Author: Nosytoesy

Create Big Cannons: Damage Nerf is a Forge and NeoForge data pack that reduces how much block damage the Cannon Autocannon deals.

ForgeNeoForgeServer required, client optionalMIT License1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

The data pack nerfs the block damage of the Cannon Autocannon from Create Big Cannons. Its author found the cannon too strong for landscape and structure destruction, especially in Create Aeronautics airship battles, and an existing project already nerfed Create Big Cannons, so this pack was made for the same purpose. It needs Create Big Cannons installed, and the server is the side that must run it, while players may join without it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, under the MIT License and not open source.

Key features

Autocannon damage reduced
Block damage from the Cannon Autocannon is lowered, so fights leave more of the terrain standing.
Longer battles
Because structures survive more shots, airship and base fights can last longer.
Server-side data pack
The pack is loaded on the server, so clients need nothing extra to play on it.

What the author says
