I was looking for 2 things:

* Snowballs that hurt someone when they hit them, and...

* Snowballs that have a radius in which they injure anyone in that radius. Like a grenade.

I was going to make them but I couldn't get the code to work for it that I was trying.

Take a look at the throwing mod(s). Also the simple shooter causes damage on players.

Post your code here, we could take a look at it.

I have snowballs. I just want them to injure. And I want one that will blow up like a grenade.

P.S. I have the firearms mod - and I've added TONS of my own guns!

How about a lava ball for causing even more damage?

Maybe, But I want to have grenades that are kind of realistic for my Gun game server.

Could we also have a poison grenade to?

If you are looking for how to make projectiles explode and damage players you may want to check out this mod:

The snow mod is good, but it doesnt hurt at all.

by **Achilles** » Fri Apr 11, 2014 19:38

Maybe If thrown at a person it could cover up a bit of their screen or something... That is if you dont want it to hurt...

I think hand grenades are a bit extreme tho...

Could consider using smoke grenades... Don't know how the coding would work for it, but i guess it shouldnt be to hard to cover up the whole of your opponents screen and make them lose 1/2 a life per second.

I looked at your mod Excalibur and it wasn't like a army mod kind of thing. sorry. And Achilles, don't you know about the edit button????

Lol, I know... As i once said before, (a bit after those posts), I thought that when you edited a post it would be visible and therefore decided to avoid using edit. I now know otherwise :P

Is there no one who can do this(or wants to do this). It would go great with kaeza's firearms mod.

If you want to try making the mod you could try looking at PilzAdam's Throwing mod and my Fireballs mod (with PilzAdam's code for Dungeon Master fireball), and you could probably make the mod you want by piecing them together properly.

I'll check into it. I'm very surprised that no one has made something like this though to go with guns.

by **Excalibur Zero** » Thu Apr 17, 2014 16:18

I tried combining the two mods and I came up with a mod that adds bomb arrows that can be used with PilzAdam's Trhowing mod.

You can see it here: https://github.com/ExcaliburZero/bombarrows

I also uploaded a video of me using it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrMu6GuAhSw
