Версия UI REDESIGN & AUTO MOD DETECT Майнкрафт Мода

🎨 COMPLETE UI REDESIGN

1. ModListScreen - Professional Modern Interface ✨

The Problem: The old interface was "корявый" (clunky/ugly) - functional but not user-friendly or visually appealing.

The Solution: Complete from-scratch redesign with modern card-based UI!

New Layout Structure:

🆕 NEW MOD AUTO-DETECTION (Feature #32)

2. NewModScanner - Automatic Mod Discovery

What It Does: Automatically detects when new mods are added to your mods folder - even while the game is running!

How It Works:

On startup: Scans mods folder, remembers all .jar files
On refresh: Rescans folder, detects new files
Visual markers: New mods get bright orange "NEW!" badges
Status tracking: Counts and displays new mod count

Features:

🔍 Automatic scanning - No manual refresh needed (but available!)
🆕 "NEW!" badges - Bright orange badge on new mods
📊 Counter display - "New mods: X" in sidebar
🔄 Refresh button - Manually rescan anytime
💾 Persistent tracking - Remembers which mods are "new"

Implementation:

// NewModScanner.java
- init() - Initialize on game start
- scanModsFolder() - Scan for .jar files
- getNewMods() - Get list of new mods
- getNewModCount() - Count new mods
- refresh() - Manual rescan
- markAsKnown() - Remove "new" flag
- clearNewMods() - Clear all flags

Visual Design:

┌─────────────────────────────┐
│ ● Mod Name           [NEW!] │  <- Orange badge
│   modid              v1.0   │
│   ⚡ HotSwap ready           │
└─────────────────────────────┘

Badge Styling:

Background: Orange (#FFAA00)
Border: Yellow (#FFFF00) - top/bottom
Text: Black bold "NEW!"
Size: 40x10 pixels

Sidebar Stats:

Quick Stats:
- Toggleable: 45
- Active: 38
- Inactive: 7
- New mods: 3  <- New indicator!

User Workflow:

Add new mod .jar to mods folder
Click "Refresh" in mod list screen
New mods appear with "NEW!" badges
Enable/disable as desired
Badges persist until cleared

🔧 BUG FIXES

3. FIXED: Back Button in ModDependenciesScreen 🐛

Issue: Back button didn't respond to clicks - only ESC key worked to exit the dependency viewer.

Root Cause: Event handler priority issue. The dragging/panning logic was consuming mouse click events before the button handler could process them.

Technical Fix:

@Override
public boolean mouseClicked(double mouseX, double mouseY, int button) {
    // OLD (broken):
    // if (this.searchBox.mouseClicked(...)) return true;
    // for (ModNode node : modNodes.values()) { ... }
    // ... buttons never reached!

    // NEW (fixed):
    // Check buttons FIRST (highest priority)
    if (super.mouseClicked(mouseX, mouseY, button)) {
        return true;  // Button handled it!
    }

    // Then search box
    if (this.searchBox.mouseClicked(mouseX, mouseY, button)) {
        return true;
    }

    // Then nodes and dragging
    // ...
}

Result: Back button now works perfectly! 🎉
