Longshot

by boyonk

Longshot changes how far arrows, tridents, firework rockets and thrown items fly by raising their velocity and damage through a configurable potion effect.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.4 – 1.21.11

What it does

Longshot adds an archer's Strength potion effect that increases the velocity and damage of fired projectiles, including arrows, tridents and firework rockets. Ender pearls and fishing bobbers also travel farther under the effect, which opens up utility uses that were not practical before. Brewing uses a Nautilus Shell with an Awkward Potion, and every part of the effect can be set in the config.

The config controls the potion's color, given as a 6-digit hexadecimal value or a color name, and the duration for the normal, long and strong versions in ticks. It also sets the item used as the potion ingredient, written as a resource location, and the velocity increase applied per amplifier level. Fabric API is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, across 15 release versions, under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Archer's Strength effect

    A potion effect that raises the speed and damage of projectiles fired by the player while it is active.

  2. Longer-range throws

    Ender pearls and fishing bobbers reach distances that are hard to achieve without the effect.

  3. Brewable potion

    The potion is brewed from a Nautilus Shell and an Awkward Potion.

  4. Configurable values

    Color, durations, ingredient and velocity increase per amplifier can all be changed in the config file.

Questions

Does Longshot need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is the required dependency, and Longshot is published only for Fabric.

Does the server need Longshot installed?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Can the potion's strength be changed?

Yes. The config sets the color, the duration of the normal, long and strong versions in ticks, the ingredient and the velocity increase per amplifier.
