About Advanced Tower Defense Mod
From ModrinthA small mod that adds turrets and mechanisms that will greatly help in the defense of your fortress!
(Updates may be delayed here since I have issues with accessing modrinth from my country)
Welcome to Advanced Tower Defense! Here you will find many interesting and funny things that will help you with the defense of your fortress. So far, the modification only has the Middle Ages, but in the future there will be other branches of technology development!
-- Short guide on turrets --
How do I place a turret? - Take needed base (named in the description of the turret) and shift-click on the base. It should be deployed
How do I make my turret fire (AI base)? - Turret only attacking when they have enemy in radius and have winding mechanism in their base. Every turret has different radius.
How do I make my turret fire (Manual base)? - Turret deployed on a manual controlled base are controlled by player keybord arrows and fires on binded button in settings.

I created this mod for quite long and hard.. There were many failures and mistakes, but I was able to make something quite interesting. I hope this mod will find its audience and surprise Minecraft players with its new things. In addition, this is my first work, which I decided to bring to the finished state. I hope you like it, I will be grateful for warm words of support! :D
