by baguchi

What it does

Once a player touches a barrel cannon, the player enters it and can be fired upward with the jump key. The cannon's aim can be rotated to match the looked direction, and holding shift turns the aim to the opposite side, upside down. Wind Charges increase the launch power, and the cannon can be crafted and placed as a block that moves and transports items. Barrel Cannon is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and it is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with a 1.0.0 build dated 2026-01-15. Client and server both need it.

Key features

  1. Launch by jumping

    A player inside the barrel is launched into the sky when the jump key is pressed.

  2. Rotatable aim

    The cannon turns to the looked direction, and holding shift flips the aim to the opposite, upside-down side.

  3. Wind Charge boost

    Wind Charges raise the power of each launch, so the flight reaches farther.
