Fireball Predictor

Smart Projectile Owner Tracking

• Multi-Tier Owner Inference Engine: Client-side 5-tier inference engine (Native NBT -> Server Packet -> Environmental Sweep -> Dispenser Fallback -> Unknown/Command) that deduces origin for all hostile and neutral projectiles.
• Hierarchical Owner Filtering: Tiered configuration featuring a global master toggle (trackProjectiles), mob-master toggle (trackMobProjectiles), individual mob switches (Blaze, Ghast, Ender Dragon, Wither), non-mob master toggle (trackOtherOwnerProjectiles), and per-source switches (Player, Dispenser, Command).
• Player Deflection Re-attribution: Projectiles punched or hit by players (such as Ghast fireballs) automatically re-attribute ownership to PLAYER, hiding prediction highlights unless player tracking is enabled.

Server-Side Tracking Restrictions

• Server Enforcement of Owner Filters: Servers can now disable prediction tracking for the "other" owner category on their server via config/fireballpredictor-server.json — either the whole group (disableOtherOwnerTracking) or individual sub-options (disablePlayerTracking, disableDispenserTracking, disableCommandTracking).
• Live Rule Sync: Restrictions are pushed to clients with a new TrackingRulesPayload on join and are enforced client-side, overriding local config (including the deflection bypass). /fireballpredictor reload reloads the server config and re-syncs all connected players without a restart.

Performance & Stability

• Memory & Thread Safety: Resolved client-side memory retention in owner caching and ensured background trajectory computations run completely thread-safe.
