# BuffMobs 4.0.1 ## Fixed - **Fixed a crash on startup in Minecraft 26.2 (Fabric).** The game could fail to launch with a `ConcurrentModificationException` while BuffMobs was registering its "Open Config" key binding. BuffMobs now registers the key in a way that works on 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3.

Hello everyone, I am back after a while away to announce BuffMobs 4.0! This time it took a lot of work because I dropped the Cloth Config dependency to build a brand new configuration menu. This new menu is implemented one way for NeoForge on versions 1.21.1 up to 1.21.11, and another way for both NeoForge and Fabric from version 1.21 all the way to 26x. The mod now has several new features that will certainly cause me support issues in the future, but hey, that is what we are here for 😅. Once again, thank you all for the support. It is thanks to you that I keep updating the mod and trying to bring new things to it. Remember, if you encounter a bug or have a suggestion, please open an [Issue](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues) at our GitHub. That is pretty much it, thanks for using my mod :) BUFFMOBS 4.0.0 CHANGELOG BuffMobs 4.0.0 is the biggest update to the mod so far. It expands BuffMobs from basic stat and difficulty scaling into a complete mob progression and combat customization system, featuring generated equipment, Elite mobs, elemental traits, special abilities, world events, scaling rewards, adaptive difficulty, progression resets, and a brand new built in configuration screen. This release is designed to be safe to install over an existing setup. Existing configuration keys and gameplay defaults were preserved, and every major new gameplay system is disabled by default until you turn it on. Compatibility details: * Minecraft versions: 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.X * Loaders: NeoForge and Fabric * Cloth Config: No longer required * Existing worlds and configs: Fully compatible * New gameplay systems: Disabled by default ✨ HIGHLIGHTS * A completely new built in BuffMobs configuration screen replaces the old Cloth Config screen. * Mobs can now spawn with generated armor setups that improve as the world progresses. * Rare Elite mobs can appear with stronger stats, generated roguelike names, particles, notifications, and bonus rewards. * Buffed mobs can receive one of six elemental traits: Flame, Frost, Toxic, Voltaic, Vampiric, or Armored. * Individual mob types can be given special abilities such as Deathrattle, Last Stand, Teleport, and Summon. * Stronger mobs can now provide better rewards through scaled XP and extra loot rolls. * Optional Blood Moons and Adaptive Difficulty make world difficulty respond to time and player performance. * Pack Aggression lets nearby mobs of the same type join a fight. * Passive mobs converted to neutral or hostile behavior are now fully integrated with the rest of BuffMobs. * New progression reset commands let server operators reset progress without changing world time. * English, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese localization were completed and expanded. 🖥️ NEW BUILT IN CONFIGURATION SCREEN BuffMobs now has its own independent configuration GUI. Cloth Config is no longer needed, and the NeoForge Config button works whether Cloth Config is installed or not. * All 250 settings are available in game with no TOML only options. * Settings are organized into 24 categories with additional subcategories for larger systems. * Changes are applied and saved immediately. * Modified settings are highlighted and can be reset individually to their default values. * Categories are shown two per row when both titles fit to keep the main menu compact. * Long category names automatically use a full row instead of being cut off. * Option labels use the full width of the row and can wrap onto a second line. * List based settings open in a dedicated list editor. * Preset slots are labeled Preset 1 and Preset 2 by default, and update dynamically if custom names are entered. To open the screen, go to Mods, then BuffMobs, then Config. 🎮 NEW GAMEPLAY SYSTEMS All systems in this section are optional and disabled by default. Enable only the ones that fit your world or modpack. Generated Mob Armor: * Eligible buffed mobs can spawn wearing generated armor that becomes stronger over time. * Armor tiers unlock by in game day: Leather on day 0, Gold on day 7, Iron on day 14, Diamond on day 30, and Netherite on day 60. * Each tier has its own selection weight, with Gold more likely in the Nether and Diamond or Netherite in the End. * Choose between a Full Set or Random Pieces setup, with configurable counts and separate piece chances. * Mixed Armor Tiers rolls the tier independently for every piece. * Armor enchantments unlock and gain levels as days pass, respecting incompatible enchantment rules. * Optional curses can appear on generated armor with separate toggles and chances. * Generated armor does not drop by default, but drops can be enabled with a configurable chance. * Additional mob IDs from other mods can be marked as valid armor wearers. Elite Mobs: * Buffed mobs can occasionally become powerful Elite variants with configurable chance and day scaling. * Elites receive additional health and damage multipliers, visible custom names, and ambient particles. * Tamed mobs and filtered mobs are never made Elite, and existing custom names are preserved. * Nearby players can be notified when an Elite spawns or is first approached. * Killing an Elite grants bonus XP and extra loot rolls. * Generated names create roguelike names from random prefixes and titles, fully translatable per player language. * Name colors include standard presets, Random, and custom hex colors. * Particle choices include Snowflake, Electric Spark, Random, and None. Loot and XP Scaling: * Dropped XP can scale with the mob effective buff strength up to a configurable cap. * Mobs can roll their loot table extra times instead of duplicating stacks. * Fractional extra loot rolls become a chance for one additional roll. * Blood Moon bonuses and Elite kill rewards stack with this system. Elemental Traits: * A buffed mob can receive exactly one weighted trait that coexists with Elite status. * Flame sets targets on fire and resists fire damage. * Frost applies Slowness and resists freezing. * Toxic applies Poison and cleanses Poison from itself. * Voltaic chains extra damage and resists lightning. * Vampiric heals from dealt damage and cleanses Wither. * Armored permanently gains extra armor and toughness. * Includes master toggles, individual weights, configurable durations, and particle selectors. Pack Aggression: * Attacking one buffed mob pulls nearby members of the same entity type into the fight. * Works with direct player attacks and projectiles, excluding creative and spectator players. * Configurable search radius, max additional mobs, and pull cooldown. Special Abilities: * Abilities can be assigned using modid:mob_id:ability_id, with multiple abilities supported per mob. * Deathrattle triggers an explosion, poison cloud, summoned minions, or a random effect on death. * Last Stand grants Resistance once per life below a health threshold. * Teleport gives a chance to teleport behind the attacker with configurable distance and cooldown. * Summon periodically spawns minion types with an alive cap and combat only options. Blood Moon: * Recurring dangerous nights where buffed mobs receive an additional multiplier. * Configurable intervals, global start and end notifications, glowing effects, doubled scaled rewards, and optional spawn duplication. Adaptive Difficulty: * World difficulty reacts to player performance, with deaths increasing an adaptive multiplier and kills reducing it. * Counters are saved per world and layer on top of normal scaling. Progression Reset Commands: * Server operators with permission level 2 can reset progression without editing world data. * /buffmobs reset all confirm resets scaling, adaptive difficulty, Blood Moon, and mob state. * /buffmobs reset scaling confirm restarts day progression from day 0. * /buffmobs reset adaptive confirm clears adaptive counters. * /buffmobs reset bloodmoon confirm restarts the cycle from the current day. * /buffmobs reset mobs clears and reinitializes loaded mob state and one time features. 🔧 EXISTING SYSTEMS IMPROVED * Passive Mob Aggression: Passive mobs converted to neutral or hostile behavior are treated like hostile mobs, receiving full attribute scaling, status effects, Elite status, traits, abilities, and scaled damage calculations. * Harmful Effects: Poison, Slowness, and Wither can be enabled or disabled individually, choosing randomly from enabled effects. * Mob Presets: Default internal names for Preset 1 and Preset 2 default to default and boss, making default mappings work smoothly without manual naming. * Reloading and Debugging: /buffmobs reload reapplies generated armor, Elite status, traits, and abilities on loaded mobs. /buffmobs debug reports mob Elite status, traits, and abilities with localization. * More Controlled Randomness: Added random Elite name colors, random Deathrattle effects, random armor pieces, and random particles per mob. 🌐 LOCALIZATION * English, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese are fully updated for version 4.0.0 with 727 matching keys across all languages. ⚠️ UPGRADE NOTES * Back up your world and config/buffmobs.toml before updating. * Existing TOML files remain compatible with automatic addition of new settings. * All new gameplay systems are disabled by default. * Cloth Config is no longer required. * Use /buffmobs reload to update loaded mobs, and /buffmobs reset mobs to re roll one time features. A world backup is strongly recommended before testing this version. Since a lot has changed, I cannot guarantee that everything will work completely normally; it is basically a pre release disguised as a release :p

