Sticky Bomb

Quickstart

1. Craft a Sticky Bomb using the recipe below — you'll get 2 per craft.
2. Hold a Sticky Bomb in your hand and right-click to throw it.
3. The bomb flies through the air and latches onto whatever it hits — a block or a mob.
4. After 2 seconds, it explodes with TNT-level force. Back away fast!

Overview

Sticky Bombs are throwable explosives that adhere to their target on contact, then detonate after a short fuse. They're ideal for setting traps, dealing burst damage to tough mobs, or demolishing structures at range. Found in the Combat creative tab.

What It Adds

How To Use

• Right-click (use item) to throw the Sticky Bomb in the direction you're facing.
• The bomb travels in an arc with slight gravity, similar to a snowball.
• On contact with a block or mob, it immediately sticks in place and the 2-second fuse begins.
• After the fuse expires, it detonates with a custom sound effect and a powerful explosion.
• A 1-second cooldown applies after each throw — you can't spam them rapidly.
• In Creative mode, your supply is not consumed and the cooldown still applies.

Crafting And Obtaining

Sticky Bombs are crafted in a shaped pattern using TNT, Slimeballs, and Gunpowder. Each craft yields 2 Sticky Bombs.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Sticky on impact: The bomb freezes in place the moment it touches any block surface or entity, including mobs, players, and other entities.
• 2-second fuse (40 ticks): Once stuck, a countdown begins before detonation.
• TNT-strength explosion: The blast radius and power are equivalent to a standard TNT explosion and interact with the world the same way (blocks can be destroyed, items dropped, etc.).
• No discrimination: The explosion damages everything nearby — mobs, players, and structures alike. Keep your distance!
• Throw cooldown: After throwing, there is a 1-second cooldown before you can throw another.

Progression And Strategy

• Mob traps: Throw a Sticky Bomb at a wall or floor near where enemies will walk. The 2-second fuse gives you time to retreat before the blast.
• Stuck on mobs: Hitting a mob directly attaches the bomb to it — great for dealing concentrated burst damage without relying on proximity.
• Stack management: Bombs stack to 16, so carry a few stacks for extended fights or exploration.
• Self-damage awareness: The explosion is centered on wherever the bomb stuck. Always ensure you're out of blast range before detonation — the explosion will damage you just as readily as your enemies.
• Cooldown timing: Plan throws carefully in fast-paced combat since you can only throw one per second.
