About
The Shooting Star Addition is an unofficial addon for The Shooting Star [Demo] that extends the Stellar Remote with two additional skills, SA-01 Halley and SA-02 Luna. Halley calls down a comet at the player's crosshair, carving a frozen trench toward its target before it explodes into an icy crater with a glowing comet heart, frost rays, and a shock wave that can throw, damage, and freeze nearby creatures. Its sky darkens for the approach, revealing stars, the galaxy, and an aurora; the comet is accompanied by a fireball, debris, sparks, and flashes, with an on-screen marker helping players track it when it is out of view. Luna brings the moon down onto the crosshair, creating a deep, wide crater and leaving a moon made of edible cheese with a molten core; its impact also sends fissures, falling debris, and a damaging, burning shock wave across the surrounding land. Moon cheese can be placed or eaten, while molten moon cheese grants powerful temporary effects; Luna has its own cutscene, sounds, alarm, music, and remote-menu controls, and it cannot be used where there is no moon, such as the Nether. Both skills integrate with the remote's menu, HUD, cooldowns, and cutscenes, and offer power, damage, and speed controls; players can also configure strike sizes and terrain carving, while client-side settings adjust visual effects such as sky darkening, lighting flashes, and shader-pack rendering. The strikes can permanently alter the landscape, so the addon provides options to adjust or disable terrain carving, but the source recommends backing up worlds players want to preserve.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. 2 files in your config folder.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.7 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 7 are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of all 7 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
AI
AI was used for its code
Claude Code is named in the files of its repository.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
