Ray gun

by PustePudlo

Ray gun is a Forge equipment mod for 1.20.1 that adds a handheld gun which fires at blocks, entities and players.

ForgeClient and serverApache License 2.01.20.1

What it does

Ray gun adds a gun item to the game. Shots that hit a block make that block and nearby blocks explode, and shots that hit a player or entity make the target explode as well. The weapon has heavy knockback and high damage, and it does not lose durability, so one gun can be used without repair or replacement. Shooting sounds are included.

Installation requires Geckolib, which must be present on the same side as Ray gun. The mod is published for Forge only, for one game version, 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest file. Ray gun runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Ray gun is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Explosive block shots

    A shot that hits a block breaks that block and explodes the blocks around it.

  2. Explosive entity shots

    A shot that hits a player or another entity makes the target explode on impact.

  3. Heavy knockback and damage

    The gun pushes targets back hard and deals far more damage than a typical weapon.

  4. No durability loss

    The gun does not wear out with use, so it can be kept and reused without a repair cost.

Use cases

Clearing terrain

Explosive block shots let a player break open walls or stone quickly during building or exploration.

Combat encounters

Heavy knockback and explosions on hit make the gun a strong option for fights against mobs and other players.

Who it’s for: Players who want a long-lived weapon with explosive effects, and server owners who want a ranged item with a clear area of effect.
