A while back in the factions community a client called AceClient was released which had the feature to track TNT/Sand by drawing a path in the direction it travels. Recently, it was discovered that this client had an IRC. Many players decided to remove the client in order to protect themselves from harm.
Many players used this client for technical purposes while creating cannons etc. TNT/Sand Breadcrumbs was a very useful tool and I wish to see it recreated as a mod usable through Forge/LiteLoader. Breadcrumbs essentially traces the path TNT/Sand travels in the form of an entity. For example, if I set off a piece of TNT in the air, Breadcrumbs would track it's path as it falls.
It is clearly seen that this is similar to mods such as Tracers, meaning that it would be fairly easy to replicate for TNT/Sand.
The mod itself is pretty simple, but here are a list of features which would be beneficial:
Different colors for TNT/Sand paths. For example, TNT would have a red path while sand would have a green one.
Accurate paths for TNT/Sand entities
Feature to toggle breadcrumbs on/off by the use of a key or option etc.
Honestly, I think this would be very useful and something a lot of people would like to see after AceClient was exposed for having an IRC.
Breadcrumbs in action, indicated by the red/green lines (0:20). The video is not mine, but it does a good job of showing Breadcrumbs.
Breadcrumbs can also be seen in this video (2:24).
Thanks in advance for whoever is able to create a mod for this, as it is something many cannoners and factions players want.
I'm a cannoner for factions. I make all kinds of cannons, and I want to get a better insight into how cannons work.
To do this, I really want a mod that traces the path of such entities. I was planning on buying the AceClient, until factions got disbanded
because they were enemy to the developer of Aceclient, apex.
He simply used the in-build IRC to run commands through the client, such as /f disband, a command to really mess a faction up for those who not know what factions is. If you are one of those people, you probably still don't know it. Whatever.
I'll try to contact a couple of modders, they can give this a try.

This sounds like a great idea. Hope someone takes the time to do it. +1
Sounds great, hyped to see what you come up with. Of course this is still available to others though.

Any updates on the development of the Mod? Very curious to see what you come up with.
Sounds great. :^]
