# BuffMobs Changelog
## Version 2.4.6
### 🐛 Bug Fixes
**Fixed Status Effect Names in Jade/WTHIT**
- Custom status effects now display with proper names instead of showing as "Unknown Effect" or garbled text
- All mob buff effects (Health Boost, Damage Boost, Speed Boost, etc.) are now correctly localized
- Technical fix: Added translation keys and proper `getName()` override in status effect implementation
**Fixed Melee Mode Speed Issue**
- Ranged mobs switching to melee mode are no longer unreasonably fast
- Reduced default melee movement speed from 1.0x to 0.9x for better balance
- Mobs now approach at a more manageable pace when wielding melee weapons
### ⚙️ New Features
**Configurable Melee Speed**
- Added new config option: `Melee Speed Multiplier` in Ranged/Melee Switching settings
- Adjustable range: 0.5x to 2.0x speed (default: 0.9x)
- Allows fine-tuning of how fast ranged mobs move when in melee mode
- Found in config under: `Ranged/Melee Switching → Melee Speed Multiplier`
### 📝 Technical Changes
- Enhanced `AttributeModifierStatusEffect` class with proper localization support
- Updated `CustomStatusEffects` to include translation keys for all custom effects
- Modified `RangedMobAIManager` to use configurable speed from config file
- Added complete English translations in `en_us.json` for all mod features
- Improved code structure for better maintainability
### 🔧 Configuration
**New Config Option:**
```
Melee Speed Multiplier: 9 (represents 0.9x)
- Range: 5-20 (0.5x - 2.0x speed)
- Lower = Slower melee movement
- Higher = Faster melee movement
```

### 💡 Notes
This update focuses on polish and quality-of-life improvements. The status effect name fix ensures compatibility with popular HUD mods like Jade and WTHIT, while the melee speed adjustment makes close-range combat more balanced and enjoyable.
**Recommended Settings:**
- Keep melee speed at 0.9x (default) for balanced gameplay
- Adjust lower (0.5x-0.7x) if mobs feel too aggressive in melee
- Adjust higher (1.2x-1.5x) for more challenging close combat
