About this project

What does Create: Ambush Safezones add?

Ambush Safe Zone

**An unofficial addon for Create Aeronautics: AMBUSH** (linked under Relations).
Not affiliated with or endorsed by the AMBUSH author.

Tired of getting shelled in your own living room? Place a **lodestone** in your base, and AMBUSH ship cannons will not target you anywhere within **32 blocks** of it. Standing in an active **beacon's** range works too.

How it works

  • **Place a lodestone.** You'll get a chat message confirming the safe zone is active.
  • **Break it** and the safe zone is gone.
  • Stand anywhere within the radius and no AMBUSH ship cannon will pick you as a target — big cannons, autocannons, swivel turrets, all of them.
  • **Beacons count too:** anywhere an active beacon gives you its effects, you're safe (turn this off in the config if you like).
  • **No shots from ships you can't see:** a ship cannon only targets you if nothing solid is between the ship and your eyes. Hills, walls, roofs and **leaves** hide you; glass and water don't.
  • **Ships lose track of you:** within 64 blocks, a ship that hasn't seen you for 10 seconds stops following you and holds where it is - go underground and it won't park above you. Further out, ships still head for your general area.
  • **TNT that can't reach you fizzles:** TNT dropped by an AMBUSH ship only explodes if a player is within 10 blocks of its height, so ships can't crater the surface above your tunnels. Your own TNT is never touched.
  • **Goat horn = come and get me:** blow any vanilla goat horn and every hostile ship is alerted to your position for 2 minutes. Safe zones and line of sight still protect you.
  • Ships still fly, fight each other, and shoot at you the moment you step outside. This protects *you in your base*, not the whole world.

Commands

Command What it does
/safezone Tells you whether you're protected right now, and whether the mod hooked into AMBUSH correctly
/safezone debug Toggles an on-screen notice whenever line of sight stops a ship from targeting you (shows the blocking block)
/safezone scan Registers lodestones that were placed **before** you installed the mod (within 16 blocks of you)

Configuration

Edit it in game (**Mods → Ambush Safe Zone → Config**, with Catalogue or any config-menu mod; changes apply instantly) or in config/ambush_safezone-common.toml.

Setting Default
radius 32 Protected radius around each marker, **1–50 blocks**. The zone is a **sphere** — it reaches the same distance up, down and sideways
markerBlock minecraft:lodestone Any block ID can be the marker
beaconsAreSafeZones true An active beacon's effect range also counts as a safe zone
requireLineOfSight true Ship cannons only target you with a clear line of sight (terrain, solid blocks and leaves block it; glass and airship hulls don't)
trackSightRange 64 Within this many blocks, a ship stops following you if it hasn't seen you for 10 seconds. 0 = off
tntHeightWindow 10 Ship TNT only explodes within this many blocks of a player's height (64 blocks sideways). 0 = off
hornAlertSeconds 120 How long a goat horn alerts every hostile ship to you. 0 = off

Requirements

  • Minecraft **1.21.1**, **NeoForge**
  • **Create Aeronautics: AMBUSH 1.1.6 or newer**

**Server-side only.** On a multiplayer server, only the server needs it; players can join without installing it (install it on the client too if you want the in-game config screen). In singleplayer, just drop it in your mods folder.

Good to know

  • Covers AMBUSH **ship cannons and TNT ships**. Crossbow and musket crew aboard the ships use normal mob AI, so close the windows.
  • If a future AMBUSH update changes the code this hooks into, the game **won't crash** — /safezone will simply report Hook: NOT APPLIED until the addon is updated.

MIT licensed. Contains no AMBUSH code.
