About this Mod
This datapack adds a hookshot, which has a range of 10 blocks, and a grappling hook!
An optional resource pack is available, but isn't needed if you download the mod version, or if you only use the vanilla, server-side features of the datapack
To get started,
Use /function hookshot:hookshot to get the 3D hookshot (requires resource pack or all-in-one mod)
Use /function hookshot:grappling_hook to get the 3D grappling hook (requires resource pack or all-in-one mod)
Use /function hookshot:grappling_hook_vanilla to get the vanilla grappling hook (use a lead texture) (compatible with vanilla client, server side only, no resource pack needed)
