This is a simple mod that allows players to throw fireballs just like mobs do, for example, the "blaze." It is a server-side modification that works in both singleplayer and multiplayer. To throw a fireball, you need to right-click while holding a fireball in your main hand. Be warned that if you shoot a fireball beyond the world's render distance, the fireball will stop in the air, and you will have to use the command "/kill @e[type=minecraft:small_fireball]" or wait for the fireball to despawn.
