Description

The particle effects from guns and ammo cannot be seen ~20 blocks from the player on 1.21.4 paper and probably other servers as well.
I have already talked with Paper support and the only option to increase particle render distance on paper is to contact the developer of the plugin.
This can be fixed by adding "force" at the end of the particle effect codes. An example of this is the command below, which allows you to see the explosion particle effect 100 blocks away West of you, when without the "force" added at the end you wouldn't see it.
/particle minecraft:explosion ~-100 ~ ~ 0 0 0 0 1 force

I will test and try to figure that out tomorrow, but don't guarantee that this will be implemented soon since for some reasons there are many different places/ways where particles are created/spawned for player/world etc.

Just FYI: the farther the particle is rendered, the more work the server/client has to do to work on the particle itself, the player(s), and the path the projectile is taking. This could decrease performance tremendously, dropping FPS and probably TPS as well. Just a forewarning if you try to test it or decide to add it.

Yeah I know it'd hurt performance, if you're able to make it a config togglable feature that would be great.

Are you using OptiFine or anything? I'm pretty sure you can increase the rendering distance from the client itself.
