Bow Spam Be-Gone
Forces players to fully charge their bows - else their arrows don't shoot!
About this Mod
Bow Spam Be-Gone!
This project prevents bow-spam by forcing players to fully charge their bows in-order to shoot an arrow. It's a pretty small and simple mod without any configuration.
Usage
This mod is required on the server-side in order to work. The mod is purely optional on the client-side.
- When added to the server, bow-spam is prevented as arrow spawning is blocked unless the bow is fully drawn back.
- When added to the client, an audible tick is played when the bow is fully charged, to make the charge more obvious.
