Automatic Call of Duty Killstreak Progression (v5.0)
Eliminate mobs or players without dying to earn automatic inventory ordnance callouts:
Category 7: Battlefield Destruction, Craters, Debris & Shellshock
Every explosion processed by ExplosionEngine.java executes a multi-stage physical simulation:
Transforms crater rims into charred Blackstone, Basalt, Cobblestone, and glowing Magma Block veins.
Blasts hurl up to 18 chunks of shattered masonry and scorched earth into the air on ballistic arcs (FallingBlockEntity).
Close blasts trigger crimson blood-edge vignettes, ear-ringing audio suppression, and camera trauma.
Category 8: Studio Audio System & 4-Way Random Explosions
Engineered in 44.1 kHz 16-bit Mono Ogg Vorbis:
4-Way Randomized Impact Explosions
Every explosion (skyfall:explosion_generic, skyfall:explosion_distant) randomly selects one of 4 uploaded explosion sound files (explosion_blast1..4.ogg) layered with deep seismic sub-bass rumble (explosion_rumble.ogg) and randomized pitch (0.88x – 1.12x) so no two explosions ever sound identical. Overlapping gunfire and reloads never clip.
Category 9: How to Disable Settings Tutorial (Griefing, Fire, Fog, Shake)
You can customize or disable any destructive or visual feature in two ways:
Method A: In-Game GUI Screen (Press K)
Open the SKYFALL Tactical Configuration Screen to toggle block damage, fire spread, camera shake (0%–100%), fog, presets, and audio instantly.
Method B: Server/World Config File (config/skyfall-common.toml)
enableBlockDestruction = true # Set to false for Zero-Griefing Mode enableFireSpread = true # Set to false to stop fire placement enableFlyingDebris = true # Set to false to disable FallingBlock debris enableScorchedCraters = true # Set to false to stop Blackstone/Magma rims enableKillstreakRewards = true # Set to false to disable automatic killstreaks explosionRadiusMultiplier = 1.0# Scales blast size (0.1 to 5.0) explosionDamageMultiplier = 1.0# Scales entity damage dealt
