Nuke

☢ Nuke

A TNT block with a nuclear sign on it. Light it, hear the air raid siren, watch the countdown, and run. Then the crater swallows the whole landscape.

Made for minecraught.com.

Features

• Nuclear Bomb block: a glowing TNT with its own nuclear texture. Arm it like normal TNT: flint & steel, redstone, fire.
• Air raid siren: nearby players hear it coming from the bomb, and everyone else on the server hears it faintly, even in other worlds.
• Countdown: on-screen titles, bells, and Geiger-counter clicks that speed up as the fuse burns down.
• Defusable: break the bomb during the countdown to defuse it. The whole server is told who saved the day.
• Giant crater: a ragged, noisy crater (default 120-block radius, about 240 blocks across), dug over several ticks so the server doesn't freeze.
• The blast: a flash, a shockwave, and thunder that reaches far-away players later, like real sound does. Then fire, scorched ground and a 15-second mushroom cloud.
• Chain reactions: explosions set off nearby nukes instead of destroying them.
• Piston-proof: armed nukes can't be pushed around.
• Craftable (optional): 8 TNT around a Nether Star.

Commands & permissions

To keep nukes admin-only, deny nuke.use and set recipe: false. To allow them only in certain worlds, use worlds.

Configuration

radius: 120            # crater radius; work grows with radius^3, so bigger = laggier
depth-factor: 0.6      # depth below the center = radius * this
fuse-seconds: 10
blocks-per-tick: 40000 # lower = less lag, slower crater
scorch: true
mushroom-cloud: true
siren-everywhere: true
siren-far-volume: 0.3
broadcast: true
recipe: true
worlds: []             # empty = all worlds

Resource pack

The plugin offers players a small optional resource pack (hosted on minecraught.com) with the nuke texture and the air raid siren. Players who decline it still see a glowing TNT and hear the raid horn instead. Everything still works.

If your server already sends its own resource pack, the nuke pack is added alongside it, not instead of it.

Requirements

• Paper 26.3
• Java 25
