Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[2.5.0] - 2026-07-27

Added

• 26 unit tests (up from 21) — new config validation tests for abilityCount, spawnChance, null tiers
• Config validation hardened — isValid() now checks all tier fields; old configs fall back to defaults

Changed

• Unified ability pool — abilities drawn from all trigger types mixed together
  • Cinder: 1 ability, Shade: 2, Doom: 3 (was per-type HURT/TICK/DEATH counts)
• Spawn rates increased — Cinder 40%, Shade 20%, Doom 10% (was 10%/5%/2.5%)
• Debuff pass — all HURT/TICK effects are level I, 3s duration (was II–III, 5s)
  • Chill no longer hardcoded to level III — uses config amplifier like everything else
• Version bump to 2.5.0

Removed

• BY_TRIGGER index (dead code — populated but never read since unified pool)
• Redundant shuffle in getRandomAbilities
• Stale metadata (fabric.mod.json still referenced Ember/Surge/Tempest)

Fixed

• Config validation missing abilityCount check — old configs silently got 0 abilities

[2.4.0] - 2026-07-26

Added

• Persistent tier state (TierSavedData.java) — mobs keep their tier (or rolled-nothing state) across world reloads
• Despawn cleanup (EntityRemoveMixin) — tier tracking cleaned up when mobs despawn, not just on death
• Immutable collection safety — codec deserialization wrapped in HashMap/HashSet to prevent crash

Fixed

• Duplicated nametags — mob.getName() was reading previously-set custom names; now uses getType().getDescription() for the base entity name
• Duplicated announcement — same fix in MobHurtTrigger chat message

Changed

• No particles on TICK abilities — status effects on mobs (Strength, Resistance, etc.) no longer show particles
• Combust quieted — silent area damage instead of explosion (no particles, no block damage)
• Version bump to 2.4.0

[2.3.0] - 2026-07-25

Added

• Configuration system (ModConfig.java) — JSON-driven config at config/infusedmobs.json with:
  • Per-tier overrides (spawn chance, ability counts, health/XP multipliers)
  • HURT/TICK effect durations and amplifiers
  • Inferno fire duration, Acid armor damage, Combust explosion power
  • Auto-generates defaults on first run
• Unit test suite (20 tests) — Pure-logic tests for DamageContext, MobTier, ModConfig, AbilityRegistry
• Fission split copies now receive full Ember-tier stats:
  • 3× health multiplier
  • 1 random HURT ability (no Fission/Combust to prevent infinite recursion)
  • 60% of boosted max health
  • Greyscale nametag

Changed

• Performance optimizations:
  • MobTickTrigger now iterates tracked UUIDs (O(tracked)) instead of scanning all entities (O(entities))
  • AbilityRegistry pre-indexes abilities by trigger type (EnumMap) for O(1) filtering
  • getRandomAbilities pre-sizes result list and copies candidate pool to avoid mutating cache
• Code cleanup:
  • Removed deprecated assignSplitAbility() method
  • Extracted helper methods in AbilityRegistry (registerHurtEffect, registerTickEffect)
  • Extracted announcement/firing logic in MobHurtTrigger
  • Extracted placeCopy() helper in SplitEffect
  • Consolidated nametag building in MobTierManager (setNametag shared method)
  • Replaced magic numbers with named constants (SPLIT_HEALTH_FRACTION, COPY_COUNT, COPY_OFFSET, TICK_INTERVAL, ARMOR_SLOTS)
  • Fixed typo "EMBERE" → "EMBER" in test assertions
  • Inlined single-use UUID local in MobDeathTrigger
  • Added MinecraftServer import in MobTickTrigger (removed fully-qualified reference)

Fixed

• MobSpawnMixin flag order: tier assignment now only runs on server level (no behavioral change, just cleaner)

[2.2.0] - 2026-07-25

Added

• Combust DEATH ability — explodes on death (configurable power)
• Strict ability spread — tiers now have fixed HURT/TICK/DEATH counts (Ember 1/0/0, Surge 1/1/0, Tempest 1/1/1)

Changed

• Renamed project from "MobAbilities" → "Infused Mobs"
• Elemental theme: tiers now Ember/Surge/Tempest (was Necro/...)
• Rebalanced tier spawn chances and multipliers
