AC130

AC-130 Gunship

Call in an AC-130, plan its route on a live map of your world, and work the guns from the sensor operator’s seat.

Calling One In

Get a 12-player killstreak or a 60-hostile-mob killstreak.

• Once completed, an indicator appears in the bottom-right corner of your screen.

Use an Air Support Beacon to call in the gunship.

• Waypoint Route — the gunship flies the line you draw, turn for turn.
• Orbit — pick a center and radius, and it circles.

Either way, the red edge of the flight path marks the gun side, so you can set up your pass before you commit.

Confirm, and the aircraft arrives — a fly-by down the length of the fuselage, then you cut to the gun camera. The beacon is consumed. Everyone else on the server sees and hears the aircraft overhead.

The Armament

Three weapons, switched with the scroll wheel.

Right-click zooms, each weapon at its own magnification. R reloads manually. Every weapon has its own magazine size, reload time, rate of fire, damage, recoil, and muzzle velocity in the config.

Note: Gunship damage ignores potion resistance and armor enchantments.

COD19-Style AC-130

Thermal Vision

Press X for the thermal channel. Living things glow against a cold world, heat sources in the terrain read as hot, and heat falls off with distance and weather.

Note: Thermal vision may fail in rain because visibility is significantly reduced in rain.

Thermal vision requires Embeddium. Without it, the feature turns itself off.

Explosions

Explosion system:

• A fireball based on measured sprite sheets
• Ground dust and debris
• Shockwave effect

Controls

Markers are color-coded: green is you on the ground, red is another player, orange is a hostile mob.

Configuration

Everything lives in config/ac130-common.toml:

• Whether explosions destroy blocks
• Flight altitude and speed
• Ammunition, reload times, rate of fire
• Damage, blast power, projectile speed, spread
• Zoom and recoil
• Optional mission time limit with a return-to-base warning
• Render options

Run /ac130 reload to apply changes without restarting.

Languages

• Simplified Chinese
• English

Compatibility

Shader packs (Iris / Oculus) — supported. When a shader pack is loaded, shockwave refraction is automatically disabled because it cannot share the framebuffer with shaders.
