ZollaS's Arsenal

The menu

Press Right Shift in game and this is what you get. This one works too — click the buttons and drag the sliders to see the ranges.

ZollaS's Arsenal

These are the default settings. Nothing is saved here — it's just a preview.

Toggles

Ultra Bow/Crossbow

Every shot fires a whole volley instead of one arrow. How many is set by Arrows Amount.

Rapid Fire

Hold the use button to keep firing, at the pace set by Arrow Shooting Speed.

Explosive Arrows

Arrows explode like TNT where they land, breaking blocks around them.

Debugging

Explains in chat why a shot did or didn't fire. Handy if your bow seems to do nothing.

While Ultra Bow, Rapid Fire or Explosive Arrows is on, the mod takes over your bow: one click fires straight away, with no drawing back.

Sliders

Arrows Amount · 10 to 2000

Arrows per volley. Only used when Ultra Bow is on.

Scattering · 0° to 180°

How wide the volley spreads. 0° sends every arrow in one line; 180° sprays them everywhere in front of you.

Arrow Shooting Speed · 0.01 to 10 ticks

Time between shots with Rapid Fire. Lower is faster. Anything under 1.5 fires every tick, which is 20 shots a second.

Arrow Velocity · 1 to 10000 m/s

How fast arrows fly. Normal arrows fly at about 60 m/s. Anything above 2000 m/s flies at 2000 m/s, so arrows still land instead of vanishing.

Buttons

No Blast Knockback

Explosions still hurt you, but stop pushing you around. Works on every explosion, and stays on after you respawn.

Clear Arrows

Removes every arrow lying around, in every dimension that's loaded. Also on a key — see below.

Bow and Crossbow

Put a bow or a crossbow straight into your inventory. If it's full, the weapon drops at your feet.

Keys

Change either one under Options → Controls → Key Binds, in the ZollaS's Arsenal section.

DeleteClear every arrow, without opening the menu

Arrows and ammo

A whole volley only uses one arrow from your inventory, however many it fires. You need regular arrows — tipped and spectral arrows don't count. In creative mode you don't need any at all. If you're out, you'll hear a click instead of a shot.

How to install

Pick the file that matches your Minecraft version: 1.21.1 or 1.21.11.

With the CurseForge app

Create a profile for Minecraft 1.21.1 or 1.21.11, choosing Fabric as the loader.
Search for ZollaS's Arsenal and click Install. Fabric API is added automatically.
Play. Press Right Shift in a world to open the menu.

Manually

Install Fabric Loader for your Minecraft version from fabricmc.net.
Download Fabric API for the same version.
Put both jars — Fabric API and this mod — into your mods folder.
Launch the Fabric profile. You need Java 21, which the official launcher includes.

Multiplayer

It works on servers and in worlds you share with friends, like through Essential. So nobody can wreck a shared world, not everyone gets everything:

Host and operators

Every feature, with no limits
Clear Arrows, and the Bow and Crossbow buttons

Everyone else

No explosive arrows
At most 20 arrows per volley
At most 5 shots a second
Can't use Clear Arrows or the weapon buttons
No Blast Knockback still works

Everyone playing together needs the same version of the mod. To give a friend full access, make them an operator with /op name — that needs cheats turned on in the world.

If something's wrong

My bow doesn't shoot

Do you have regular arrows in your inventory? Tipped and spectral arrows don't count. A click sound means you're out.
Make sure you're holding a bow or crossbow.
Turn on Debugging in the menu and shoot again — chat tells you exactly why.

Minecraft won't start

Check there's only one copy of this mod in your mods folder. Delete older versions.
Check Fabric API is installed.
Check the mod file matches your Minecraft version — the 1.21.11 file has +1.21.11 in its name.

My volleys are smaller than I set, or explosions are off

That's the multiplayer limit. Only the host and operators get explosive arrows, volleys over 20, and more than 5 shots a second. A chat message says so the first time it applies.

Explosions keep throwing me around

Turn on No Blast Knockback, the button in the top-left corner of the menu.
