tnt-bug-measurement
by GuiTaek
With tnt-bug-measurement installed, primed TNT leaves the blast with the initial velocity angle corrected, fixing a long-standing vanilla issue.
What it does
The mod corrects the initial velocity angle of primed TNT, so the blocks it throws carry the trajectory the game intends. The change targets the vanilla bug tracked as MC-298743, and it runs on client and server, so both sides need the mod. Fabric API is required. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.8, and the latest is 1.0.0 from 2025-08-18. The code is open source under the MIT License.
