Replaced direct setting changes with a draft-and-apply workflow. \* Settings changes are now saved only after selecting \*\*Apply\*\*. \* Resetting settings now changes the draft first instead of immediately overwriting the saved configuration. \* Closing the settings with unsaved changes now opens a confirmation dialog. \* Returning from a settings subpage now opens the Home page before closing the interface. \* Improved interface spacing and readability. \* Improved interface behavior on smaller window sizes. \* Improved interface behavior on wider window sizes. \* Improved button sizing, margins, grid placement, and footer positioning. \* Improved scrolling behavior throughout the settings pages. \* Improved entity-list scrolling so movement remains aligned with visible rows. \* Improved search focus handling after rebuilding the entity list. \* Improved tooltip placement and target-rule explanations. \* Improved external-link handling with Minecraft’s standard confirmation workflow. \* Expanded aim strength from four levels to five. \* Retuned all aim-strength response values. \* Retuned target-stickiness behavior for every strength level. \* Changed older aim-strength values during migration to preserve approximately equivalent behavior. \* Expanded target selection beyond basic smooth switching. \* Reworked target scoring around the selected priority mode. \* Improved Crosshair priority by favoring targets closest to the player’s current view. \* Improved Nearest priority by favoring physical distance. \* Improved Lowest Health priority by considering the target’s remaining health percentage. \* Improved Threat priority by favoring mobs currently targeting the player. \* Improved Balanced priority by combining angular and physical distance. \* Priority entities now receive an additional selection advantage. \* Blocked entities are now rejected before target scoring. \* Improved active-target stability with hysteresis. \* Improved target switching so a new candidate must provide a meaningful advantage. \* Improved tracking outside the normal selection angle by using a strength-based sticky angle. \* Improved target validation for dead, removed, invisible, distant, obstructed, and cross-world entities. \* Improved target-angle calculations using the center of the entity’s bounding box. \* Improved target scanning so normal selection is refreshed approximately every two client ticks. \* Improved performance by validating the current target between full target scans. \* Separated target selection from camera rotation. \* Target selection is now performed during client ticks. \* Camera movement is now applied during rendered frames. \* Improved camera smoothness across different frame rates. \* Improved frame-time handling by limiting unusually large smoothing steps. \* Improved ranged assistance with movement lead and projectile-drop compensation. \* Improved bow assistance by adjusting prediction according to charge duration. \* Improved charged-crossbow handling by allowing already-loaded crossbows to remain eligible. \* Improved melee assistance with gentler response scaling. \* Improved dynamic aim-point behavior by using upper-body aiming for ranged weapons and center aiming for melee. \* Improved camera-control priority so direct player movement can cancel automatic tracking. \* Improved camera restoration so it returns to the view captured before the first target was acquired. \* Improved camera restoration so switching directly between targets does not replace the original return position. \* Improved restoration completion with precise final camera alignment. \* Improved target locking so it freezes the currently tracked target instead of searching for a new one. \* Improved target locking so locked entities must remain valid within the configured range and sticky view angle. \* Improved item eligibility checks. \* Bow and crossbow assistance now respects the \*\*Bow Use\*\* setting. \* Charged crossbows can remain eligible without being actively used. \* Melee assistance now uses a separate melee range. \* Optional non-weapon assistance now supports other held items and an empty hand. \* Improved supported melee-item classification for swords, axes, spears, and tridents. \* Replaced the general mob-targeting control with separate hostile and passive controls. \* Improved player and invisible-target filtering. \* Improved modded-entity handling through registry-based discovery. \* Improved Blocked and Priority rule management so one entity cannot remain in both lists. \* Improved target outlining so only the current active target receives the forced glowing state. \* Improved target HUD validation. \* Target information is now hidden while another interface is open. \* Target information is now hidden when the target dies, is removed, changes worlds, or AutoAim cannot operate. \* Improved target HUD layout so its width adjusts to the displayed content. \* Improved notification placement and timing. \* Improved repeated notification handling by replacing the previous message cleanly. \* Retained the server-side opt-in requirement introduced in AutoAim 1.0.1. \* Improved multiplayer join handling by recording server capability when the session begins. \* Improved multiplayer safety so unsupported servers cannot enable AutoAim.

