Fixes:

• Fix inconsistent attack knockback calculation

This is a minor default config update.
The previous version had a configuration that prevented water buckets from being dispensed unless they had something to dispense into.

For existing users simply set item use mechanic.prevent vanilla behavior for to an empty list.
Either that or you could download this version and regenerate your config.

Hi all, another update for you.

• Added "disabled entities" option to weapon attack mechanic
• Added "respect item attack speed" option for weapon attack mechanic
• Added "sneak when using on" option for item use mechanic
• Added "prevent vanilla behavior for" for item use mechanic
• Added "fake player events" option to general, allowing plugins to handle events generated by the fake player
• Added ability to use tags (ie #minecraft:mineable/pickaxe) for all config fields
• Fixed possible issue if plugin is unloaded, block state changes and plugin is loaded again for tool break block mechanic
• Improved efficiency of API
• Altered default config values

Due to the configuration changes, it is STRONGLY recommended that you regenerate your configuration.

Enjoy.

Sorry about this, but I posted the wrong download link in releases. Please re-download it.

This update reverts the change made to water buckets as it breaks some vanilla contraptions and has other related issues and inconsistencies (sorry)

In the last update a bug was introduces where ItemUseMechanic would not place buckets in front of the dispenser even when there are no blocks to place it against/interact with.

It also carries various improvements to dispense events/api and optimizations.

This update contains mainly bugfixes and performance improvements with one advanced config addition.

Changes:

• Add a no-op on failure option (default false) for break block mechanic fixing item use mechanic consuming the action and causing the tool break block mechanic to break.
• item use mechanic will no longer drop buckets that are full/empty if the target block cannot be filled/emptied
• Fix fire aspect being applied even if the damage event was cancelled for weapon attack mechanic
• Internal redesign of the fake player used for interacting such as by moving it to the world spawnpoint instead of 0,32000,0 (preventing sync chunk loads*)
• Better internal error/exception handling

Have fun.

Updated to 1.19.3
No other changes.

Merry Christmas.

Sorry for the double update.

Main fixes:

• weapon attack mechanic - prioritize the closest entity first rather than random
• weapon attack mechanic - use correct knockback offsets
• weapon attack mechanic - do not sweep non-living entities
• weapon attack mechanic - better event handling
• weapon attack mechanic - do not attack non-attackable entities (such as items)
• weapon attack mechanic - add list of disabled weapons
• block break mechanic - add list of disabled tools
• block break mechanic - add list of disabled blocks
• interact mechanic - add interact range modifier

Other:

• mark fake player as a non-real player (paper)
• prevent fake player from getting bad omen (among other effects)
• use getSlot rather than ordinal for EventPriority

This hotfix fixes a bug where event priority wouldn't be enforced for superclasses of the listener.
Meaning that some plugins might be able to cancel interact events of the fake player.

Fixes an Item Use Mechanic dupe bug for some specific items

Fixed incompatibility with Bukkit/Spigot.
Improved reload handling.

This update adds an Item Use Mechanic that will use an item as if you clicked it!

This update fixes blocks (such as ores) not dropping exp when mined and improves placement orientation of blocks (allowing double slab placement)

Changes:

• Fix block breakers not dropping exp from blocks (such as ores)
• Improve orientation of blocks when placed, allowing for double slab placement etc. Blocks will be placed in the direction of the dispenser
