Tick Smoothing

v0.0.0-beta.1 - First release

Tick Smoothing measures the server's real tick rate every tick and rescales time-based actions and world processes against it, so their wall-clock timing stays close to what it would be at a healthy 20 TPS. It does not raise your TPS — it hides the symptom.

Added

• Item & potion use: hooks ItemStack#getUseDuration instead of the base Item method, so it also catches modded consumables (potions, scrolls, food) that override use-duration in their own subclass — the case some other tick-compensation mods miss.
• Block breaking, bow & crossbow: mining progress, bow draw speed and crossbow charge time are rescaled the same way.
• Item pickup delay.
• World catch-up: potion effect ticking, mob age/breeding timers, fluid spread delay, random-tick speed (capped, with a TPS safety floor), day/night cycle advance, portal transition delay, sleep-to-morning progress, and TNT fuse (off by default).
• Client-synced compensation factor: computed on the server, broadcast to clients, so item-use/bow/crossbow animation and prediction stay in step with the server instead of rubber-banding.
• Conservative watchdog safety net (off by default): optionally widens the server watchdog's crash threshold under sustained lag.
• /ticksmoothing command (alias /tsmooth): status, reload.
• Fully configurable — every module has its own toggle in config/tick_smoothing/config.toml (synced server config) plus a small client-only config.

Clean-room implementation — no code is derived from any existing tick-compensation mod. Not an optimization mod: run it alongside real performance mods, not instead of them.
