Let Your Friend Eating! – Changelog

Version 1.1.0 (Refactor & Rebuild)

Status: Stable
Focus: Complete rewrite for performance, flexibility, and long-term maintenance.

Overview

This version is a full internal rebuild of the mod. Every system has been redesigned with a focus on stability, extensibility, and error prevention. It introduces a modular API, improved synchronization, and future-proof internal architecture.

If you encounter any unexpected behavior, revert to 1.0.4 (LTS) for guaranteed stability.

Major Changes

• Complete Code Rewrite: The entire mod has been rebuilt from the ground up for cleaner logic and maintainability.
• LYFE API v2: A new, cleaner API designed for future integrations and developer extensions.
• Improved Synchronization: Reworked client-server communication for lower latency and consistent state updates.
• Enhanced Validation: Every critical path now includes safe null and exception handling to eliminate crash risks.
• Future-Proof Design: All major systems are modular, making it easier to maintain and update across Minecraft versions.

Technical Improvements

• Optimized memory usage and reduced tick overhead for smoother performance.
• Replaced deprecated and version-specific methods with universal abstractions.
• Real-time configuration reloads (no restart required).
• Unified naming conventions and code standards.
• Tested across all supported loaders: Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt.

Developer Notes

• Error handling has been refactored into a unified internal handler.
• Feeding, particle, and sound systems are now isolated into independent modules.
• Data persistence is now asynchronous and version-independent.
