DAI Comic Effects Data — v1.4.0 → v1.5.0

DAI 3.3 Modernization

• Updated Comic Effects for DAI 3.3.

• Updated managed ADDON metadata to v1.5.0.

• Preserved stable addon identity:

  • dai_comic_fx

• Preserved DAI-native reaction handling for player combat effects.

Event-Driven Combat FX

• POW remains driven directly by the DAI player_attack_entity reaction system for bare-hand attacks.

• WHAM remains driven directly by the DAI reaction system for weapon/tool attacks.

• No combat tick polling was added.

• Existing reaction conditions continue using DAI's centralized condition evaluator.

World-Space FX Optimization

• Reworked active comic text_display processing.

• Age, vertical movement, and expiration are now handled by one local display update function.

• Reduced active world-space effect processing from:

  • 3 global text-display scans per tick

  • to 1 global selection per tick

• Preserved existing 20 TPS movement.

• Preserved existing upward movement speed.

• Preserved the existing 16-tick world-space effect lifetime.

Creeper BOOM Timing Fix

• Corrected creeper fuse timing after the v1.4.0 environmental scan optimization.

• Environmental recognition remains at 10 Hz.

• Creeper fuse simulation now advances by 2 game ticks per sample.

• Restores the intended real-time BOOM trigger timing.

• Fixes the previous effective half-speed internal creeper countdown.

• Manual and naturally triggered creepers remain supported.

Repeatable CRASH Events

• Separated CRASH tracking from the generic environmental one-shot event state.

• Added dedicated CRASH rearming.

• Living entities can now trigger CRASH again after later qualifying hard falls.

• A previous CRASH no longer risks suppressing a creeper's later BOOM effect.

• Falling-block CRASH effects remain one-shot for the lifetime of the falling entity.

Environmental Recognition

• Preserved the optimized 10 Hz nearby environmental scan.

• Preserved overlapping-player entity-scan deduplication.

• Preserved automatic detection for:

  • Significant living-entity impacts

  • SPLASH water-entry events

  • Falling-block impacts

  • Lightning ZAP events

  • Primed TNT BOOM events

  • Creeper BOOM events

• Existing 32-block environmental detection range remains unchanged.
