Flamethrower
by wldd
Flamethrower adds an aerosol item that, paired with flint steel, fires a spray of flame across a wide area of blocks and mobs.
What it does
Players craft an aerosol from iron ingots, stone and a blackstone button and tripwire placed in the recipe. The flamethrower is used by holding it in the main hand with flint steel in the offhand and holding right click. Its flame sets fire to blocks across a wide area and damages mobs and players in its path, so it calls for care. Both the aerosol and the flint steel lose durability quickly while the flamethrower is in use.
The mod is server required and client optional: the server must run it, while players may add it to receive the new texture for the aerosol item. Its items respect the Unbreakable tag and the Unbreaking enchantment. A datapack provides the recipes and is installed together with a resource pack. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.21.6 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
