SMP Vector 0.6.0

This is the first major remaster build after the original source was lost.

The goal of this update was not to reinvent the mod. It was to bring it back into a playable, readable, and properly coded state while keeping its original identity intact.

What This Update Focuses On

• Rebuilding the mod as a proper NeoForge 1.21.1 project
• Restoring old mechanics that had been lost, broken, or gutted
• Making combat easier to read through proper FX/SFX telegraphs
• Keeping the old item art style intact for this release

Virus

• Infected players glow again
• Virus progression is no longer as hollow as it was in the broken builds
• Virus-related combat now has clearer visual feedback

Combat and Item Restorations

• Resonator is a weapon again instead of a weird debug-like utility
• Reverse Lance of Reality is a dash weapon again, and dash damage scales with player speed
• Needle Anchor records coordinates on right click and sends enemies back there on hit
• Item of Nothing once again gives long invisibility with temporary slowness
• Invuability Charm once again grants true held immortality and burns durability while active
• Heavy Rain once again uses its proper player texture and restores flight during rain
• Phase Cuirass once again breaks positioning during combat
• The blindfold once again has its effects and its model back
• Biomass is food again
• Anomaly Bit and Manifest are back to being straightforward resources instead of padded pseudo-lore items

Manifest and Anomaly

• Key Manifest artifacts have been brought back into a more faithful working state
• Astral sealing has been stabilized and pushed back toward its intended identity
• Combination-vector items no longer break just because all vectors are enabled at once

Enchantments

The following enchantments have been restored and wired back into real gameplay:

• Purifying Flame
• Reverse Polarity
• Resonance Efficiency
• Wheel of Fortune

Commands

• infecttest has been restored

Combat Readability Pass

This release starts the visual remaster in the right place: not with sprite replacement, but with combat readability.

• Added telegraphs for virus infection
• Added telegraphs for Reverse Lance of Reality
• Added telegraphs for Needle Anchor
• Added telegraphs for Resonator
• Added seal-related visual effects for Astral Prison mechanics
• Added active visual feedback for Invuability Charm, Heavy Rain, and Phase Cuirass

Important Note

This is not the final remaster.

This is the version where the mod starts becoming itself again.
