Military simulation enhancement mod for TaCZ — Realistic ballistics, ricochet, suppression, and immersive gun mechanics.

---

✨ Features

🎯 Ballistics & Penetration

• Ricochet System — Bullets bounce off hard surfaces at shallow angles
• Penetration System — Bullets pierce through blocks with damage/velocity reduction
• Configurable angles, chances, speed multipliers, and max bounces

🔊 Distant Fire Sounds

• Dynamic gunfire sounds based on distance:
  • Close: Full sound
  • Medium/Far/Very far: Progressive muffling and reverb
• Per-caliber configuration via JSON
• Auto-fallback to default sounds

💨 Bullet Whizz & Suppression

• Bullet Whizz — Fly-by sounds when bullets pass near players
• Suppression System:
  • Visual effects (blur, vignette, desaturation)
  • Camera shake (aim punch)
  • Intensity based on proximity and bullet speed

🎮 Free Aim

• Independent gun movement from camera
• Configurable max deviation angles
• Smooth interpolation
• Optional crosshair following

🏃 Movement System

• Crawling — Reduced height for going prone
• Sitting — Adjusted dimensions for seated positions
• Configurable heights and eye levels

✨ Ricochet Effects

• Particle effects (sparks) when bullets ricochet
• Configurable per-block-type via JSON
