or find it in the creative menu (Tools & Utilities):
A E A A = Amethyst Shard
E D E E = Ender Pearl
A E A D = Diamond
Built for servers
- Server-authoritative. The client only sends what you pressed. The server does every check, every movement and every point of damage.
- Respects protection. Grabbing a block fires the normal block-break event, so claim and protection mods can say no. Spawn protection and adventure mode are honoured.
- Safe by default. Bosses, chests and other blocks with inventories, unbreakable blocks and other players' tamed pets can't be grabbed.
- Crash-safe. Held entities are tagged and restored if the server stops or a chunk unloads mid-hold, so nothing is left floating.
- Configurable. Range, energy, regeneration, throw speed, damage, TNT power, and whether blocks and mobs can be grabbed.
Commands
/psionic refill [players] refills Mind Energy (operators). Use /give @s psionic:psionic_focus to get the item.
Installation
- Install Minecraft Forge 1.20.1 (47.3.0 or newer).
- Put the Psionic jar in your
modsfolder. - On a server, install it on the server and on every client.
The key for switching powers can be changed under Controls → Psionic.
FAQ
Can I use it on a server? Yes, that's what it's designed for. It must be installed on both sides.
Does it work with other mods? It should work alongside most mods. Claim and protection mods that listen for block-break events are respected.
Can I turn off TNT explosions? Set tntImpactPower to 0 in config/psionic-common.toml.
Can it grab bosses? No. Bosses, including the Ender Dragon and the Wither, are off limits.
