ICESCEPTER
IceScepter is a Forge mod that adds a staff for freezing mobs, blocks and the area around them in ice.
What it does
The mod adds an IceScepter weapon that can freeze nearly anything a player points at. Players select an ice block in the staff's menu, then hold the weapon and fire a freezing shot that turns mobs into ice and leaves ice blocks behind. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, under the MIT License, though the code is not open source.
Key features
Freezing shot
Holding the staff and choosing the freezing shot launches a projectile that freezes whatever it strikes.
Ice block selection
After selecting an ice block, the staff creates ice blocks where the freezing shot lands.
Area freezing
A click with the staff can freeze the whole area around a frozen target, not only the single block or mob.
