Create Big Cannons
by realRobotix
Players who run multiplayer PvP servers can use Create Big Cannons to blow up rival bases, with multiblock cannons built from Create's kinetic systems.
What it does
Create Big Cannons adds multiblock big cannons, assembled from cannon blocks made of several materials across different tiers. Autocannons form a second multiblock line, trading size for a faster fire rate and extra capabilities. Kinetic-powered mechanisms load and aim the cannons, and a casting system is used to assemble the larger builds.
The mod is mostly meant for PvP play, where cannons are used to destroy bases and valuables. A menagerie of projectiles and separate fuze items set off certain shells in different ways. Effects such as knockback are part of the firing experience. Configuration covers many options, and datapacks can change them further.
It requires Create, Create Fabric and Ritchie's Projectile Library, and is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across four release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.1. The mod is not open source; it is released under a custom license, with public links to the source code and issue tracker. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.
