Slime's Craft&Musket
by Black_Moss
Slime's Craft&Musket adds a multiplayer tech armory of muskets, a cannon, machines and guidebooks to vanilla survival, built on a datapack.
What it does
The content is a datapack with 41 items: six muskets, one cannon, five machines, two guidebooks and 35 advancements, some of them hidden. Firing modeled ballistics include fall, offset, misfire, chamber blast, moisture and recoil effects. Crafting recipes use vanilla materials such as gunpowder and cactus. The Musketeer's Manual cannot be crafted and is given through a command.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt on Minecraft 1.20.1, with files for 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1 available in the release history. A server must run it, while players may join without it. The content is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source. Installation on a single-player world copies the resource pack and datapack into the saves folder. Translations were added by a contributor who helped the author post the project.

Vanilla crafting recipes
