CarCrash
by KSmc's Team
CarCrash makes entities take damage and get knocked back when they collide with a moving vehicle from MrCrayfish's Vehicle Mod.
What it does
Vehicles from MrCrayfish's Vehicle Mod knock entities back and hurt them on contact, which turns driving into a collision mechanic. Any entity struck by a vehicle that is not an aircraft takes damage and is pushed away with the game's own push logic. Out of the box, a collision with a vehicle takes 6 health points from the entity and pushes it back with a momentum of 0.15.
CarCrash requires MrCrayfish's Vehicle Mod, and without it the mod cannot run. It runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and it is published for Forge 1.16.5 only, in a single 1.0 build dated 2025-01-13. Public source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are linked from the project.

Original push function
