orbital-strike+ (TNT/Skull Cannon)
by MCclip
Orbital-strike+ turns fishing rods into orbital weapons, with 23 ordnance systems that drop TNT on a chosen spot from the sky.
What it does
Each weapon is cast like a fishing rod and detonates a pattern of TNT where the line lands. The mod groups its 23 systems into 3 categories, and each major shape has a Stab variant. A Stab variant places TNT columns from the sky down to bedrock at every point of its pattern, which reaches layers that ordinary blasts leave untouched.
Infinity Mode keeps a weapon from being used up or breaking, so one rod can fire repeatedly. Targets can be given with relative coordinates such as ~ or ~10, which helps when a strike has to be aimed from a fixed position. The mod runs on the server alone and is published for Fabric only, across 37 game versions, with Fabric API as a required dependency. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
