Launch Fire Ball
Launch Fire Ball lets players shoot fireballs by right-clicking, and it is a small utility that works on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.
What it does
Players can launch fireballs with a right click, without needing a separate weapon or command. The mod is built to stay lightweight. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across four game versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.8, with the latest files marked for 1.21.8 and 1.20.1. The server requires the mod, and the client can leave it out. Clients who want to use the feature in single-player worlds need to install it. The code is released under the Apache License 2.0, and the project is not open source.
