# Preface

Just like Michel Ardan, the French adventurer in Jules Verne's novel *From the Earth to the Moon*, who traveled to the moon in a projectile, this mod allows you to embark on long-distance journeys via cannon—completely safely and efficiently (do not attempt this in real life).

## How to Do It?

All you need is a cannon and enough gunpowder, and you can experience a journey that starts whenever you want.

**A cannon-based travel method—efficient and safe!**

# About the Mod

## Mod Development Plan

| Mod Update Plan | Status |  
|----------------|--------|  
| Migration to Forge 1.20.1 | ✅ Completed |  
| Migration to higher versions of NeoForge | Not started, planned for July/August |  
| Open API for cross-mod compatibility | Not started, planned for July/August |  
| Improve and refactor the original mod's operations | Not started |  

## Mod Development Statement

This mod is a migration and refactor of **Blast Travel** (the original mod only supported 1.19.2 Quilt) for **1.20.1**.

- The **1.20.1 Quilt version** is based on **Abbie5's fork**, with the MODID remaining as `blasttravel`.
- The **1.20.1 Forge version** is a partial logic refactor by the author, with the MODID changed to `blasttravelreborn`. Please note the difference.

## Q&A

**Q1: Will there be Fabric support for future higher versions?**  
**A1:** Probably not. The author is not a fan of Fabric's development workflow. However, anyone is welcome to fork the project and develop a Fabric version. That said, the author might consider using the **Architectury** framework for multi-loader support (though it would be quite a hassle).

**Q2: Can my mod integrate with this mod?**  
**A2:** Yes! The author welcomes mod integrations. If you're a mod developer interested in compatibility, feel free to submit an **ISSUE** in this repository. The author is happy to provide code-level support.

**Q3: Will you support versions below 1.19.2?**  
**A3:** No. The author will **never** backport to lower versions. However, there is a mod with similar functionality—**Cannon (Teacon2022 Example Mod)**, which supports **1.18–1.18.2** and can serve as an alternative.

# Adding to Your Project
1. Download mod jar file，and put it under your project's 'libs/' dir, and rename it into "{modid}-{minecraft-version}-{mod_version}.jar"(for example, "blasttravelreborn-1.20.1-1.0.6-forge-all.jar")
2. Ensure your `build.gradle` has enable 'libs' flatDir repositories
    ```groovy
    repositories {
        flatDir {
           dir 'libs'
        }
    }
    ````
3. Add it to dependencies
    ```groovy
    dependencies {
        implementation fg.deobf("blank:blasttravelreborn-1.20.1:1.0.6-forge-all")//for example
    }
    ````
Cannon Model please install [BlockBench Plugin](https://github.com/LeisureTimeDock/JsonEM_Neo_Forge/blob/1.21/jsonem_models.js) in your BlockBench.

And import 'entity/cannon/main.json' with this jsonem plugin. Then you can view the cannon model correctly and create its texture.
