Arrow Attachments
by BLIZZ606
With Arrow Attachments, a player fuses an item onto an arrow and shoots it, bringing a Zelda-style projectile system to Minecraft's ranged combat on Fabric.
What it does
Fuse an item onto an arrow, then draw the bow or aim a loaded crossbow to release the fused projectile. A compact picker opens above the hotbar when a bow is held or a crossbow is loaded, and the mouse wheel or the arrow keys choose the attachment. Only compatible items appear in the picker, so the inventory is not scanned for unrelated stacks. A dedicated slot next to the hotbar shows the last selected attachment, and the mod remembers the previous one, so firing the same fusion again takes no extra clicks.
Each supported item has its own effect on the projectile, and the mod adds many more attachments with elemental damage, movement effects, crowd control and magic. Only one attachment is consumed per shot, so the item is not wasted. Full crossbow support includes selecting an attachment for a loaded crossbow. Arrow Attachments is published for Fabric only, on 1.21.1, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.

Use cases

Utility shots
An attached item can serve as a mining trick or an escape tool, with the shot used as the delivery method.
Who it’s for: Players who want ranged combat in survival or adventure play with more than plain arrows. Server owners who want the same attachment system for every player on a server install it on both sides.
