Orbital Railgun Enhanced

by KingIronMan2011

With Orbital Railgun Enhanced, a player aims a railgun from orbit and fires it at a chosen spot on the ground, with sound effects added on top of the original design.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.19.1 – 1.20.6

What it does

The mod adds an Orbital Railgun item that is crafted once and then used by holding the right mouse button to aim and the left mouse button to fire. The strike destroys enemies and terrain in the target area, and the mod adds sounds for the shot. Volume settings and per-sound toggles let players control the audio, and the config screen can be opened through Mod Menu when that is installed. Geckolib, Satin API and oωo (owo-lib) are required, and Fabric API must be installed as well.

The mod is client and server, so both the server and every player need it, and the mod is open source under the MIT License. It is published for Fabric only, across 8 release versions 1.19.1 – 1.20.6, and the latest Fabric file is 1.3.8-1.20.6 for 1.20.6. Dynamic Surroundings, Mod Menu and Sound Physics Remastered are optional, and the mod is incompatible with Iris Shaders. Because the effects rely on heavy shader work, fast-moving lights and chromatic aberration, the page flags a photosensitivity warning for the mod.

This Video was made by HyIsNoob, but as it has nearly the same stuff as this mod, I just used his! This is a fork of the Orbital Railgun mod by Mishkis that adds sounds and other useful features!
