When firing bows and crossbows, most arrows will now deflect slightly more than in the vanilla game. Your jumps and movements affect the deviation from the original trajectory. Arrows with effects deflect more. If you're holding a bow or crossbow in your non-primary hand, the deflection will be greater.
This mod doesn't affect the deflection of potions, tridents, snowballs, fireworks, etc. I might add this in the future.
