Stress Ball - Auto-Attack Baubles

This mod adds two new baubles inspired by Terraria: the Stress Ball and its upgraded version, the Pressure Ball. Both items require the Baubles mod as a dependency and are designed for Minecraft 1.12.2.

Features

Stress Ball

Automatically performs a left-click attack every 0.5 seconds when the player stands still and has no GUI open (e.g., inventory, chests, crafting tables).
Attack respects the weapon's attack speed: if the weapon's cooldown is longer than 0.5 seconds, attacks occur at the weapon's natural rate; if shorter, a 0.5‑second minimum interval prevents exceeding the invincibility frame limit.
Attack range is fixed at 3 blocks (same as default player reach).
Configurable item blacklist: if the player holds a blacklisted item in the main hand, no automatic attacks occur.

Pressure Ball

An upgraded version of the Stress Ball.
Also attacks automatically when standing still, but without any GUI restriction and includes a brief cooldown after moving.
In addition to the standard left-click attack, it can be configured to trigger right‑click actions for specific items (e.g., Tinkers' Construct shurikens, TConEvo spectres, PlusTIC laser guns).
Features a configurable entity blacklist (e.g., item frames, paintings, armor stands) to prevent accidental attacks.
Inherits the same attack range, cooldown mechanics, and item blacklist as the Stress Ball.
