Orbital Railgun UPDATED
Orbital Railgun UPDATED adds a satellite-fired railgun that lets a player call down an orbital beam on a chosen point of the terrain.
What it does
Orbital Railgun UPDATED lets a player aim at the terrain and fire a beam from an orbital railgun satellite. The beam is controlled from the ground and strikes within about half a minute of firing, clearing the area it hits. The mod is written for the modern game and is intended for modpacks, where it is listed under the Technology category. Client and server both need it; it is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the 2.1.0+26.3 build for 26.3 released under the MIT License as open source.
Key features
Orbital beam strike
A beam fired from a satellite hits the aimed spot, removing the terrain and anything on it.
Fast satellite response
The railgun satellite is called in from a power source and fires within about half a minute.
Aimed targeting
The player chooses where the beam lands before firing, so the strike area is set in advance.
