Create Tiered Weapons That Scale Across All Levels
Tiered Weapon Builder Overview
CC's tiered weapon builder automatically generates the same weapon type across all your mod's material tiers—so a copper sword, iron sword, diamond sword, etc. are created from a single definition.
Implementation Process
1. Define your weapon type (sword, axe, or other melee weapon) with base damage and attack speed values.
2. List all material tiers your mod uses. Each tier should have distinct stats like durability multipliers or damage bonuses.
3. Call the tiered weapon builder with your weapon definition and tier list. It generates:
- One weapon item for each tier
- Correct damage and durability scaling per tier
- Consistent naming across all variants
- Automatic model and language file entries
4. Verify registration by checking that all tier variants appear in creative inventory with correct names.
This builder saves significant development time by eliminating manual weapon creation for each tier. Changes to weapon balance apply uniformly across all tiers, keeping your progression consistent.
