Bouncing Balls API

by Rexbas

Bouncing Balls API is a library for Forge and NeoForge that other mods use to build bouncing balls and the objects that made from them.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.16.1 – 1.20.4

What it does

The library holds the bouncing ball logic that other mods call, so an add-on does not need to reimplement the physics or the item behavior. Two catalog mods, Teletubbies and Bouncing Balls, depend on it and cannot run without it. Installed alone it does nothing visible to a player.

It runs on client and server, so both sides need it when a dependent mod is present. Source code and the issue tracker are public, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so the project is open source. Builds cover 1.16.1 – 1.20.4 on Forge and NeoForge.

Key features

  1. Shared ball logic

    Bouncing ball behavior lives in the library, so dependent mods reuse one implementation.

  2. Materials for other mods

    Materials can be created in other mods and made into bouncing balls through the API.

  3. Teletubbies support

    The Teletubbies Mod uses the library to add its bouncing ball content.

Questions

Does Teletubbies need Bouncing Balls API?

Yes. Teletubbies is one of the two catalog mods that require the library, so it must be installed alongside it.

Does the library need to be on both sides?

Yes. The server and every player need the mod installed.

What the author says

This mod alone does nothing. This mod will handle Bouncing Balls logic in other mods and allows to simply make Bouncing Balls made of materials created by other mods.
