📋 About This Mod
# Stretchy Leash Makes leash breakages less likely when they can be avoided, and easier to detect when they do happen. ## Changes With the default configuration: - **Leashes don't immediately break past their maximum length,** they will break only if they remain over-stretched for too long. This delay helps avoid breakage caused by tick lag or ping lag, where the player appears to teleport forward from the game's perspective. - **Leashed mobs are pulled in more strongly,** so they can get back within range faster when over-stretching. Also reduces the risk of breakage when travelling at high speed. - **Leashed mobs have their step height increased to 1**, making them less likely to get stuck when travelling on uneven terrains. - **Audio cues will play at the leader's position**, whenever a leash starts to over-stretch, breaks, or is manually removed. ## Config The config for clients can be edited using Mod-Menu + Cloth-Config. On servers, use the `/stretchy-leash config` command (admin-only). #### `gracePeriod` (Integer) Default: 35 ticks (1.75s) Vanilla: 0 Controls how long a leash can remain over-stretched without breaking. #### `maxLength` (Double) Default: 10 blocks Vanilla: 10 blocks Controls how far a leash can reach before starting to over-stretch. This does not affect the distance at wich mobs start being pulled in (6 blocks). #### `pullStrength` (Double) Default: 2 Vanilla: 1 Controls how fast leashed mobs are pulled toward the leader. #### `stepHeight` (Float) Default: 1 Vanilla: 0 Increases the step-height of leashed mob to at least this value. ## Caveats In order to be fully server-side, the sound `item.crossbow.load_middle` is reused as the over-stretching cue. This sound event lacks a subtitle in vanilla, and would show an erroneous subtitle if it had one.
