Create: Warnautics

 **Create Warnautics** expands [Create Big Cannons](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/create-big-cannons) with placeable aerial ordnance built for Create machines, moving vehicles, bombing runs, and destructive multiplayer battles. Place a bomb, point its nose, give it a redstone signal, and let CBC projectile physics handle the rest. Every bomb tier has its own model, flight behaviour, blast power, sound profile, flash, smoke, and terrain response. ## Main features ### Aerial bombs - **Small Bomb** — compact general-purpose bomb suitable for dispensers and cassette drops. - **Medium Bomb** — stronger blast with a larger crater and heavier visual effects. - **Large Bomb** — the main heavy payload, with the strongest blast, flash, smoke column, knockback, and distant rumble. - **Sea Bomb** — water-capable ordnance with an animated rear propeller, splash effects, underwater movement, and a dedicated water shockwave. Bombs are placeable directional blocks. Their nose faces the side used during placement and can be rotated with a Create wrench. A rising redstone signal launches the bomb along its nose direction, including downward drops, horizontal releases, and upward launches. Falling bombs use looping, distance-aware audio. The sound changes with bomb size and the listener's position, while nearby simultaneous bombs are mixed to avoid painful volume stacking. ### Small-bomb cassettes Small bombs can be combined into full-size bundles containing **2, 3, or 4 bombs**. - Right-click a placed small bomb with more small bombs to assemble a cassette in survival. - Ready-made 2-, 3-, and 4-bomb variants are available in the creative tab. - While powered, a cassette releases one bomb approximately every **1.3 seconds**. - Removing the redstone signal pauses the sequence, allowing controllable bombing mechanisms. - Every cassette size has its own full-size model and visible support rods. ### Land mines - **Small Mine** — antipersonnel mine focused on shrapnel and entity damage instead of carving an oversized crater. - **Large Mine** — anti-vehicle charge designed for heavier targets and moving structures. - Mines receive a short arming delay after placement. - Ordinary hand breaking does not trigger placed bombs; fire, explosions, sustained projectile damage, and nearby detonations can start a delayed cook-off. ## Explosions and effects Warnautics builds its terrain destruction around Create Big Cannons behaviour instead of using a plain vanilla explosion: - Resistance-aware craters and differentiated bomb power. - Reliable outward knockback for entities. - Sympathetic detonation with randomized delays for nearby bombs. - Native CBC smoke and explosion-cloud particles. - Bright distance-scaled flashes, camera response, and low-frequency war rumble. - Night-visible blast lighting and elevated sky glow, including light visible above terrain when the direct explosion is hidden behind a hill. - Water splashes, bubbles, surface rings, and underwater shockwaves for sea-bomb detonations. Effect and sound budgets reduce duplicate particles, lights, and audio during large bombing runs. Optional [Veil](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/veil) support enhances dynamic lights and bloom; the core explosion effects still work without it. ## Sable and vehicle compatibility [Sable](https://modrinth.com/mod/sable) is optional. When Sable is installed: - Bombs released from a moving sub-level inherit the structure's pose and inertia. - Explosions can damage blocks inside Sable sub-levels instead of affecting only the parent world. - Sub-level destruction uses bounded scans and material resistance, preventing unsafe access outside a ship's plot. - Ordinary blocks can fail across the blast radius, while obsidian and reinforced materials remain exceptionally resistant. - Large mines can react to vehicle-hull contact. Optional compatibility is also included for: - **Create Offroad** — wheels can trigger large anti-vehicle mines. - **Sable Player Ragdoll / Ragdoll Reactions** — blast reactions without applying duplicate launch forces. - **Veil** — enhanced physical blast lights and post-processing. These integrations are soft dependencies; they are not required to start the game. ## Crafting and creative inventory Recipes use materials from Create and Create Big Cannons, including iron plates, powder charges, gunpowder, and high-explosive materials. The Large Bomb requires Create mechanical crafting. All content is collected in the dedicated **Create Warnautics** creative tab. Its animated **Bombed** card groups the available bombs, cassette variants, sea bomb, and mines. ## Requirements - **Minecraft:** 1.21.1 - **Loader:** NeoForge 21.1.243 or newer for Minecraft 1.21.1 - **Java:** 21 - **Required:** [Create 6.0.10](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/create) or newer within the 6.0.x line - **Required:** [Create Big Cannons 5.11.x](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/create-big-cannons) - **Required by CBC:** [Ritchie's Projectile Library 2.1.2](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/ritchies-projectile-library) This release is for **NeoForge only**. It is not a Fabric or legacy Forge build. ## Installation 1. Install NeoForge for Minecraft 1.21.1. 2. Install Create, Create Big Cannons, and their required dependencies. 3. Place the Create Warnautics JAR in the `mods` folder. 4. For multiplayer, install the same JAR and required dependencies on both the dedicated server and every client. The mod uses one universal JAR for client and dedicated-server installation. ## Important Create Warnautics is intentionally destructive. Back up important worlds before testing heavy bombs, cassette bombing systems, chain reactions, or vehicle-scale explosives. ## License Create Warnautics is distributed under the **MIT License**.