Hello everyone, I am back after a while away to announce BuffMobs 4.0! This time it took a lot of work because I dropped the Cloth Config dependency to build a brand new configuration menu. This new menu is implemented one way for NeoForge on versions 1.21.1 up to 1.21.11, and another way for both NeoForge and Fabric from version 1.21 all the way to 26x. The mod now has several new features that will certainly cause me support issues in the future, but hey, that is what we are here for 😅. Once again, thank you all for the support. It is thanks to you that I keep updating the mod and trying to bring new things to it. Remember, if you encounter a bug or have a suggestion, please open an [Issue](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues) at our GitHub. That is pretty much it, thanks for using my mod :) BUFFMOBS 4.0.0 CHANGELOG BuffMobs 4.0.0 is the biggest update to the mod so far. It expands BuffMobs from basic stat and difficulty scaling into a complete mob progression and combat customization system, featuring generated equipment, Elite mobs, elemental traits, special abilities, world events, scaling rewards, adaptive difficulty, progression resets, and a brand new built in configuration screen. This release is designed to be safe to install over an existing setup. Existing configuration keys and gameplay defaults were preserved, and every major new gameplay system is disabled by default until you turn it on. Compatibility details: * Minecraft versions: 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.X * Loaders: NeoForge and Fabric * Cloth Config: No longer required * Existing worlds and configs: Fully compatible * New gameplay systems: Disabled by default ✨ HIGHLIGHTS * A completely new built in BuffMobs configuration screen replaces the old Cloth Config screen. * Mobs can now spawn with generated armor setups that improve as the world progresses. * Rare Elite mobs can appear with stronger stats, generated roguelike names, particles, notifications, and bonus rewards. * Buffed mobs can receive one of six elemental traits: Flame, Frost, Toxic, Voltaic, Vampiric, or Armored. * Individual mob types can be given special abilities such as Deathrattle, Last Stand, Teleport, and Summon. * Stronger mobs can now provide better rewards through scaled XP and extra loot rolls. * Optional Blood Moons and Adaptive Difficulty make world difficulty respond to time and player performance. * Pack Aggression lets nearby mobs of the same type join a fight. * Passive mobs converted to neutral or hostile behavior are now fully integrated with the rest of BuffMobs. * New progression reset commands let server operators reset progress without changing world time. * English, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese localization were completed and expanded. 🖥️ NEW BUILT IN CONFIGURATION SCREEN BuffMobs now has its own independent configuration GUI. Cloth Config is no longer needed, and the NeoForge Config button works whether Cloth Config is installed or not. * All 250 settings are available in game with no TOML only options. * Settings are organized into 24 categories with additional subcategories for larger systems. * Changes are applied and saved immediately. * Modified settings are highlighted and can be reset individually to their default values. * Categories are shown two per row when both titles fit to keep the main menu compact. * Long category names automatically use a full row instead of being cut off. * Option labels use the full width of the row and can wrap onto a second line. * List based settings open in a dedicated list editor. * Preset slots are labeled Preset 1 and Preset 2 by default, and update dynamically if custom names are entered. To open the screen, go to Mods, then BuffMobs, then Config. 🎮 NEW GAMEPLAY SYSTEMS All systems in this section are optional and disabled by default. Enable only the ones that fit your world or modpack. Generated Mob Armor: * Eligible buffed mobs can spawn wearing generated armor that becomes stronger over time. * Armor tiers unlock by in game day: Leather on day 0, Gold on day 7, Iron on day 14, Diamond on day 30, and Netherite on day 60. * Each tier has its own selection weight, with Gold more likely in the Nether and Diamond or Netherite in the End. * Choose between a Full Set or Random Pieces setup, with configurable counts and separate piece chances. * Mixed Armor Tiers rolls the tier independently for every piece. * Armor enchantments unlock and gain levels as days pass, respecting incompatible enchantment rules. * Optional curses can appear on generated armor with separate toggles and chances. * Generated armor does not drop by default, but drops can be enabled with a configurable chance. * Additional mob IDs from other mods can be marked as valid armor wearers. Elite Mobs: * Buffed mobs can occasionally become powerful Elite variants with configurable chance and day scaling. * Elites receive additional health and damage multipliers, visible custom names, and ambient particles. * Tamed mobs and filtered mobs are never made Elite, and existing custom names are preserved. * Nearby players can be notified when an Elite spawns or is first approached. * Killing an Elite grants bonus XP and extra loot rolls. * Generated names create roguelike names from random prefixes and titles, fully translatable per player language. * Name colors include standard presets, Random, and custom hex colors. * Particle choices include Snowflake, Electric Spark, Random, and None. Loot and XP Scaling: * Dropped XP can scale with the mob effective buff strength up to a configurable cap. * Mobs can roll their loot table extra times instead of duplicating stacks. * Fractional extra loot rolls become a chance for one additional roll. * Blood Moon bonuses and Elite kill rewards stack with this system. Elemental Traits: * A buffed mob can receive exactly one weighted trait that coexists with Elite status. * Flame sets targets on fire and resists fire damage. * Frost applies Slowness and resists freezing. * Toxic applies Poison and cleanses Poison from itself. * Voltaic chains extra damage and resists lightning. * Vampiric heals from dealt damage and cleanses Wither. * Armored permanently gains extra armor and toughness. * Includes master toggles, individual weights, configurable durations, and particle selectors. Pack Aggression: * Attacking one buffed mob pulls nearby members of the same entity type into the fight. * Works with direct player attacks and projectiles, excluding creative and spectator players. * Configurable search radius, max additional mobs, and pull cooldown. Special Abilities: * Abilities can be assigned using modid:mob_id:ability_id, with multiple abilities supported per mob. * Deathrattle triggers an explosion, poison cloud, summoned minions, or a random effect on death. * Last Stand grants Resistance once per life below a health threshold. * Teleport gives a chance to teleport behind the attacker with configurable distance and cooldown. * Summon periodically spawns minion types with an alive cap and combat only options. Blood Moon: * Recurring dangerous nights where buffed mobs receive an additional multiplier. * Configurable intervals, global start and end notifications, glowing effects, doubled scaled rewards, and optional spawn duplication. Adaptive Difficulty: * World difficulty reacts to player performance, with deaths increasing an adaptive multiplier and kills reducing it. * Counters are saved per world and layer on top of normal scaling. Progression Reset Commands: * Server operators with permission level 2 can reset progression without editing world data. * /buffmobs reset all confirm resets scaling, adaptive difficulty, Blood Moon, and mob state. * /buffmobs reset scaling confirm restarts day progression from day 0. * /buffmobs reset adaptive confirm clears adaptive counters. * /buffmobs reset bloodmoon confirm restarts the cycle from the current day. * /buffmobs reset mobs clears and reinitializes loaded mob state and one time features. 🔧 EXISTING SYSTEMS IMPROVED * Passive Mob Aggression: Passive mobs converted to neutral or hostile behavior are treated like hostile mobs, receiving full attribute scaling, status effects, Elite status, traits, abilities, and scaled damage calculations. * Harmful Effects: Poison, Slowness, and Wither can be enabled or disabled individually, choosing randomly from enabled effects. * Mob Presets: Default internal names for Preset 1 and Preset 2 default to default and boss, making default mappings work smoothly without manual naming. * Reloading and Debugging: /buffmobs reload reapplies generated armor, Elite status, traits, and abilities on loaded mobs. /buffmobs debug reports mob Elite status, traits, and abilities with localization. * More Controlled Randomness: Added random Elite name colors, random Deathrattle effects, random armor pieces, and random particles per mob. 🌐 LOCALIZATION * English, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese are fully updated for version 4.0.0 with 727 matching keys across all languages. ⚠️ UPGRADE NOTES * Back up your world and config/buffmobs.toml before updating. * Existing TOML files remain compatible with automatic addition of new settings. * All new gameplay systems are disabled by default. * Cloth Config is no longer required. * Use /buffmobs reload to update loaded mobs, and /buffmobs reset mobs to re roll one time features.

