Explosive arrows are an admin only feature which gives you, well, explosive arrows. These don't cause destruction as long as explosions are toggled OFF.
I think they should be unbanned for OPs.
Thoughts?

Im neutral about it because yes, When explosions are off they are harmless, But there is the occasional Operator that will Just annoy people with it, Since the explosions cause Knockback.
i think a problem with this could be coreprotect wont log who did the explosions in the case an admin toggles them and someone misuses it, it would be difficult to trace
@lyicx#15974 admins shouldn't be toggling explosions anyway
@Ashaz#15975 yeah but they can and people still do, fuck it i do when i make an ass of people making dick builds at spawn.
It's a one-line change in the code to make it so that explosions from these arrows don't break blocks even when explosions are enabled. I vouch if we just do that.
^ I like Steven's idea and I'm glad to hear it's a quick change. Vouch for Steven's adaptation of the idea.
whats the point of having explosive arrows if they dont break blocks?
@zeseryu#15993 They have knock back effects
While I like the idea, I am very concerned with potential impacts this could have on server stability and performance. I recall there used to be an exploit that could lock up servers which involved explosives.
Neutral.
Object, even when admins use it, the tps drops like crazy.
Object see above
@simplynick#15999
If TPS apparently goes down when this is used then this should be banned for all admins too.
@Ashaz#16003 It's not banned for admins because we're more responsible, we know when to use it and when to stop because if the server crashes, we get more shit for it then a normal op.
@simplynick#16004
I've been using it the past 3-4 weeks and it's not been dropping TPS unless you use it on a spamming crossbow.
If an OP uses this to crash the server, they would get a permban request.
Edit: As it does lag on a spamming crossbow, does anyone know of any ways to prevent the server from lagging when this is used?
@Ashaz#16005 The TPS dropped multiple times yesterday when you were using it near spawn on players, you need to keep in mind that client lag and tps lag are two different things and both can cause trouble to both players and the server itself.
Do I trust all operators? No, this feature can easily crash the server and/or lag it while we admins try to find out who did it which is time-consuming to dig deep into logs.
Unless we redesign the way this feature works, My vote hasn't changed.

This is similar to the annoyance of a clownfish, so if adding, I would make it a shop item.
So I'm going to approve this suggestion, but with some of the considerations taken in on this ticket.
FS-227 - To make sure Explosive Arrows respect server explosive settings and do no damage if that is enabled.
FS-228 - To ensure we actually log any damage it does do into CoreProtect
FS-229 - To convert this into a shop item
FS-330 - To allow disabling of the item per player / globally at staff digression temporarily.
I'm hoping that's captured everything folks are concerned about, while still being able to make this possible for OP's to use in the future, let me know if I did overlook anything.
