SBW Configure
by igorir3
SBW Configure lets server owners and modpackers change how vehicles in Superb Warfare take damage, through the mod's JSON parameters.
What it does
Vehicle behaviour in Superb Warfare is set by JSON files. SBW Configure adds a way to adjust those values, including the DamageModifiers parameter that controls how each vehicle takes damage. The original SBW.json files for vehicles sit in data/superbwarfare/sbw/vehicles, and the ash vehicle addon is an example of where a vehicle's own parameters are located.
The mod is aimed at modpackers building PvE content and at server owners who want a tuned setup. It runs on the server and needs Superb Warfare to work. Clients may install it but gain nothing from doing so. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with the 0.0.1 build dated 2026-05-24, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
Key features
Vehicle damage tuning
Damage modifiers for each vehicle can be edited, so the same vehicle can be made tougher or weaker in a given pack.
JSON parameter editing
Values are changed in the vehicle JSON files, following the layout of the original SBW.json files.
Addon vehicle support
Vehicles added by addons can be adjusted in the same way, provided their parameters are set up as the built vehicle expects.
Helicopter auto-landing
A tick-based check within a 30-block radius handles helicopter auto-landing blocks, which the mod's notes describe as a feature of the same system.

Who it’s for: Modpack creators and server owners who run Superb Warfare and want to adjust how its vehicles take damage. Players who only join a server do not need to install it.