# BuffMobs Changelog ## 3.3.4 - Minecraft 26.3 Compatibility Fix Available for both **Fabric** and **NeoForge**. ### Fixed - **Crash on Minecraft 26.3 when a ranged mob switched to melee.** Skeletons, Strays, Pillagers, Piglins and any mob listed in `customRangedMobs` could crash the game or server the moment they swung their melee weapon at a player. - **Same crash risk in the fallback melee behavior** used for ranged mobs that are not standard pathfinding mobs. - **Passive Mob Aggression on Fabric** used the same attack animation call and is now protected as well. - **NeoForge failed to start on Minecraft 26.3.** NeoForge 26.3 renamed its `COMMON` config type to `LOCAL`, which stopped the mod from loading. BuffMobs now detects the correct type automatically, so it works on 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3. - **NeoForge crash on Minecraft 26.3 during melee hits.** The knockback sync used a field that no longer exists in 26.3. It is now resolved safely at runtime. ### Improved - Melee swing animations are now handled in a version-safe way, so the mod keeps working across Minecraft 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3. - If a swing animation ever cannot be played, the mob still attacks normally and a warning is logged instead of crashing. ### Notes - No configuration changes. Your existing config files keep working as-is. - No gameplay changes: melee and kite behavior, weapons, enchantments and scaling are unchanged.

