Assorted Boomerangs

Assorted Boomerangs

Throw a boomerang and it flies out, hits whatever gets in its way and comes right back to you. Anything it flies over on the way gets carried back too.

Features

• Right click to throw. It flies out about 10 blocks, then turns around and comes back to you.
• The wood boomerang is made from planks. The diamond boomerang is made from a wood boomerang and diamonds, and it flies out about 15 blocks and hits harder.
• It hurts any mob it flies through and keeps going.
• It picks up items it flies over and brings them back with it.
• It bounces off walls and the ground on the way out, and on the way back it flies straight to you, even through walls.
• It flips levers and presses buttons, so you can hit a switch from across the room. It comes straight back after.
• Throw it from your off hand and it comes back to your off hand.
