Pointblank Projectiles (VPB) - Projectile System Instead of Hitscan
This modification completely replaces the shooting mechanics from Vic's Point Blank, transitioning from the hitscan system (where damage is applied directly to entities in the crosshair) to a projectile system based on Minecraft's standard projectile mechanics.
The main advantage of this approach is significantly improved compatibility with other mods that previously worked incorrectly or didn't function at all.
Enhanced Compatibility
The mod now correctly interacts with:
- First Aid mod - medical assistance system
- Legendary Survival Overhaul mod - comprehensive survival overhaul

Realistic Ballistics
Since real projectiles are now used, bullet drop appears at long distances. Powerful weapons, such as sniper rifles, have less trajectory drop compared to light weapons.