# BuffMobs v3.3.2 Changelog Welcome to the latest update of **BuffMobs**! This release brings two major quality-of-life improvements: more flexible dimension scaling and a complete overhaul of passive mob aggression. Read on to see what’s new. --- ## 🚀 New Features ### 1. Dimension Scaling – Choose Your Mode Previously, dimension multipliers always stacked with other modifiers. Now you can decide how they apply: - **SCALING** *(default)* – the classic behaviour: dimension values multiply with your global attribute multipliers, day scaling, and presets. - **OVERRIDE** – dimension values directly replace the base stats of the mob, ignoring all other multipliers (except presets if you choose to override them). This gives you full control over per‑dimension difficulty. You’ll find the new dropdown in the config screen under *Dimension Scaling → Mode*. ### 2. Passive Mob Aggression – Three States, More Control The old on/off toggle is gone. In its place, a three‑state selector lets you fine‑tune how passive mobs behave: - **OFF** – passive mobs stay completely vanilla (no retaliation, no buffs). - **NEUTRAL** – mobs will fight back when hit (like vanilla neutral mobs) and **receive all mod buffs** (health, damage, speed, etc.). - **HOSTILE** – mobs become actively hostile toward players on sight and **also receive all buffs**. Now you can turn any passive mob into a real threat – perfect for challenging survival runs or custom map packs. > **Note:** When NEUTRAL or HOSTILE is selected, affected mobs are treated exactly like hostiles for buff application, so they scale with your global settings, day scaling, and presets. --- ## ⚙️ Configuration Updates - The config GUI (Cloth Config) now includes the new mode selectors for both features. - The `passiveMobAggression.enabled` option has been removed – upgrade your config or let the mod regenerate it with the new default values. --- ## 🛠️ Under the Hood - Refactored buff application logic to support the new dimension mode. - Passive mob AI now dynamically switches between `HurtByTargetGoal` (neutral) and `NearestAttackableTargetGoal` (hostile) based on the selected mode. - Cleaned up debug commands to reflect the new setting. --- As always, your feedback is welcome! Enjoy the new flexibility and happy hunting. 🎮

