by Arsenalists of Create

Create: Energy Cannons adds energy-powered cannon weapons that build on Create Big Cannons, and players can run them in mechanical contraptions.

What it does

The mod adds cannon-style weapons powered by energy, drawing on laser, railgun and coilgun designs. Players assemble the weapons and their supporting blocks from Create components, so the mod fits into the Create contraption style, where animated parts work together in many possible arrangements. Its tools and blocks cover destroying targets, and the design leaves many choices to the builder.

Create Energy Cannons relies on Create and Create Big Cannons, and it also needs Architectury API and Create Fabric. The mechanics take loose inspiration from real directed energy weapon research, simplified enough that a player can use them without specialist knowledge. Files are published for Fabric and Forge, covering 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, and the code is open source under the MIT License. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
