What it does

The mod gives players firearms and gadgets, including simple revolvers, heavy weapons, a handgun that can be held in the off hand, and a scope for the sniper rifle. Grappling Hook, Night Vision Goggles, Sonar Vision Goggles and a Diving Helmet with Rebreather are also included. The Night Vision Goggles need fuel and the goggles need a battery to work. Gun Shops and new NPCs that carry guns add ways to get equipment in a world.

Missions are built with the Game Master's Book, which is handed out with the mod. It lets a player edit missions, summon NPCs, shoot, change game options and assign teams, so a player can give themselves, other players or other mobs a team, complete missions, activate AI and leave a team. The mission editor is inspired by level and scenario editors from real-time strategy games such as Age of Empires, and the mod's scenario data is tied to Earth Empires, Dawn Modern World and Jedi Academy.

The gadgets and guns work in single-player and multiplayer. The world must allow commands and cheats for the command set to work, and giving guns, ammo and gadgets is done with a command. The mod is server required with the client optional, and the server needs it installed for the mission and gun content to run. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 11 release versions, 1.21.4 – 26.3, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source. Uninstalling the data pack is done with a command.

How it compares

Full comparison

I Editor is open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.21.6 – 26.3, and is also server required with client optional, so it covers a similar editing need from a different project. Just Enough Guns New is open source under the GNU General Public License v2.0 only, targets Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1 – 26.3, and runs on client and server, which means both sides need it.
