Knowledgebound

KnowledgeBound v0.10.0 - Fishing Overhaul, LuckPerms, Death Penalties & Slaughtering Polish This major update brings massive improvements to gathering mechanics, adds robust permission management via LuckPerms, introduces a customizable death penalty system, and fixes numerous bugs with corpses and loot drops.

🎣 Fishing Overhaul Fishing Fail Mechanics: Added configurable failure chances when reeling in fish based on your Fishing tier (Beginner: 40%, T1: 25%, T2: 10%, T3: 5%). When you fail, the fish gets away, but you still gain learning experience from the attempt! New Custom Rods: Added support for good_rod and super_rod (gated behind Copper and Iron Toolsmithing tiers). Rod Perks: Using a Good Rod cuts your fishing fail chance in half (50% reduction), and using a Super Rod reduces it to a quarter (75% reduction). Fully configurable in the config GUI. 🛡️ LuckPerms & Permissions API Support Full Integration: Bundled the Fabric Permissions API directly into the mod. It works out-of-the-box with LuckPerms (and compatible plugins) without requiring extra downloads. Granular Permissions: All commands now use dedicated permission nodes (e.g., knowledgebound.command.admin, knowledgebound.command.set, knowledgebound.command.grant) with perfect fallbacks to standard OP levels if no permission plugin is installed. 💀 Knowledge Loss on Death & Staff Exemptions Death Penalties: Added an optional death penalty system. By default, dying completely wipes all knowledge progress back to 0 (knowledgeLossResetEverything: true), forcing players to start fresh. Configurable fallbacks exist if you prefer players only lose a set percentage of minutes or a flat number of tiers. Staff Exemption: Staff members can be exempted from death loss in two ways: Adding their username to knowledgeLossExemptUsernames in the config / admin GUI. Granting them the knowledgebound.exempt.deathloss permission node in LuckPerms. New Admin Category: Easily adjust all death penalty settings in-game via /kb admin under the new Death Loss category. 🥩 Slaughtering & Corpse Improvements Corpse Persistence Fix: Corpses are now completely safe across server restarts and will properly despawn rather than becoming permanent entities when the server stops. Spider Alignment: Fixed spider corpses clipping and disappearing underground by dynamically adjusting their vertical offset upon death. Baby Zombie Fix: Fixed an issue where baby zombie corpses would incorrectly render as adult zombies. Cleaner Nametags: Corpse nametags are now unobtrusive and only display when directly looking at the corpse. Loot Drop Fixes: Prevented normal vanilla drops from spawning when killing mobs with the Cleaver, eliminating duplicate loot drops. Non-Cleaver Loot Chance: Mobs killed without a cleaver now have a configurable chance (default 30%) to drop their standard vanilla loot. Dissection Feedback & Tier Scaling: Dissection success rates now scale directly with your Slaughtering tier (Beginner 80% fail, T1 50%, T2 20%, T3 5%). Added clear action bar messages for Poor, Normal, and Excellent outcomes so you always know how well you performed! ⚙️ Technical & Under-the-Hood Java 21: Updated project build environment and compilation target to Java 21. Updated README.md with complete documentation for all new commands, permission nodes, and configuration options.
