Trimmed Swords
by TimberJack29
Trimmed Swords lets players craft swords by applying armor trims, turning each one into a trimmed variant with its own right-click ability.
What it does
Crafting a sword with a specific armor trim produces a trimmed variant of that sword, and each variant carries a different right-click ability. Abilities include a high-damage arrow shot where the player looks, a full heal, a fireball, a burst of wind charges that launches the player into the air, and several timed potion effects on the player or on other players. Effects are listed with durations of 60 seconds, 2 minutes, 3 minutes and 5 minutes. The swords use custom textures and 3D models, and the reinforced and template items used in the recipes are part of the mod.
Trimmed Swords is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.8 with a 1.21.4 build in between. The server and every player need the mod installed. Just Enough Items (JEI) is an optional dependency and is recommended for looking up the new recipes. The code is under All rights reserved and the mod is not open source.
