🧩 VectorLock: Core — one menu, one engine, every add-on in its place

Running more than one Vector Lock add-on? Core is the hub that ties them together. Every Vector Lock add-on already works on its own — but the moment you run two or more, Core gives them a single shared menu, a single tick engine, one set of global preferences, and a master API switch that turns every feature on or off instantly.

Core is a lightweight, script-only Behavior Pack built on the Stable Script API — no Experiments required, and Achievements stay enabled on your world. Install it next to any Vector Lock feature add-on, or keep it ready for when you add your second one.

Original work — p7x939 (VectorLock Studio)

✅ Requirements & Compatibility

Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.21.70 or newer
Behavior Pack only — no Resource Pack, no texture changes
No Experiments — uses the Stable Script API only
Works in Singleplayer, Multiplayer and Realms (settings are per player)
Achievement-safe — flagged product_type: addon, so activating it does not disable achievements
Does not modify any vanilla block, item, entity or recipe — plays nicely with other add-ons

🧩 What It Does

Core is the control center for the Vector Lock suite. It does not add a gameplay power of its own — it makes every Vector Lock power you install behave like one polished, unified mod:

Install a Vector Lock feature add-on → its button appears in the Core menu automatically.
Remove that add-on → the button disappears just as cleanly. No config files, no setup.
Every installed add-on runs inside Core's single tick loop instead of each one spinning up its own — smoother performance the more add-ons you stack.

If Core is not installed, each add-on quietly falls back to solo mode and opens its own settings screen. Install Core later and every setting you already saved carries straight over.

✨ Features

🧭 One unified menu — Sneak + use a Compass. Every installed Vector Lock add-on is a button here, added and removed automatically.
◆ API master switch — one tap flips the whole suite to pure vanilla mode: every feature of every pack pauses instantly, and all your settings are kept. Tap again to bring everything back.
🕊️ Graceful shutdown — turning the API off never leaves you stuck: if you were flying you land safely, and a swapped-in totem returns your original offhand item.
🏆 Achievements screen — check your world's achievement-safety status in game, plus a clear list of what permanently disables achievements (Cheats, Experiments, Creative mode) — none of which this add-on needs.
📊 Status screen — every installed add-on reports its active systems in one place.
🎯 Shared Target Mode — All mobs / Hostile only / Passive only / Players only. Set it once and both Bow Aiming and Sword Aiming follow it.
🎛️ Global preferences — master switches for particle effects and sound effects across the whole suite.
🌐 Language toggle — English / ไทย for the in-game interface.
💾 Settings saved to the world — per player, and they survive removing and reinstalling the pack.
⚙️ One tick engine — shared scheduling for every pack, instead of one loop per add-on.

🎮 How to Use

Enter your world — a short welcome message confirms Core is running.
Sneak and use a Compass to open the Vector Lock menu.
Pick any installed add-on's button to configure it, or use Core's own screens: API, Achievements, Status, Preferences, Language, Help.

That's the whole control scheme — one item, one menu, no commands and no cheats needed.

📥 Installation

Download VectorLock-Core.mcaddon.
Double-click the file (or open it with Minecraft) — it imports automatically.
In your world settings, open Behavior packs and activate Vector Lock Core.
Activate any Vector Lock feature add-ons you want alongside it. No particular pack order is required — they detect each other when the world loads.
Enter the world and Sneak + use a Compass.

❓ FAQ

Do I need Core to use a Vector Lock add-on?
No. Every Vector Lock add-on works completely on its own. Core is recommended once you run two or more of them together.

Does Core add any gameplay feature by itself?
No — it is the hub: the menu, the settings, the shared engine. Install it with the feature add-ons you want.

Does it require Experiments?
No. Core uses the Stable Script API only, so no Experiments toggles are needed.

Will I still earn achievements?
Yes. Core is flagged product_type: addon per Minecraft's official spec, so your world stays Achievements Enabled. Note that enabling Cheats or Experiments, or switching to Creative, disables a world's achievements permanently — Core needs none of those.

I installed Core after already using an add-on. Do I lose my settings?
No. Settings are stored in the world per player, so everything you configured in solo mode appears in the Core menu right away.

Does it work in Realms and on servers?
Yes. Settings are per player, so everyone configures their own.

Do I have to order the packs a certain way?
No. The add-ons detect each other at world load and arrange themselves.
