A new SkyWars version is being deployed to all regions. This update adds a custom server option to enable a new projectile physics experiment.

Developer Note

Our projectile physics have always felt a little off. This update brings our projectiles more in line with vanilla Minecraft.

This should make projectiles feel a lot better, including removing the weird arc that Hive projectiles have when shooting upward.

We want your thoughts on these changes, so we have made this a custom server option. Anyone who plays a game with this setting enabled will be sent a Mailbot survey. So, please let us know your thoughts via that survey or on our Discord.

These changes do not indicate future changes; we only want to gauge the community's feelings/feedback surrounding projectiles.
