🚀 Orbital Shape Cannon
Call down flat, perfectly shaped TNT strikes from orbit — circles, stars, hearts, gems and the full nuke.
✨ What is it?
Orbital Shape Cannon adds orbital strike rods to your server. Aim at the ground, right-click, and a shell falls from the sky and bursts above your target. Every TNT of the payload spawns on that one burst point and expands outward into a flat shape, then the whole formation drops together and detonates on the ground.
Pick a shape, grab the rod, and fire.
🔥 Features
- 14 payload shapes, all perfectly flat
- Expanding burst: all TNT spawn on a single point and spread out into the shape, then fall together
- The Nuke: a centre charge plus up to 15 concentric rings of TNT (1305 TNT, reaching 148 blocks)
- One-shot rods: a plain fishing rod with only a name and 1 durability that breaks on use in every game mode
- Fire anywhere: summon strikes by command at any coordinates in any dimension, with
~support - Chunk Eater: wipe an entire chunk, from the top of the world to the bottom, spread over several ticks so the server stays smooth
- Optional bedrock breaking for the Chunk Eater, toggled in game
- Fully configurable: shape size, TNT density, explosion power, speed, cooldown and more
- Tab completion for every command
- Wide version support: 1.21 – 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3 (Bukkit API: Spigot, Paper, Purpur)

📜 Commands
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/gives <payload type> <amount> |
Gives you Shot rods for that payload. Amount is 1–64. Players only. |
/oss <payload type> <x y z> [dimension] |
Fires a strike at a location. ~ ~ ~ works for relative coordinates. The dimension can be overworld, the_nether, the_end or a world name; if left out, your current world is used. |
/chunkeater <x y z> [dimension] |
Removes every block in the chunk at that location. ~ ~ ~ and dimensions work like /oss. |
/ossconfig chunkeater-break-bedrock <true|false> |
If true, the Chunk Eater can also break bedrock. Default is false. |
Console and command blocks can use /oss and /chunkeater too (the console needs absolute coordinates and a dimension).
🎣 How to use a rod
- Run
/gives star 5(or any payload type) to get rods. - Hold a rod and right-click the block you want to hit (up to 500 blocks away).
- The rod breaks and the strike begins. There is a short cooldown between shots.

⚠️ Good to know
- Strikes create a lot of TNT (the nuke is 1305 at once). Use it on servers that can handle it, and lower
nuke-ringsorsizeif needed. - The Chunk Eater is permanent. Back up your world first.
- Rods can only be obtained with
/gives.
