Quickstart

1. Craft the iron frame armor pieces and its Fusion Core, then equip a matching set and carry that Core for powered effects. Upgrade the pieces in sequence at a Smithing Table.
2. Craft ammunition for the weapon you want: Mini Nukes for the Fat Man Launcher, a Gatling Laser Fusion Core for the Gatling Laser, Fusion Cells for the Tesla Cannon, or Flamer Fuel for the Napalmer. Keep ammunition in your inventory and use the weapon (right-click by default); the Gatling Laser fires while you hold use.
3. Use a Stimpack like food when you need healing, nourishment, or to clear harmful effects.
4. Give explosive weapons room to detonate, and keep spare ammunition and armor power on hand for longer fights.

Overview

This mod adds a powered-armor progression, four ranged weapons with distinct ammunition and firing styles, and a consumable healing item. Armor progresses from the iron frame through T-45, T-51, T-60, X-01, and X-02. A complete matching suit grants tier-based benefits; weapons range from sustained laser fire and chaining lightning to impact explosions and fire blasts.

Powered Armor

Build and power the frame

Craft the armor Fusion Core from copper, redstone, and blaze powder: . The basic set uses iron and copper; its chest rig also requires a Core.

Equip all four pieces from the same tier. A complete suit with a usable armor Fusion Core in your inventory grants Speed I, Resistance I, and Fire Resistance I. The Core loses durability while powering a complete suit—about one point every 20 seconds, or roughly 90 minutes of active use from a full Core. Mixed tiers do not count as a complete set.

Upgrade progression

Use a Smithing Table to upgrade each armor slot separately. Put the matching template, previous-tier piece, and required addition in the smithing slots. Craft enough templates to upgrade all four pieces.

The T-45 template is made with iron, diamonds, and an armor Fusion Core; its smithing addition is an iron block. T-51 uses netherite scrap, diamonds, and an armor Fusion Core for its template, with a netherite ingot as the addition. T-60, X-01, and X-02 templates use netherite ingots, netherite blocks, and an armor Fusion Core; each of those upgrades uses a netherite block as its addition.

Suit benefits and cargo rack

• T-51 adds Strength I and improves Speed and Resistance to II.
• T-60 grants Speed IV, Resistance IV, Strength III, and Haste II.
• X-01 grants Speed V, Resistance V, Strength IV, and Haste III. A complete X-01 suit prevents fall and drowning damage.
• X-02 grants Speed VI, Strength V, and Haste IV, along with the baseline Resistance and Fire Resistance. A complete X-02 suit prevents all damage.
• While wearing any complete suit, use an armor Fusion Core to open its 10-slot cargo rack, stored in the chestplate. The rack does not require powered effects to be active.

Weapons and ammunition

The armor Fusion Core, Gatling Laser Fusion Core, and Fusion Cell are different items with different recipes and uses. The Gatling Laser Core powers the laser; the armor Core powers the suit and opens its cargo rack; Fusion Cells are ammunition for the Tesla Cannon.

Gatling Laser

Craft the Gatling Laser from iron blocks, gold, a diamond, and iron ingots: . Its Fusion Core uses copper, glowstone dust, redstone, and an ender pearl: .

Hold the laser and press and hold use to fire a rapid, continuous stream. It draws Cores from your inventory automatically as needed and stops when you run out; Creative players with unlimited resources do not need Cores. The beam travels straight from your eyes, stops at the first solid block, and damages the first living entity in its path. Its long range and fast rate of fire suit open sightlines and sustained attacks.

Tesla Cannon

Craft Fusion Cells from copper, glowstone dust, and redstone; the recipe produces eight: . Craft the Tesla Cannon from gold ingots, a lightning rod, redstone blocks, a blaze rod, and an iron block: .

Use the cannon while aiming at a hostile mob. It consumes one Fusion Cell per shot (Creative players with instant-build do not need one), has a 10-tick cooldown, and loses durability with each shot. It has 512 durability and can receive weapon, durability, and Vanishing Curse enchantments. The cannon targets a valid hostile entity within about 24 blocks along your line of sight; the lightning can then chain to nearby enemies within roughly 7 blocks of each other, hitting up to 20 targets total. The first target takes the strongest hit, with damage decreasing along the chain. Lightning-colored beam effects and a thunderous impact sound accompany a shot.

Fat Man Launcher and Mini Nukes

Craft the Fat Man Launcher from iron, a netherite ingot, sticks, and a blaze rod: . Craft a Mini Nuke from TNT and a gold ingot: . Mini Nukes stack to 16; the launcher does not stack and has 512 durability.

Carry Mini Nukes anywhere in your regular inventory, hold the launcher, and use it to fire in the direction you face. Each shot consumes one Mini Nuke outside Creative mode and one durability. The launcher has a 30-tick (about 1.5-second) cooldown; in Creative mode it can fire without ammunition but still uses durability.

The visible projectile leaves a smoke trail and detonates on hitting an entity or block, or after roughly five seconds in flight. Its blast has a radius of about 5 blocks (roughly 10 blocks across), can destroy terrain, and deals 100 points of direct damage to nearby living entities. It also applies Radiation to living entities caught in the direct blast.

Radiation lasts 9,600 game ticks (8 minutes). While affected, an entity takes half a heart of magic damage every 2 seconds; this damage cannot reduce it below half a heart. Normal effect-clearing mechanics remove it.

Napalmer

Craft Flamer Fuel from coal, blaze powder, and a slime ball; the recipe produces four: . Craft the Napalmer from copper and iron ingots, a blaze rod, redstone, and a stick: .

Hold the Napalmer and keep Flamer Fuel in your inventory, then use it to fire. Each fuel unit loads multiple shots; the weapon tracks its loaded shots and needs more fuel once they run out. Without fuel, it will not fire and reports that fuel is required. Players with Creative-mode flight/build abilities can fire without consuming fuel. Fired charges travel in the direction you look and explode on contact with an entity or terrain, damaging and igniting nearby targets. The fires linger, and the weapon has a very brief cooldown between shots.

Stimpack

Craft a Stimpack from golden carrots surrounding nether wart: . Stimpacks stack to 16.

Eat one from your hotbar or offhand like food; it is edible even at full hunger. On consumption, it removes harmful potion effects while leaving beneficial effects intact, grants Regeneration II for 8 minutes, and fills hunger and saturation. Each Stimpack is consumed on use.

Combat tips

• Carry the correct ammunition for each weapon; their power sources are not interchangeable.
• Use the Gatling Laser from open ground, the Tesla Cannon against clustered enemies, and explosive launchers at a safe distance.
• Mini Nukes can destroy terrain, and Napalmer blasts leave lingering fire, so take care around structures and stored items.
• Bring spare armor Fusion Cores for long trips, and keep Stimpacks available for harmful effects and recovery.