Now you can turn any passive mob into a real threat – perfect for challenging survival runs or custom map packs. > **Note:** When NEUTRAL or HOSTILE is selected, affected mobs are treated exactly like hostiles for buff application, so they scale with your global settings, day scaling, and presets. --- ## ⚙️ Configuration Updates - The config GUI (Cloth Config) now includes the new mode selectors for both features. - The `passiveMobAggression.enabled` option has been removed – upgrade your config or let the mod regenerate it with the new default values. --- ## 🛠️ Under the Hood - Refactored buff application logic to support the new dimension mode. - Passive mob AI now dynamically switches between `HurtByTargetGoal` (neutral) and `NearestAttackableTargetGoal` (hostile) based on the selected mode. - Cleaned up debug commands to reflect the new setting. --- As always, your feedback is welcome! Enjoy the new flexibility and happy hunting. 🎮

# Changelog - Buffmobs v3.3.1 Hello everyone! It's been a while since the last update as there were no new Minecraft versions or open GitHub issues to address. However, thanks to [elhertz (Hertz)](https://github.com/elhertz), who provided great suggestions and reported several bug fixes, we have a brand new update! --- ## 🚀 Key Features & Enhancements * **Health Synchronization System:** * Implemented a health sync system to resolve an issue where mobs spawned with the total HP assigned by the mod without it being properly filled. * **Dimension Max HP Cap:** * Added a configurable maximum HP ceiling per dimension, allowing you to set specific health limits for mobs depending on the dimension they spawn in. * **Preset Override System:** * Added an option to choose whether a preset stacks its buffs on top of base additions or uses only the values specified within the preset itself. --- ## 🐛 Bug Fixes * **Zombie Leader Balance / Option:** * In vanilla Minecraft, Zombie Leaders can naturally spawn with significantly higher HP. Combined with Buffmobs, this caused them to turn into nearly immortal tanks. * Added a configuration option to disable Zombie Leader spawns. * *Note:* Since there is no simple way to reliably force-spawn this mob variant in code for testing, please report any continuing issues on our GitHub: [https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues). --- ## 📝 Developer Note > "I attempted to overhaul the configuration GUI for this release, but it ended up causing more bugs than improvements so I decided to shelf it for now—graphic design is definitely not my passion! 😅 > > Thank you all for your continued support and for using **Buffmobs**!" *** *Enjoy the new release! Feel free to leave feedback or report bugs on GitHub.*

# BuffMobs v3.1.0 Hello everyone! I am releasing another update focused on quality of life improvements and important bug fixes. ### 🛠️ Bug Fixes * Fixed an issue in **NeoForge 1.21.1 and 1.21.11** where *Cloth Config* was not saving settings correctly. ### ✨ New Features * **Expanded Customization:** Thanks to a great suggestion from [@Dustfired](https://github.com/Dustfired) in [Issue #16](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/16), it is now possible to buff any mob by adding them to the `allowlist` or `presets`, regardless of whether they are animals, passive, neutral, or hostile creatures. ### 🐛 Reporting Issues I highly recommend that everyone updates as soon as possible. If you encounter any further issues, please do not hesitate to open an issue on our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues). --- Thank you all for continuing to report bugs and for using my mod; your feedback is what motivates me to keep updating it!

# BuffMobs v3.0.9 Hello again! I am releasing another hotfix today. Unfortunately, I mistakenly placed the language file for the Fabric version in the wrong directory, which was causing the issue reported in the previous version (v3.0.8). ### 🛠️ Bug Fixes * **Fabric Version Only:** Since this bug was specific to the way the Fabric version handles "client" and "server" separation, this fix applies exclusively to the Fabric edition of the mod. If you are playing on a dedicated server environment and were experiencing issues with the language files or command output, updating to this version will resolve the problem. ### 🐛 Reporting Issues If you continue to encounter any problems, please let me know by opening an issue on our [GitHub](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues). --- Thank you for your patience and for using **BuffMobs**! :D

This release specifically addresses a recently discovered bug affecting modded environments. ### 🛠️ Bug Fixes * Fixed an issue where the `/buffmobs debug` command failed to display information correctly in modded environments, resulting in raw, broken text lines instead of functioning properly. ### 🐛 Reporting Issues If this issue somehow persists in your gameplay, or if you run into any new bugs, please let me know by opening an issue on our [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues) page. ### 💖 Special Thanks This bug was discovered and documented thanks to [@iseizuu](https://github.com/iseizuu) in [Issue #15](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/15). Thank you so much for reporting this, as it was a very specific condition that helped improve the mod! --- We highly recommend that everyone experiencing this issue update to this version. Thank you all for your continuous support and for using **BuffMobs**! :)

# Changelog - BuffMobs ## [3.0.7] Hello again! I’m back with a new update to iron out some kinks and keep your experience smooth. This version focuses on stability and cleaning up some legacy bugs from the 3.0.0 overhaul. ### 🛠 Bug Fixes * **Issue #14 Resolved:** Fixed a critical bug reported in [Issue #14](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/14). Since the codebase was entirely rewritten in version 3.0.0, this bug had unfortunately impacted all recent versions. * **Combat Draft Cleanup:** Fixed an issue where killing a mob with "Combat Draft" enabled would result in the mob dropping an uncraftable potion. ### 🔄 Changes * **Buff Indicators:** I have removed the physical potion drop mentioned above. Instead, you will now see visual effects indicating a mob has been buffed. > **Note:** I chose this path because a "proper" fix for the potion item would have required external APIs or making the mod mandatory on both the client and server sides—and I want to keep this mod as lightweight and flexible as possible! --- Have a great game, and thank you so much for using my mod! :)

