Arrows

Hey, how would i keep a arrow from dipping and make it travel in a straight line and at high speed?

 

Make it travel in a straight line forever or just for a bit? Forever would be inpracticle (arrow goes on forever, needs to generate chunks etc) but if you just power then do this...

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onFire(ProjectileLaunchEvent event) {
 
    if(event.getEntity() instanceof Arrow) {
 
        if(event.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
 
            event.getEntity().setVelocity(event.getEntity().getVelocity().multiply(POWER GOES HERE - DEFAULT IS 1));
 
        } 
 
    }
 
}

 

i want it to travel in a straight line until another method removes it. BTW im making guns

If you are familiar with schedulers then set it's velocity every tick and then cancel that task when you want to remove it

 

I know how to but i can get the velocity right, because it starts going upwards. Also with the repeater thing there it stops ProjectileHitEvent being called

 

Keep setting it to the velocity that it had on spawn multiplied by a value
