Air Support

The Air Support modification was originally created for the Invasion modpack by Darkosto and offers players a unique ability to call in air-dropped supplies with parachutes for various gameplay scenarios.

Main Features

Using special remote controls, players can call in three types of air-dropped containers:

• Utility containers - contain useful resources
• Medical containers - with healing items
• Livestock containers - with various mobs

Item Crafting

Circuit Boards

Circuit boards serve as the main component for crafting all three types of remote controls.

Livestock Remote Control

This remote allows calling containers with living creatures. When the container is broken, it spawns a mob specified in the configuration file.

Medical Supply Remote

Used to call containers with healing resources. By default, they contain golden apples and enchanted golden apples. With the Rough Tweaks mod installed, the drops change to medical kits from that mod.

Utility Supply Remote

Allows calling containers with any items specified in the configuration file. By default, they contain redstone dust, iron ingots, and circuit boards.

Configuration Settings

Adding Mobs to Livestock Containers

To add custom entities, you need to edit the configuration file. The entry format depends on the Minecraft version.

Version 1.20.1:

modName:entityName,weightedProbability

Example for modded mobs:

"animalium:rat,10"

Example for vanilla mobs:

"minecraft:cow,10"

Multiple entries are separated by commas:

livestock_in_crates = ["minecraft:zombie,1", "minecraft:cow,5", "minecraft:pig,3", "animalium:bear,1"]

Configuring Items in Utility Containers

Version 1.20.1: Drops from utility and medical containers are now handled through block loot table JSONs and can be modified using custom datapacks.

Older versions:

modName:itemName,amount,metaData,itemWeight

Additional Features

Unexpected Surprises

When this option is enabled, there's a chance that using a remote will spawn TNT or zombies on parachutes instead of regular supplies. The probability is configurable.
