# Immersive Chests — Update Changelog ## New Features ### Persistent Config Saving All Mod Menu settings are now automatically saved to a local config file and persist between game launches. Config file location: ```text /config/immersive-chests.json ``` This includes: - camera positioning - offsets - animation settings - orientation behaviour - yaw behaviour - Delay GUI settings - debug options No more resetting settings every restart. --- ### Delay GUI Opening Added a new optional immersive opening mode: ```text Delay GUI ``` When enabled, container GUIs are held briefly while the immersive camera animation plays, then open once the camera reaches the target. This creates a smoother “walk into the inventory” effect for: - chests - barrels - furnaces - crafting tables - boats with chests - minecart chests - supported modded containers --- ### GUI Release Tick Control Added a configurable timing system for delayed GUI opening: ```text GUI Release Ticks Before Finish ``` Controls how many ticks before the camera animation completes the GUI should appear. Examples: ```text 0 = GUI opens exactly at animation completion 2 = GUI opens slightly before completion 5 = GUI opens much earlier during the animation ``` This allows fine tuning between: ```text cinematic immersion vs instant responsiveness ``` --- ## Animation System Improvements ### Improved Moving Entity Tracking Chest boats and chest minecarts now track significantly more smoothly during opening animations. Entity-based containers now use: ```text live target tracking ``` instead of static interpolation, reducing drift while moving. --- ### Refactored Camera Architecture Large internal refactor of the camera animation system: - render-rate camera progression - centralized delayed GUI lifecycle - improved opening/closing phase handling - cleaner separation between: - camera state - GUI timing - target resolution - rendering This also improves stability for future updates and compatibility work. --- ## Bug Fixes ### Fixed Config Resetting Settings no longer revert to defaults between launches. --- ### Fixed Chest Remaining Open After Cancel Cancelling delayed GUI openings now properly closes the container state. --- ### Fixed Animation Timing Desync Resolved issues where GUI timing and animation completion could drift apart at slower animation speeds. --- ### Fixed Double Camera Tick Behaviour Removed duplicate animation progression paths that caused inconsistent animation speed and snapping behaviour. --- ## Notes - Delay GUI is optional and can be disabled at any time. - Existing configs from older versions may generate new default entries automatically on first launch.
