About this Mod
Bombs Away!
Tired of those ground-bound players who think they can get by without an elytra? It's time to show them who's boss! Take to the skies and rain down destruction with a carpet bombing that'll make them wish they'd taken flight!
Bombs away is server-sided, players do not have to install the mod to use it on a server that has the mod installed. (If you want to use this on singleplayer worlds, obviously you need it installed.)
Configuration
The configuration for this mod can be found in the bombsaway.json file in the config folder:
{
"enabled": true,
"tickCooldown": 10,
"tntIgnitersTag": "c:tnt_igniters"
}
You can customize which items can be used in the offhand using the tntIgnitersTag config option which corresponds to an item tag. The default item tag is c:tnt_igniters and is as follows:
{
"values": [
"minecraft:flint_and_steel",
"minecraft:redstone_torch",
"minecraft:redstone_block"
]
}
