Orbital Strike Cannon

by HuskyForge

Orbital Strike Cannon is a Fabric technology mod that lets players call down scripted TNT and entity strikes, set up through payload items and commands.

FabricAll rights reserved1.21 – 26.3

What it does

The mod gives players payload items that fire from a cannon and strike a chosen area. Each payload follows a set pattern: some drop rings of TNT that expand outward, some carve a deep shaft through the terrain, and others send entities into a void or pull a fishing rod toward a selected destination. Several payloads also rely on configurable values, such as the radius of the darkness effect, so server owners can adjust how far the strikes reach.

The mod is aimed at survival and creative servers that want a dramatic weapon or spectacle, and it can run on Paper, Spigot, Bukkit, Purpur and Folia as well as on Fabric. Server owners who run Paper need to set a value in spigot.yml high enough that TNT bounces behave correctly. The mod needs nothing beyond Fabric and is published for the 1.21 – 26.3 range, with 1.1 as the latest Fabric file for 26.3. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Payload items

    Each strike type is delivered by a separate payload item, which players can obtain with commands.

  2. TNT ring and grid strikes

    Payloads drop rings of TNT or a 100 by 100 grid of blocks, with timed rows and an empty centre in one variant.

  3. Entity removal and teleport

    Some payloads destroy entities in one strike, while others pull a selected player into the void or move the user to a chosen spot.

  4. Death ban option

    A payload can ban a player automatically after death, and this behaviour can be turned off in config.yml.

What the author says

Bring the chaos of Cubicmetres Creations to your server. If this value is not set high enough, TNT may bounce instead of behaving correctly.
