Golf Ball
Discover a completely new gaming experience in Minecraft with the Golf Ball datapack! This dynamic modification transforms the player into an actual golf ball, creating a unique symbiosis of the classic blocky world and sports game mechanics.

🎮 Core Features
This modification completely transforms the familiar gameplay, allowing you to roll across the endless expanses of Minecraft with realistic hit and bounce physics. Two key commands will open the way to exciting adventures:
/function golf_ball:summon- turns the player executing the command into a golf ball/function golf_ball:respawn- returns the ball to the last shot position
⚙️ Physics Configuration
Basic Ball Parameters
Customize the movement mechanics by adjusting the following parameters:
Hit Strength - regulates the overall power of your shots (range: 0-100, default: 50) Energy Loss - determines the amount of energy lost during collisions (range: -100 to 0, default: -90) Collision Multiplier - adjusts the intensity of bounces (range: 0-100, default: 50) Vertical Shots - enables/disables the ability to shoot upwards (default: disabled) Collision Physics - activates/deactivates the collision detection system (default: enabled)
Surface Friction System
A carefully designed friction physics system allows the ball to behave differently on various surface types. Each value represents the percentage of speed retained per tick:
Normal Friction - standard terrain (90%) Fast Friction - smooth surfaces (95%) Slippery Friction - ice and similar materials (98%) Slow Friction - rough and uneven ground (85%) Very Slow Friction - areas with high resistance (80%)
💡 Usage Tips
To apply local commands to a specific ball, use the format: /execute as <player> on vehicle run scoreboard players set @s golf_ball.strength_percentage <value>
The "@s" selector refers to the golf ball currently being controlled by the player.
Surface friction values dramatically affect ball behavior - experiment to find the perfect settings for your gaming needs!
Remember that you can create unrealistic configurations for fun gameplay, but the physics will be quite unstable.
