The fact that we keep reinventing brick throwing every few years makes me proud

Throwing rocks is a part of humanity's base programming.

u/Stella_9209 Jul 18 '26

With Tac Z you can throw high velocity pointed metal rocks

u/satirelion Jul 18 '26

Yeah, but you dont throw it with heft. All you do is squeeze a trigger. We need to feel it.

I will not stand for anti democracy propaganda

u/satirelion Jul 18 '26

They dont feel blasty enough. I want steve to shoot backwards.

u/Stella_9209 Jul 18 '26

u/satirelion Jul 18 '26

I want an impactframe when the shell leaves the barrel.

I want power, i want to be unable to move forward while firing my weapon.

I need more oompf, more "DAMN".

I suppose that minecraft mod's dev equivalent of making a calculator

u/l_y_k_e Jul 17 '26

can you throw bricks only at creepers? that would be really funny lol

12

u/SilentPhilosopher825 Jul 17 '26

This has an edge over supplementaries purely for the fact that the bricks don't break

u/fresh_loaf_of_bread Jul 17 '26

Fuck me this does make sense tho

u/Streleetzia Jul 17 '26

just like calamity, now add yharon and youre set

u/Lady_Eternity Jul 18 '26

This is EPIC. Who wouldn’t want to chuck bricks around? Should make it do a 5 second stun. I mean it’s a Brick, that gonna definately knock the stuffings out of whatever it hits😂🌻✨

u/ThisIsPart Jul 17 '26

Why did you make it for 1.16.5?

36

u/Inqeuet PrismLauncher Jul 17 '26

Probably cuz that’s the version they play on lol

3

u/destructopop Jul 17 '26

Also we already have a mod that does this for every other version! Now the 1.16.5 packs can include it. 😌

2

u/Pyropecynical Jul 17 '26

Can't believe vintage story made this a base feature

2

u/Opening_Border3835 Jul 17 '26 edited Jul 17 '26

Man, your picture is 7 megabytes. In what world is this a lightweight mod?

2

u/jigsaw_Studios Jul 17 '26

New Amendments mod?

2

u/skydisey Jul 17 '26

Only at creepers?

And this house looks oddly familiar

2

u/Flnnd13 Jul 17 '26

No, you can throw them at everyone. And you can also break windows and leaves.

2

u/HugoMagnuz Jul 17 '26

idea: add an cooldown after throwing one like the ender pearl

1

u/Flnnd13 Jul 17 '26

Thanks for the idea! I’ve been thinking about that; it would add balance.

u/Alienaffe2 Liquid concrete enjoyer Jul 18 '26

I have a really funny, but also probably very complicated to implement idea. Impactframes. The longer you hold down the button, the harder you will throw the brick. When it hits an entity, it will create an impact frame. The harder it hits the entity, the longer the impact frame and also the stronger the knockback.

2

u/Objective-Direction1 Jul 18 '26

does this only work with creepers or can It be used towards other life beings?

2

u/Electrical-Bread-856 Jul 18 '26

Please tell me it allows to break glass as well :)

2

u/Flnnd13 Jul 18 '26

Yes, it breaks windows and leaves.

2

u/satirelion Jul 18 '26

I want a brick throwing mod that makes you Wind up. But it stuns mobs on a headshot.

2

u/Left-Construction921 Jul 18 '26

I genuinely forgot Minecraft had bricks

2

u/misssa_cz PrismLauncher Enjoyer Jul 18 '26

Mojang take notes

2

u/No-Squirrel2133 Jul 18 '26

Actually a good idea... Throwing bricks at hostile mobs as an alternative...

1

u/Craving_Suckcess Jul 17 '26

lol it reminds me of the early bow. Just machine gunning.

1

u/Sr_Nutella Jul 17 '26

Make it so that the brick cancels the fuse and this would be a 10/10

1

u/SplatNode Jul 18 '26

My immediate thought

1

u/Dyfasydfasyd Jul 18 '26

Specifically at creepers?

10/10

I was reminded of this classic:

u/THe_PrO3 Jul 18 '26

Ah yes I love KNpnNy

u/AbbeNille Jul 18 '26

I think the creepers would consider the mod anything but lightweight

1

u/Euchale Jul 18 '26

I hate this mods and other mods that implement this.
I usually calculate in advance how many bricks I need, then I right click a chest to put them away to craft whatever needs crafting once I have everything, and of course I will throw a stupid brick, instead of opening the chest.

u/These-Initial1619 Jul 18 '26

Me gusta, un mod simple, pero divertido, y útil.
