What it does

A server owner sets the maximum flight distance for the affected projectiles, and each one stops at that limit rather than flying on until it hits something. The setting covers wither skulls, wind charges, breeze wind charges, small fireballs and dragon fireballs. Without the change, a shot can leave loaded chunks far behind and keep travelling, which the mod is meant to prevent.

The mod is a server-side tool for survival and multiplayer worlds, including Realms servers. Only the server needs it: players join without installing anything, and the server can run the mod on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge or Quilt. It is published for 26.3 with files for 1.21.7 – 26.3 and is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so the source code is open source and public links for the source and issue tracker are available.

Key features

Configurable maximum distance
The flight limit is set in the mod's configuration, so a server owner chooses how far projectiles may travel.
Covered projectiles
Wither skulls, wind charges, breeze wind charges, small fireballs and dragon fireballs all follow the distance limit.
Stratosphere shots stopped
Wither skulls fired high into the sky stop at the configured distance instead of drifting on indefinitely.

How it compares

Full comparison

Projectile to Ender Pearl is a different kind of change, aimed at ender pearls; it is published for 1.21.11 under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. No Wind Charge Cooldown targets the wind charge cooldown rather than flight distance, runs on 1.21.2 – 26.3 under the MIT License. Increased Wind Charge Cooldown covers 1.20.4 – 1.21.8 under the MIT License. All three are server-side, like this mod, but none of them limits how far projectiles fly.