## [3.0.3] — buffmobs-3.0.3+mc1.21.11-fabric ### 🐛 Bug Fix — Compatibility with multithreaded mods **Fixed a crash when running BuffMobs alongside mods that process entities on multiple threads.** BuffMobs internally tracks which mobs have been initialized using `HashSet` and `HashMap` structures. These are not thread-safe — when another mod processes entities in parallel, multiple threads can read and write to these collections at the same time, causing a `ConcurrentModificationException` and crashing the server. This patch replaces all affected collections in `MobTickHandler` with their thread-safe equivalents (`ConcurrentHashMap` / `ConcurrentHashMap.newKeySet()`). No behavior, configuration, or feature has been changed — only the underlying data structures. --- ### ✅ Confirmed fix - **[Async](https://github.com/AxalotLDev/Async)** — Fabric mod that parallelizes entity processing for better performance. Running Async + BuffMobs previously caused consistent crashes at startup or during play. ### 🔧 Likely fix for similar mods Any mod that moves entity ticking or world ticking to worker threads may have triggered this same issue. This includes mods such as: - **[Lithium](https://github.com/CaffeineMC/lithium-fabric)** (with certain async optimizations) - **[FerriteCore](https://github.com/malte0811/FerriteCore)** (memory/threading optimizations) - Other performance mods that offload entity processing If you were experiencing random `ConcurrentModificationException` crashes with any of these in your modpack, this update should resolve it. --- ### 📋 Related - Issue reported by the community: [#12 — Crash with Async mod](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/12) - Special thanks to the [humidityorder](https://github.com/humidityorder) for identifying the root cause and providing the necessary details to track it down. 🙏 --- > 📦 Source & Issues: [github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs) > 🐛 Found another bug?

# Changelog --- ## buffmobs-3.0.2+mc1.21.1-fabric ### ⚔️ New: Combat Draft Mobs now drink a potion when they're about to die. When a mob's health drops low enough, it pulls out a regeneration potion and heals itself — complete with a drinking animation and sound. Undead mobs can't benefit from regeneration, so they get an absorption shield and a direct heal instead. You can configure how low their health needs to be, how strong the heal is, how long the cooldown is, and even limit how many times a mob can use it per life. ### 🛡️ New: Absorption Hearts Mobs can now be granted absorption hearts as a status effect — the yellow hearts that act as a shield before real health is lost. Works differently for undead mobs, which receive the shield directly instead of through the effect. ### 🎯 New: Kite Behavior Ranged mobs now have a second close-range behavior option: instead of switching to a sword, they can flee to maintain their shooting distance. You can set all ranged mobs to kite, all to melee, or let each mob randomly pick one when it spawns. ### 🧩 New: Mob Presets You can now assign custom stat profiles to individual mobs by ID. For example, make the Ender Dragon 3× tougher and the Wither hit twice as hard, while a zombie stays at default strength. Four presets come built-in (`default`, `boss`, `elite`, `weak`) and there's a fifth empty slot for whatever you need. Preset stats stack on top of the global multipliers. ### 🌍 New: Per-Dimension Scaling Each dimension can now have its own separate multipliers for health, damage, speed, and armor. Going to the Nether? Mobs can be twice as tough there. The End? Even harder. Up to 5 dimensions can be configured independently. ### 🔍 New: Mod ID Filter Beyond filtering by mob ID or dimension, you can now filter by the mod that added the mob. Want to buff only vanilla mobs? Or only mobs from a specific mod? Both are possible. ### 📅 Improved: Day Scaling Notifications You can now choose whether to receive a chat notification every single day, or only on the days when the difficulty actually increases. ### 🔧 Improved: `/buffmobs reload` Running `/buffmobs reload` now also reloads the config file from disk, so you can change settings and apply them without restarting the server. ### 🐛 Bug Fixes - Mob buffs are now properly removed when the mod is disabled while the game is running. - Fixed a bug where ranged mobs in melee mode could stack speed boosts on top of each other. - Fixed absorption shields not holding their value correctly between game ticks. - Invalid preset mappings in the config now show a clear warning in the log instead of failing silently. --- 🐛 Found a bug?

# BuffMobs v3.0.2+mc1.21.1-neoforge ## 🐛 Bug Fixes ### Ranged/Melee Switching & CombatDraft not working with other mods The root cause was a critical flaw in the mob initialization system that prevented both features from ever activating in a modded environment. - **Fixed: Mobs were never being registered as initialized.** The `PENDING_INIT` queue used a shared list across all dimensions. Since `LevelTickEvent` fires separately for each loaded dimension, the tick from any dimension (e.g. The Undergarden, AE2 Spatial Storage) would clear the entire queue before the correct dimension had a chance to process it — so mobs were silently dropped and never set up. - **Fixed: The per-dimension tick counter was running up to 6× too fast.** With 6 active dimensions each firing `LevelTickEvent`, the global counter advanced 6 ticks per real tick. The 20-tick update cycle (AI behavior, CombatDraft checks) was running far more often than intended. - Both features now work correctly alongside mods that add extra dimensions (Deeper and Darker, The Undergarden, AE2, etc.). ### `/buffmobs reload` not fully reinitializing mobs After a reload, mobs had their buffs reapplied but were not re-registered in the initialization tracker. This caused the tick system to attempt reinitializing them again on the next cycle, which could double-apply buffs. The command now correctly re-registers mobs after reapplying all buffs, AI setup, and CombatDraft state. The configured version has also been fixed, thanks to dustfired [Issue #11](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/11) --- > Found a bug or have a suggestion?

