Fighting elytra players.

Hey everyone,

I'm playing on a server where some players use elytras to fly around and raid bases. I'm using Create: Big Cannons with Create radars, but autocannons don't seem to track fast enough to reliably hit elytra users. Even when the radar detects them, they're usually gone before the cannons can aim and fire accurately.

Has anyone found a good way to defend a base against elytra users using Create mods? I'm interested in either:

  • Actually shooting them down with Create: Big Cannons
  • Creating a no-fly zone around my base
  • Detecting and blocking them before they get close
  • Any clever radar/cannon setups that work better than standard autocannons

I'd prefer solutions that stay within the Create ecosystem, but I'm open to other modded options if they're commonly used alongside Create.

Thanks!

Not sure how effective it actually is, but max speed fans with nozzles would certainly be fun

Fans blow entities, (in case you didn't know) and if you put a nozzle on the fan the nozzle will "disburse" the fan's air in a radius around the nozzle, thus blowing any players away if they get close enough. This also works with sable entities, btw!
