Simple Turret Block

The turret is placed as a block and fires at targets on its own once it has ammunition. By default it targets hostile mobs such as zombies, skeletons, creepers and spiders. Living entities other than players count as mobs, while players are a separate target type and the turret never fires at the player who owns it. Targeting can be adjusted for other players and mob types.

The turret uses bows and bow enchantments, so a player can improve it through the same enchanting process used for a bow. Several fuel sources are accepted, and an enchanted turret shows animated spiral particles around the block so its state can be read at a glance. The Infinity enchantment still requires at least one arrow in the turret. Feature requests are taken through Willfurr's Series, and the mod is published for Fabric only, across six game versions 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 1.0.0 for 1.20.6 as the latest file.

The mod runs on client and server, so a server and every player who joins it need the mod installed. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its first and last updates are both dated 2026-03-27, the same day as its only release.
