[1.7.8] - 2026-01-27

  • Fix: Adjusted Pacifist follow distance logic to prevent "Yo-Yo" behavior (constantly wandering and being pulled back). Now enforces a minimum start distance of 10.0 blocks, overriding the default 6.0 config if lower, to give them room to breathe.
  • Tuning: Reduced the chance of Pacifist dogs deciding to wander randomly by 75%. They will now default to sitting/standing by your side much more often than other personalities.

[1.7.7] - 2026-01-27

  • Safety Logic Hardening: Removed isJumping() and onGround() bypasses for Cliff Safety. Now checks strictly based on horizontal movement to catch "pushed" states.
  • Improved Lookahead: Increased velocity lookahead from 3.0 to 5.0 blocks to better account for jumping arcs.
  • Debug: Added internal logging for safety triggers (disabled by default).

[1.7.6] - 2026-01-27

  • CRITICAL FIX: Fixed a ClassCastException crash occurring on legacy worlds or specific setups where level() was being cast to ServerLevel on the client side during cliff safety checks.
  • Restriction: Cliff Safety logic now strictly runs on the logical server.

[1.7.5] - 2026-01-27

  • Cliff Safety (Smart Brakes): Ported from 26.1. Wolves now passively detect cliffs 3 blocks ahead.
  • Safer Zoomies: Ported from 26.1. Zoomies targets are validated for ground safety.