the default ranged distance to 24 blocks. \* Updated the default melee distance to 8 blocks. \* Updated the default view angle to 24 degrees. \* Updated the default target HUD mode to \*\*Off\*\*. \* Updated the default keybinds: \* \`K\` opens or closes the AutoAim interface. \* \`J\` enables or disables AutoAim. \* \`N\` locks or unlocks the active target. \* Updated the configuration revision to revision 6. \* Updated the main release JAR naming format. \* Updated compatibility for supported Minecraft, Fabric Loader, Fabric API, and Java versions. ### Fixed \* Fixed unstable switching

while another game interface is open. \* Removed support for keeping an invalid locked target active. \* Removed outdated default preset behavior from older configuration revisions. ### Security \* AutoAim continues to require explicit server-side opt-in for multiplayer use. \* A multiplayer server must advertise the \`autoaim:server\_opt\_in\` networking capability before AutoAim can be enabled. \* The client checks for server support before applying aim rotation. \* Servers opt in by installing a compatible AutoAim server component that registers the required capability. \* The server capability acts only as an opt-in marker and does not control attacks or player rotation. \* AutoAim does not send an opt-in payload merely to activate its features. \* AutoAim is automatically disabled when joining an unsupported multiplayer server. \* AutoAim cannot be enabled when the current multiplayer server has not opted in. \* Optional confirmation is shown before enabling AutoAim on a supported multiplayer server. \* Multiplayer approval applies only to the current session. \* Multiplayer approval and detected server capability are cleared after disconnecting. \* AutoAim does not include automatic attacks or clicks. \* AutoAim does not manipulate attack packets. \* AutoAim does not manipulate rotation packets. \* AutoAim does not control server-side hit detection. \* AutoAim does not include anti-cheat bypass features. \* AutoAim does not attempt to hide its operation from servers. \* AutoAim does not provide permission bypasses. \* AutoAim does not target through walls when the line-of-sight requirement is enabled. \* External Donate and Bug Report links use Minecraft’s confirmation screen before opening. \* Malformed configuration files are backed up before safe defaults are restored. \* Configuration values are normalized and limited to supported ranges before use. \* Players remain responsible for following the rules of every multiplayer server. ### Notes \* AutoAim provides camera assistance only. \* AutoAim does not automatically attack, click, or use items. \* AutoAim retains the multiplayer opt-in system introduced in version 1.0.1. \* A compatible server-side component is required for multiplayer use. \* The dedicated server component only advertises support; it does not perform aim calculations. \* Singleplayer and integrated local servers do not require multiplayer opt-in. \* Multiplayer approval is reset after leaving the server. \* Enabling or disabling AutoAim with the toggle key during a session is not automatically written to the configuration file. \* Permanent settings changes are saved through the \*\*Apply\*\* button. \* Ranged aim assistance currently supports bows and charged crossbows. \* Generic modded ranged weapons are not automatically supported unless they behave as a supported bow or crossbow type. \* Supported melee weapons include swords, axes, spears, and tridents. \* Melee weapon detection uses the explicitly supported item list. \* Other held items and an empty hand require the optional \*\*Any Item\*\* setting. \* Bow assistance can be limited to active weapon use. \* A charged crossbow remains eligible while the \*\*Bow Use\*\* requirement is enabled. \* Ranged prediction considers target movement and projectile drop. \* Ranged prediction is not a complete projectile-physics simulation. \* Prediction does not account for every form of drag, collision, shooter movement, or modded projectile gravity. \* Target line-of-sight checks can be enabled through \*\*Visible Only\*\*. \* Blocked entities are never selected. \* Priority entities receive a selection advantage but must still pass all normal validity checks. \* Target locking only locks the currently tracked target and does not search for a new one. \* The target outline uses Minecraft’s normal glowing appearance. \* Custom outline colors are not currently available. \* Target notifications display one message at a time. \* Target information is hidden while another interface is open. \* Configuration hot reloading is not currently supported. \* Existing configuration files are migrated automatically where possible. \* Invalid configuration files are moved to an \`autoaim.json.broken\` backup when possible. \* Older compatibility fields may remain in the configuration to support migration. \* English and Indonesian are included; Minecraft’s selected language controls which translation is displayed. \* Keybinds can be changed through Minecraft’s standard Controls menu. \* Available features and behavior remain consistent across supported AutoAim builds. \* Minecraft, loader, API, and Java requirements depend on the specific AutoAim file being downloaded. \* AutoAim 2.0.0 builds include both client and dedicated-server entrypoints where required. \* Backing up the existing configuration before updating is recommended.