# BuffMobs v3.0.1+mc1.21.1-neoforge ## 🆕 New Features ### CombatDraft Mobs now drink a potion when they fall below a configurable health threshold, triggering a burst of regeneration to keep the fight going. Fully configurable — health threshold, regen level, duration, cooldown, max uses per life, and a per-mob whitelist/blacklist. - Living mobs receive **Regeneration** when low on health. - Undead mobs receive **Absorption + a direct heal**, since Regeneration harms them. - The potion effect **stacks on top** of the mob's existing buff level — if a mob already has Regen I and CombatDraft is set to level 3, it temporarily gains **Regen IV**, then returns to baseline when it expires. - Full drink animation and sound, just like a player. ### Ranged/Melee Switching Ranged mobs (skeletons, pillagers, piglins, strays) now react when a player gets too close, instead of just standing there shooting. Three behavior modes: - **MELEE** — switches to a sword and chases the player. - **KITE** — retreats to maintain distance and keep shooting. - **RANDOM** — each mob independently picks one of the two above on spawn. Switch distance, melee speed, and which mobs count as "ranged" are all configurable. You can also add custom mob IDs to the ranged list. ### Melee Weapon Progression When a ranged mob switches to melee mode, it equips a generated weapon based on how many in-game days have passed and which dimension it's in. Weapon tiers and their unlock days are fully configurable. Weapons can also receive enchantments that scale with progression — Sharpness, Fire Aspect, Knockback, and Sweeping Edge, each with their own unlock day and max level. ### Mob Presets Assign custom stat multipliers to specific mobs. Define up to 5 named presets (e.g. `boss`, `elite`, `weak`) and map any mob ID to one of them. Preset multipliers stack on top of the global settings, so a `boss` zombie can be dramatically stronger than a regular one. ### Dimension Scaling Configure separate stat multipliers for up to 5 dimensions. Mobs in the Nether or End can have different health, damage, speed, and armor values than Overworld mobs. ### Absorption for Undead Undead mobs with the Absorption amplifier configured receive a proper extra health shield that depletes before their normal HP — same behavior as the player effect. --- ## ⚙️ Config Screen (Cloth Config) The in-game GUI now covers every available setting, organized into collapsible subcategories. Every option has a tooltip describing what it does. --- > Found a bug or have a suggestion? [Open an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues).

# BuffMobs 3.0.0mc1.21.11 — Changelog Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay on this release, Mojang made a lot of breaking changes between 1.21.10 and 1.21.11 that took a while to sort out. It's finally here though, and this version comes with a brand new feature I think you'll really enjoy. Details below. Don't worry, now that I've finally sorted out the mod's package structure, 3.0 will be coming to other versions too. Thanks for using the mod! For bug reports and suggestions: [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues) | [Repository](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs) --- ## 🆕 New Features ### CombatDraft Hostile and neutral mobs will now drink a regeneration potion when their health drops below a configurable threshold (default: 20% HP). - Uses the vanilla drink animation and sound, identical to a player drinking a potion - **Living mobs** receive Regeneration IV for 10 seconds by default - **Undead mobs** receive Absorption + an instant heal instead, since Regeneration damages them - Cooldown between uses and a max uses per life option (0 = unlimited) - Supports whitelist and blacklist to control which mobs can use it - Slime, Magma Cube and Ghast are permanently excluded ### Ranged Mob Behavior — Kite Mode Ranged mobs now have a second close-range behavior option alongside the existing melee switch. - **MELEE** — ranged mobs equip a sword when the player gets close - **KITE** — ranged mobs flee to maintain a safe shooting distance while still looking at the player - **RANDOM** *(default)* — each mob individually picks MELEE or KITE on spawn, creating natural variety --- ## 🔧 Improvements & Fixes ### Attribute Scaling — All Layers Now Stack Previously, Presets completely overrode Attributes and Dimension Scaling. Now all three layers always stack: - **Multipliers** (HP, damage, speed, attack speed): `attributes × dimension × preset × day` - **Flat additions** (armor, toughness): `(attributes + dimension + preset) × day` ### Status Effects - **Speed** effect was present in the config but was never actually applied to mobs — fixed - **Absorption** added as a new configurable effect option - Regeneration is now correctly skipped for undead mobs across all code paths ### Mob Initialization Buffs were silently failing on freshly spawned mobs because they were being applied before the mob's attributes were fully registered. Fixed by deferring the buff to the next tick after the mob joins the world. ### Ranged Mob Return to Ranged Mode Mobs in melee mode were not reliably switching back to ranged when the player moved away. Fixed by resetting the mob's target and navigation on exit, adding a 2.5 block hysteresis margin, and increasing the mode switch cooldown to 3 seconds. ### Build Version The version string is now auto-generated as `{mod_version}mc{minecraft_version}` (e.g. `3.0.0mc1.21.11`), applied to both the JAR filename and the version shown in-game. --- ## ⚙️ New Config Options | Section | New options | |---|---| | `effects` | `speedAmplifier`, `absorptionAmplifier` | | `rangedMeleeSwitching` | `behaviorMode` (MELEE / KITE / RANDOM) | | `combatDraft` | `enabled`, `healthThreshold`, `regenAmplifier`, `regenDuration`, `cooldownTicks`, `maxUses`, `useWhitelist`, `whitelist`, `blacklist` |

