Atmospheric Fauna

At first I thought I would release a few of small updates, gradually fixing what was broken. However since Modrinth took forever to review this mod (not blaming them though, I hope they enjoyed their break 🥰) I didn't feel like releasing the changes and they somehow built up into this massive release. Honestly it feels like a completely different mod at this point, but it's still early in development. There are still quite a lot of things I would like to fix before I start adding more bird variants.

Changes:

• Completely refactored and optimized the backend, now supporting easy addition of new birds
• Fixed the crow spawning:
  • Crows spawn like they should (just set the Minecraft var alwaysSpawn to true lol)
  • Removed the custom height check -> Now only able to spawn above sea level
  • Rewrote the spawn location calculation to be further away (closer to config value)
  • Optimized the crow spawning if the max limit is reached
  • Added spawning attempt after loading every 4th chunk (to populate the world when it loads)
  • Added a list of spawnable blocks (to prevent spawning on things like water...)
• Added a despawn distance (render distance + 16 blocks)
• Added a random wing flapping offset to each crow
• Rewrote perching logic:
  • Crows now should land more sparsely from each other when in group
  • Less inclined to perch after spawning
  • Fixed some bugs with group perching
  • Added longer perch cooldown based on how long the crows were perched
• Added a check that adds any missing values inside the config file
• Added max bird particle count config value
• Replaced the missing Cloth Config disabled button with centered label
• Changed some of the config tooltip texts
• Categorized the config values inside the JSON file
• Changed some of the default config values:
  • Max number of crows: 120 -> 50
  • Spawn tick delay: 100 -> 200
