About this Mod

🥔 Potato Cannon Mod
Weaponize your garden!

Tired of throwing away Poisonous Potatoes? Bored of the standard Bow and Crossbow? The Potato Cannon Mod introduces a high-quality, 3D-modeled launcher that turns your farm produce into heavy artillery. It fits perfectly into the vanilla style while adding a fun, explosive twist to combat.

✨ Features
Custom 3D Model: A realistic, "bazooka-style" launcher that looks great in first and third-person views.

4 Unique Ammo Types: Each vegetable has a different effect, damage, and particle style.

Balanced Gameplay: Features a cooldown system and durability, making it a fair weapon for Survival.

Custom Sounds & Particles: Satisfying "thump" sounds and smoke trails.

Advancements: Unlock the "Spud Gunner" advancement upon crafting.

🥕 Ammunition Types
The cannon automatically detects what's in your inventory. The priority order is:

Golden Carrot (The Sniper) 🎯

Effect: High velocity, massive damage (3.5 hearts), and almost no gravity drop.

Visual: Leaves a sparkling trail.

Best for: Long-range precision shots.

Baked Potato (The Incendiary) 🔥

Effect: Sets enemies on fire for 3 seconds.

Visual: Emits a smoke trail while flying.

Best for: Dealing damage over time.

Poisonous Potato (The Bio-Weapon) ☠️

Effect: Low impact damage but inflicts Poison for 4 seconds.

Best for: Weakening enemies or PvP annoyance. Finally, a use for poisonous potatoes!

Regular Potato (The Standard) 🥔

Effect: Standard impact damage (1 heart). Cheap and reliable.

Best for: General combat and mob farming.

🛠️ Crafting Recipe
Crafting the Potato Cannon is simple but requires some iron engineering.

Top Row: 3x Iron Ingots (Barrel)

Middle Row: Flint & Steel (Igniter) + Iron Ingot
