Destructive Arrows Addon (Survival Friendly Function Pack)

This function pack/addon adds more functionality to arrows. They destroy blocks and also "damage" others. See the list below for all the exact changes to each block and the chances of it happening. This was designed for 1.14 so if commands change from then, this pack will probably not work anymore. It may work in older versions but I'm unable to test.

Will this be updated for 1.20? I added to my server and it broke it.

(Edited) This is Really an Awesome Addon but Could you do the same as the Trident In the next update ?
1
Could I request an added function, I want to shoot torches from afar with a bow and have them fall on the ground
1
I'll add it to the list! Think that should be possible :)
1
Sorry to bother you again, is there any chance they can break beds?
1
Nope! They only replace suitable blocks. For example when the fire falls it only replaces air :)
1
Sorry ignore my recent comment. I thought you were talking about my Apocalyptic Rain add-on for some reason. I'll add beds to the list :)

Hello. This Really an Awesome Addon but Could you do the same as the Trident ? Pls

I would just like to say this is not a survival friendly pack because you have to enable cheats in order to use it.
1
All add-ons require cheats to be used. What I meant is that it works in survival and is "survival friendly". Some packs add things which can only be used in creative, I was just emphasising the fact that the behaviour is compatible in a survival environment. Cheats on/off it can still be used in survival. :)

Hello there! As of V1.0.3, I have moved to using Adfly links for my downloads. If Adfly refuses to work all downloads are available on my Discord - which you should totally join anyway *cough*. I will be uploading a video demonstrating how to get past Adfly if you have issues. I have also had issues in the past with it but I recently found a fix which seems to work.

In case it wasn't clear here is the link to the discord: https://discord.gg/yYVb4gE
It is in the post with
1
- the heading "Discord (Recommended)". Click that link and you will be added. I've already posted an update to make this a bit clearer which will be accepted my MCPDL within the next couple of days. Thank you!
I swear I saw someone make this function on Xbox one
1
I guess it's possible, but I'm not aware of any functions which do the same thing? I can assure you this is all my own work :)
1
Just a quick note: I noticed a bug after I uploaded this so I will fix that today (not sure if it will take time to be verified) and I'll look into making arrows not always destroy blocks - but having a chance to for some of the tougher blocks. :)

make them not instantly damage them please, maybe after 3 shots are so then they get damaged
1
Unfortunately I don't think that is possible. What I could do is have a random 1/3 chance to destroy the block. At the same time I feel like an arrow would always destroy leaves - so I might be able to look through it and make some of the tougher blocks rarer to be destroyed.
thanks can u implement it for the more resilient blocks?
can u also make fire charge shred (instantly destroy) plants?
it would be appreciated :)

I submitted V1,0.1 yesterday, so in theory that should be up soon. It adds a level of resilience to blocks, but I'm totally open to feedback on it.
Fire charge idea sounds really cool and maybe it could burn blocks too such as changing logs to coal, or turning water to cobblestone? It's definitely sparked some ideas :)
thanks for like listening to my suggestions, no other creators really do that ?
I subscribed to u and will look out for ur further works
I would join ur discord server if u have one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
PS. don't forget to change the name of the addon if u implement this to this addon)

I shall keep these in mind! There are a lot of projectiles in the game which have the potential to do things. Even like snowballs, maybe potions and ender pearls too? I've got a lot of stuff 'n things to do and I'm working on learning and making addons in my spare time - so I'm not sure when I will get round to implementing some of these things. Thanks for your suggestions!
1
Yeah ofc np. Feedback is the best way forward!
And yes, a discord now does exist! https://discord.gg/yYVb4gE
And the addon will probably be changed to something like "Destructive Projectiles"... or maybe something better...
yes that would be amazing and the burn idea seems really cool :D
Fire Charge ideas
- destroy plants
- turning logs to a piece of charcoal
- cobblestone to magma
- planks are incinerated
maybe a trident from a dispenser could also damage blocks (of course more severely than mere arrows)

could you make some levels of destrution arrows
1
Could you expand on what you mean by this? Like different tiers of arrows which do different amounts of damage to blocks?
I would have to look more into addons to implement new types of arrows, as I've just moved from Java and decided to make a function pack. I do plan to learn more about it - so who knows, maybe in the future?
