🚀 Ballistic Missile Mod

Ballistic Missile Mod adds long-range ballistic weapons to Minecraft Forge, replacing standard TNT mechanics with physics-driven projectile entities, dedicated launch platforms, and coordinate-based targeting.

Features

Missiles & Defense

Missiles exist as placeable blocks on launch pads and transition into moving entities upon launch:

• Standard Missile: Tactical ballistic missile for medium-range engagements.
• Heavy Missile: High-yield strategic projectile. Climbs to high altitudes before entering a steep terminal descent. Features custom explosion physics and directional knockback based on distance from the detonation center.
• Interceptor Missile: Fast, automated counter-measure fired from Anti-Air systems to shoot down incoming threats.

Launch Infrastructure

• Launch Pad: 3x3 multiblock footprint required to mount and ignite missiles.
• Coordinate Terminal: Control block featuring an interactive interface to configure target coordinates.
• Anti-Air System: An automated defensive system that launches interceptors at incoming targets. Highly effective at shooting down Standard Missiles, but struggles against the extreme descent speeds of Heavy Missiles.

Targeting Modes

• Coordinate Input: Set explicit X and Z world coordinates inside the Coordinate Terminal interface for blind long-range strikes.
• Remote Control: Portable device to designate target blocks directly via line-of-sight.

Usage Guide

1. Place the Launch Pad on a flat surface.
2. Place the Coordinate Terminal adjacent to the pad (within a 3-block radius).
3. Right-click the terminal, enter the desired target X and Z coordinates, and press Save Target.
4. Place a Standard or Heavy Missile block directly on top of the Launch Pad.
5. Place a button or lever directly on the Coordinate Terminal and activate it to trigger the launch sequence. (Note: To defend your base, simply place the Anti-Air System nearby to automatically intercept incoming fire).

Planned Features

• Automated anti-air interception systems (CIWS/SAM).
• Extended guidance options.
• Sound overhaul and launch sirens.

Requirements

• Minecraft: 1.20.1
• Loader: Forge
• Dependencies: None (Pure Forge API)
