Changelog

0.1.2

Added

• Flee Distance control — always-visible numeric field on the General settings page that determines how far the player can walk from their Pokémon before an ongoing auto-battle is automatically forfeited (6–256 blocks)
• Flee Distance: Auto toggle (default ON) — when enabled, the flee distance is automatically kept at Range + 2 blocks; the numeric field reflects the effective value. Turn OFF to set a fixed custom distance independently of the engagement range
• 9 new achievements across 3 new categories and 3 extended existing ones:
  • Catch Pauses — tracks how many times auto-battle stopped to let the player catch a target: Opportunity Spotted (1), Patient Hunter (10), Trap Setter (25)
  • Auto-Heals — tracks how many times a healing item was automatically used mid-session: Field Medic (1), Combat Medic (25), Battle Surgeon (100)
  • Rotation — tracks how many times auto-battle continued with a replacement Pokémon after a faint: The Relay (1), Tag Team (10), Endless Chain (25)
  • Sessions extended: Fully Automated (100 sessions)
  • Endurance extended: Unkillable (250 faints survived)
  • Shiny extended: Shiny Obsessed (25 shinies found)

Fixed

• Battle flee distance was not respecting the configured Range — previously, auto-battles were started with Cobblemon's global flee distance (32 blocks by default), meaning a player could walk up to 32 blocks from their Pokémon regardless of the Range setting. The flee distance is now derived from the mod's own settings
• Active-battle distance enforcement — Cobblemon only enforces flee distance at battle start. The mod now actively monitors player-to-Pokémon distance every tick during an ongoing battle and forfeits it if the threshold is exceeded, covering cases where the player walks away after the battle has already started
• Battle freeze after flee forfeit — if forceChoose failed silently, the mod would mark the battle as ended while Cobblemon still held the player in-battle, locking out all actions (mining, placing blocks, etc.). The forfeit path now only claims success after the response is confirmed submitted, and retries each tick until it can

Notes

• Existing Pokémon with auto-battle data saved from earlier versions will default to Flee Distance: Auto ON and Flee Distance 32, preserving previous behavior until settings are changed
• Achievement counters for new categories (catch pauses, auto-heals, rotations) start at zero for all players; no retroactive credit
• Built for Minecraft 1.21.1, Fabric, and Cobblemon 1.7.3+1.21.1

UI Overhaul & Bug Fixes

Bug Fixes

Fixed crash when opening the Target List (Blacklist/Whitelist) editor

Fixed search input text being invisible while typing species names

Fixed infinite rebuild loop that destroyed the search field on every keystroke

Target List Screen

Search field now keeps focus and shows typed text correctly while searching

Title no longer overlaps the Mode toggle button — layout shifted down to give proper spacing

Removed duplicate "Search Results" header that was overlapping the search input box

Search results and list entries now update without recreating the text field

Settings Screen

Scrollable content no longer bleeds under the tab header (General / Advanced / Rotation / Targets) when scrolling

Subtitle text ("Level range, stopping conditions…") no longer overlaps scrolled content — it stays fixed above the scroll area

Advanced tab now has a working scroll bar — all settings are reachable even in small windows

Scroll bar position is now accurate relative to the actual content area

Tooltips now only appear after hovering a button with the mouse still for ~700ms, instead of showing immediately

Renamed "Preset" row to "Profile" — cycles through built-in presets and saved named profiles

Added "Manage" button next to the Profile row — opens the Profiles screen directly

Added "Profiles" tab button in the top bar for quick access "On Special Found" simplified to 3 clear states: Ignore / Stop for Shinies / Stop for Specials
