Fire Arrows Ignite Fire
Fire Arrows Ignite Fire makes arrows that land on blocks start fires, so players can set things alight from a distance.
What it does
When an arrow hits a block, the block can catch fire. Blocks listed in the blocksBrokenByFireArrows option, such as air, can be replaced by the fire instead. The mod needs Deimos to run on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.
Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod. The code is open source under the MIT License, and files cover 1.16.5 – 26.3 with 26.3 as the latest build, first published in August 2022.
Key features
Ignited blocks
Arrows that land on flammable blocks set them on fire, which suits building and redstone-free traps.
Configurable replacement list
The blocksBrokenByFireArrows option sets which blocks fire can replace, with air as a standard example.
Server-side operation
Only the server needs the mod, so players connect without installing anything.
