Main features
Technical Context & Changes
In recent engine updates, the Attack class framework was refactored, converting private method variables into public serialized object blueprints.
Mod Mechanics & Implementation
Crosshair Hitbox Fix utilizes HarmonyX parameter mapping to execute a Prefix patch on GetMeleeAttackDir altering how the execution vector resolves using:
-
[]Vector Substitution: The patch bypasses the default horizontal flattening math and assigns a 1:1 camera direction vector using
GameCamera.instance.transform.forward.[/
][]Perspective Compatibility: Because the mod references the active camera transform rather than the character model's skeletal structure, it functions across all zoom levels, including First-Person Camera modifications such as First Person View that lock player bone rotations.[/]
[]Identity Filtering: The script runs an identity check (character. IsPlayer()) before executing the bypass. AI creatures excluded from the patch, preserving vanilla tracking for monsters.[/]
Shout outs
Thanks to flppyflip3 for Slope Combat FIX that I could not live without.
