Point Blank FAQ
20 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I get started with Point Blank?
Craft the 
Arms Dealer Workstation first, since it's the core block for making guns, ammo, and attachments. From there, craft a basic firearm and matching ammunition, then use the workstation to keep yourself supplied.

The recipe is shown in JEI/REI once you have the mod installed, so look it up there rather than guessing. Place the workstation down and interact with it to open the gun-crafting interface.
How do I load and fire my gun?
Craft ammunition in the correct caliber for your weapon, then load it into the gun using the reload key or by interacting with the magazine. Aim and right-click (or your fire key) to shoot; check your keybinds if nothing happens.
Why won't my gun fire?
The most common causes are an empty magazine, the wrong ammunition caliber, or a gun that needs to be reloaded rather than just having ammo in your inventory. Make sure the ammo type matches the caliber listed on the weapon.
How do I know which ammo goes with which gun?
Each firearm lists its caliber, and ammo items like 
5.56mm, 
7.62mm, or 
12 Gauge are named by that caliber. Match the ammo name to the gun's caliber — for example, an 
AK-47 uses 7.62mm while an M4-style rifle uses 5.56mm.

Craft the attachment, then open the gun's attachment interface (usually via a keybind or the workstation) and place it in a compatible slot. Not every gun accepts every attachment, so check that the rail or muzzle type matches.
Can I put a suppressor on any gun?
No — suppressors are caliber- or platform-specific, which is why the mod has separate items like the 
AK-47 Suppressor and the 
AR/LMG Suppressor. Use the suppressor that matches your weapon's platform.

Craft or obtain the skin item (for example, the 
M4A1 ASIIMOV or 
L96A1 HYPERBEAST skin), then apply it to the matching weapon through the skin or workstation interface. Skins are cosmetic and don't change stats.

Fire rockets like the 
AT4 Rocket from a safe distance and never shoot at a wall or block right in front of you, since the explosion damages you too. Aim at open ground or enemies and keep clear of the blast radius.

It's designed to work alongside other gun and combat mods, but overlapping ammo or attachment systems can conflict, so test in a copy of your world first. Performance impact is usually modest, though many loaded weapons or entities firing at once can lower your framerate.
