I was just thinking about whether flares should be incuded in the game. They could be crafted in the same way as a torch but with gunpowder instead of coal. When you right click with the flare in your hand it could shoot toward where you are facing.
If say you were being swarmed but agressive mobs you could release the flare to supress them. For example they could all retreat for a certain time or be more vunerable to critical hits. Perhaps if you fired a flare at something flammable it would also catch alight. You could also place flares on the gorund and hook them up to redstone wires to make a repelant to hostile mobs. What do you think?
I had an idea like this a year ago... but different, you craft and arrow with a torch to create a flare, shoot it with your bow anywhere, and the torch will stick to that surface. Also, it will give of light when its still in its flight. :3

Yeah but what if you had arrows too? The computer would be confused. But a good idea.
I think flares are an option for Jeb, there was also a mod like it (but it wasn't called flares) so I'm betting most people also agree with having flares
It seems kinda strange for hostile mobs to just "back off" when near these flares, as they blindly walk into fire and sometimes in lava. Making mobs more vulnerable to critical hits is a bit overpowered, as a single critical from a diamond sword would obliterate them.

Curse PremiumWell, you're right about that... maybe you need to have them next to your bow? If it's gonna be added they need to think about it ^^
They still walk into flowing lava and fire.
Seems like a decent idea.