# Changelog ## [2.5.9] - Bug Fix Release This release focuses on fixing the preset system and config persistence issues reported in [Issue #10](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/10). --- ### 🐛 Bug Fixes #### Preset toggle no longer breaks mob stats Previously, disabling the mob preset system (or setting all multipliers to `1.0`) could cause mobs to spawn with double or triple their intended health. This happened because old stat modifiers were being saved to the mob's data and never properly cleaned up when presets were turned off. #### Config changes now save and load correctly Filters (mob, mod ID, and dimension) and preset mappings were using a data structure that the config library couldn't write back to. This meant any changes made to these lists including resetting to defaults would silently revert the next time the game launched. All affected fields have been fixed to use a compatible structure. #### Mobs from previous sessions are now corrected on startup When a server restarts, all loaded mobs are now re-evaluated against the current config. This ensures that mobs carrying leftover stat boosts from an older config (e.g., before disabling presets) get cleaned up automatically rather than keeping inflated stats forever. #### Disabling the mod now properly removes all stat boosts When the mod is disabled in config, mobs that had already been buffed will now have those bonuses removed. Previously, disabling the mod only prevented *new* buffs from being applied existing ones stayed. --- ### ⚙️ Technical Details - Fixed immutable list fields in `BuffMobsConfig` (`mobFilter`, `modidFilter`, `dimensionFilter`, `mobPresets.mobMapping`) that prevented the Jankson config serializer from saving user changes - Added `removeAllModifiers()` to properly strip all mod-applied attribute modifiers from a mob - Attribute modifier methods now always remove any existing modifier before deciding whether to apply a new one, preventing stacked modifiers from persisting across restarts - `MobTickHandler` now performs a forced re-evaluation of all existing mobs on server start (`forceReapply = true`), ensuring stale NBT data from previous sessions is overwritten - Simplified multiplier calculation logic that was incorrectly short-circuiting to `1.0` for presets with base multiplier ≤ 1.0, leaving old modifiers untouched

# BuffMobs v2.5.8 ## 🐛 Bug Fixes ### Fixed Ranged Mob AI System Crash - **Resolved:** Critical reflection error that prevented the mod from working in server environments ([#9](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs/issues/9)) - **Issue:** The ranged-to-melee switching feature was causing crashes with `NoSuchMethodException` in retail Minecraft - **Fix:** Improved reflection system to work with obfuscated method names in production builds - The mod now works flawlessly in both development and retail Minecraft environments ## 📝 Technical Details The ranged mob AI manager has been updated to detect methods by their signature rather than by name, ensuring compatibility across all Minecraft environments regardless of obfuscatio

## [2.5.7] - Ranged/Melee Switching Overhaul > Full source available at [github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs](https://github.com/Khotyz/BuffMobs) --- ### 🗡️ Ranged/Melee Switching — Fixed & Reworked The ranged/melee switching system has been completely overhauled. Skeletons, Strays, Piglins, and Pillagers will now properly switch to a melee weapon when you get close, fight you in melee, and switch back to their ranged weapon when you back away. **What was broken:** - Mobs would enter melee mode but never actually attack - The goal injection system silently failed on startup, meaning the melee AI was never active - Switching back to ranged mode sometimes gave the mob the wrong weapon **What changed:** - Rebuilt the AI goal injection using reliable reflection — the system now logs clearly on startup whether it initialized successfully or not - Melee mode now correctly sets the player as the mob's target and drives them toward you - Switching back to ranged mode always restores the mob's original weapon (bow or crossbow) correctly - Wither Skeletons removed from the ranged mob list — they are melee-only by nature and were causing erratic behavior - The cleanup on mob unload now also removes the injected melee goal, preventing ghost AI goals from persisting --- ### ⚔️ Weapon Progression — Fixed Melee weapon tiers (Stone → Iron → Diamond → Netherite) are now unlocked based on the **actual world day**, regardless of whether Day Scaling is enabled in the config. Previously, weapon tiers were calculated from the day scaling multiplier, which meant all tiers above Stone Sword were locked forever when Day Scaling was turned off. --- ### 🔧 Other Improvements - Enchantment level progression now also uses real world days instead of the scaling multiplier - Enchantment count scaling thresholds adjusted to be relative to the configured day interval, making them consistent across different scaling setups
