Kinetic Weapons

by thecherrytest

Kinetic Weapons adds a family of spears, a mace-like weapon and a trident-based crafting route, all built for the Fabric loader on Minecraft 1.21.11.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.11

What it does

Most of the new weapons work as spears: a charge-based attack with a lunge, and a trident-style throw that can be done while crouching. A phase of the spear visibly rotates and shakes once it starts charging. Several crafted spears gain a suffocated tag after their item entity is destroyed by an explosion, and the weapons absorb fall damage.

The mod adds a new ore that only generates in the Deep Dark. Its weapons are crafted from materials such as Durable Blaze Rod and Breeze Rod, and the recipes depend on the Advanced Netherite dependency, which must be installed alongside it. One weapon has a long crafting process that depends on the world build height, and the mod describes parts of the recipe as requiring an Infusing template.

A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.11, under the MIT License as open source. The source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Spear charge and lunge

    Spears charge before a lunge attack, and the charge builds up over time before it is released.

  2. Throw from crouch

    Spears can be thrown while crouching, with a trident-style throw that returns the weapon when it lands.

  3. Mace-like weapon

    One weapon behaves like a mace with extra life-ending capabilities, including a chance to trigger a totem pop from a height.

  4. Wind Charge generation

    Holding two stacks of Wind Charges in the inventory lets a player generate one with a right click, with a longer cooldown than normal.
