CannonX

CannonX is a Paper plugin in the VanillaX ecosystem by Scappi X Studios. It adds siege cannons with nation skins and events for war and claim plugins.

What it does

• Six siege guns from four regions of the world: falconet, bombard and mortar, plus the Chinese rocket cart, the Southeast Asian lantaka and the Ottoman şahi.
• Six shot types, loaded by hand: ram powder, load the shot, aim, then light the fuse.
• Eight nation skins (Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Finland, Germany, England, Rus). They change how a cannon looks, never its stats.
• Custom 3D models through a resource pack.
• Events for other plugins (CannonPlaceEvent, CannonFireEvent, CannonImpactEvent), so a nation plugin can decide when shots break blocks.

Works with

• NationsX: block damage only during a declared war.
• FactoryX: cannons unlock through the tech tree.
• CavalryX: the rouncey horse can tow a cannon.

Requirements: Paper 1.21.4+, Java 21 · Status: in testing
