Description
MSM Better Explosions
Medieval Siege Machines is a great mod, but unfortunately, it lacks impactful visual or sound effects for explosions. This datapack enhances explosions with improved visuals, sound effects, and adjusted physics.
What does it Change?
It completely overhauls the way certain projectiles (of mortar, culverin, catapult and trebuchet) in this mod collide with blocks, adding explosion particles, sounds, and slightly reducing the explosion radius for balance.
How does it Work?
Every tick, the datapack scans a 3×3×3 area around the projectiles for solid blocks. Upon detection, it spawns a creeper that instantly explodes and removes the original projectile to prevent the mod's default explosion. Thus, it will NOT WORK when: peaceful difficulty is set or mob griefing is disabled.
Known issues
The script might fail when a projectile is fired from certain angles, allowing the mod’s original explosion. Due to a lot of scanning occuring, firing many projectiles at once can cause freezes on weaker hardware.
Changelog
Versions for 1.18.2 and 1.19.x are available now! Unfortunately, v1.0.0 does not work on 1.16.5, but that might be fixed in the future.
