Sponj

26.1.2 - 5.0.0

BREAKING CHANGES

• This release targets Minecraft 26.1.2 and requires Java 25. It is not compatible with 1.21.x.

Changes

• Updated to Minecraft 26.1.2 / Architectury 20.0.7, built against official Mojang mappings.
• The connected-sponj limit is now explicit. A sponj's clear radius (6 + 3*(n-1)) and block budget (64 * n) both scale with the number of connected sponjes, so an unbounded wall would clear tens of thousands of liquid blocks in a single tick. That was previously bounded by an obscure quirk in the distance check; the count is now capped at 16 directly, with the reasoning recorded next to the constant. Small builds behave as before; very large sponj walls are bounded predictably instead of accidentally.
• The four sponge blocks were ~95% identical and now share two base classes — AbstractSponjBlock for the dry absorb/flood-fill and AbstractWetSponjBlock for the dry-out and drip particles. Behavior is unchanged.
• Sponj's local BlockUtils was moved into ChimericLib and is now shared.
• Added SponjAbsorptionRangeGameTest — 4 GameTests that pin the absorption bound.
