Description

If you've ever wanted to destroy large swathes of land in an instant while having no regard for the local fauna and wildlife present, then our new invention of the Orbital Railgun may interest you. By harnessing the power of a star, you are able to communicate directly to our rapid-response railgun satalite, allowing for quick and easy access to absolute destruction. Simply aim your Orbital Railgun and fire, and within half a minute you will have caused an ecological disaster, but at least the area is clear now!

Note: it WILL destroy bedrock.

Usage

The crafting recipe of the orbital railgun. In the top left corner is a glass pane, in the top middle is a netherite ingot, in the top right is an emerald. In the middle left is a nether star, in the middle is a netherite block and in the middle right is a netherite ingot. In the bottom left is lapis lazuli and in the bottom middle is redstone dust.

Once you've crafted the Orbital Railgun, hold right click to aim and then left click to fire.

Note: This mod uses the Satin API for shaders, yet you shouldn't have to install it as it's included as a jar-in-jar dependency.
