Razen's Tension Weaponary
by RazennGabe
Razen's Tension Weaponary adds Tension-based ranged weapons to Fabric, letting players fire projectiles that can be mixed and charged in new ways.
What it does
Tension weapons hold several charges at once, and a chamber can mix up to three different projectile types, including tipped arrows, spectral arrows, copper discs and end crystals. The weapons reuse technology from Trial Chambers, and the mod supports Multishot and Quick Charge along with its own set of new enchantments built around projectile behavior.
The projectiles interact with entities and the player in new ways. A copper disc bounces off surfaces and comes back, and it can be redirected toward a living entity that was punched nearby. Jukebox use is possible through the disc weapon, which is a separate customization feature. The mod is open source, released under CC0 1.0 Universal, and requires Fabric API.
Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Fabric only, with 1.0.0-1.21.4 as the latest build for 1.21.4. Only two new weapons are included so far, and the author plans more for future releases.
Key features
Multi-charge tension weapons
Tension weapons hold multiple charges at once, and each chamber can mix projectile types for a wider array of ammo.
Projectile interactions
Tipped arrows, spectral arrows, copper discs and end crystals each change how a shot behaves, and the mod documents several combinations as a spoiler list.
Boomerang copper discs
Copper discs bounce off entities and return to the shooter, and they can be redirected toward a nearby living entity that was punched.
Jukebox-compatible disc weapon
The tension weapon disc accepts music discs, so it can be used for customization and ranged jukebox interaction.
New enchantments
The mod adds its own enchantments that work alongside Multishot and Quick Charge and shape projectile behavior.
