Fixed

• Fixed entity preview crashes caused by fake/non-server worlds in packet sync code.
• Fixed config GUI crash with newer GTNHLib versions.
• Fixed emissive eye rendering artifacts (including non-uniform transparency/"square" clipping cases).
• Fixed multiple natural spawn logic bugs:
  • player-nearby cap now checks around each player (not world origin),
  • per-player failed checks no longer abort the whole spawn cycle,
  • biome/dimension whitelist-blacklist matching now behaves correctly,
  • each dimension now has an independent spawn cooldown and cycle state,
  • cover, light, and biome restrictions are checked at the candidate spawn position,
  • naturally spawned Eyes now receive normal spawn initialization,
  • spawn timing is reset correctly after early exits.
• Fixed spawn-cycle warning timing to use the configured millisecond threshold.
• Fixed collision behavior so fully hidden/dormant Eyes do not trigger collision disappear effects.
• Fixed biome-list initialization crashing when biome filters were configured and wiping the dimension lookup table.
• Fixed the player gaze test being dependent on world coordinates and occasionally detecting intersections behind the player.
• Fixed disappearance, aggression, and configured mob AI logic running on the client as well as the server.
• Fixed entity state synchronization flooding clients with full-NBT packets every tick. Eye brightness, aggression, scale, and target state now use vanilla tracked entity data.
• Fixed packet handlers touching client state from the network thread; jumpscares are now scheduled on the client thread.
• Fixed configured mobs dealing bonus damage to every target instead of only Eyes, and fixed fleeing behavior being registered as a targeting task.
• Fixed aggression speed interpolation and made tickBetweenAttacks control all Eye attack goals.
• Fixed horizontal obstacle routing using the vertical axis as a compass direction.
• Fixed blinkDuration = -1 and very short blink durations causing invalid animation calculations.
• Fixed Halloween spawn scaling being cached for the whole session and not activating on October 31.
• Fixed jumpscare rendering and timing:
  • animation progress now advances once per client tick,
  • framebuffer projection and GL state are restored safely after rendering,
  • jumpscares render correctly at all GUI scales.

Changed

• Reworked eye glow rendering and tuning:
  • default eye_glow_passes is now 1,
  • default eye_glow_strength is now 2.
• Dynamic light handling now uses a shared client+server approximation path to keep visuals and AI behavior aligned.
• Added cave-friendly spawning: vertical candidate sampling is centered around player height and searches nearby valid Y levels.
• Reworked stalking movement:
  • Eyes strongly prefer reaching the player's eye level before closing the distance,
  • Eyes route toward a staging point behind the player and only attack from the rear,
  • turning to watch an Eye immediately stops its residual movement,
  • obstacle routing prefers lateral detours instead of climbing above the player.
• Replaced asymmetric upward acceleration and downward damping with bidirectional altitude steering controlled by fly.
• Blinking is now a client-local visual animation instead of synchronized server state.
• Adjusted default spawn list behavior:
  • biomeListIsWhitelist default is now false,
  • dimensionListIsWhitelist default is now false.
• Updated release automation and CurseForge metadata so artifacts are marked for both client and server use.
• Expanded the shared development runtime and excluded client-only Angelica, ModularUI2, and Baubles Expanded from dedicated-server launches.
• Updated the bundled license and attribution material to the complete LGPL-3.0 text.

Added

• Added internal dynamic light approximation system (DynamicLightApproximation) inspired by Angelica luminance/falloff rules.
• Added config toggle enableDynamicLightApproximation to fully disable the dynamic light handler.
• Added artificial light sensitivity configs:
  • eyeArtificialLightSensitivityOpenSky
  • eyeArtificialLightSensitivityCovered
• Added Catalogue Vintage integration.
• Added explicit localization aliases so the Eyes entity name resolves as Eyes for common key formats (including eyesintheshadows.Eyes).
• Added automated 67minecraft publishing alongside CurseForge, Modrinth, GitHub, and Maven releases.
