### Added
#### New Blocks
- **Temporal Stone** and **Temporal Cobblestone** block sets with stairs, slabs, and walls
- **Temporal Dirt** and **Temporal Grass Block** as custom terrain in ChronoDawn dimension
- **Temporal ore blocks** (coal, gold, iron, redstone) replacing vanilla ores in ChronoDawn dimension
- **Entropy Crystal Ore** — new Tier 2 ore found at Y=40-100 in ChronoDawn dimension
- **Temporal Amber Ore** — new Tier 2 ore found at Y=-30 to +20 in ChronoDawn dimension
- **Temporal Sand**, **Temporal Gravel**, and **Temporal Sandstone** (plus sandstone stairs/slabs/walls) — pale-blue terrain blocks that replace vanilla `sand`/`red_sand`/`gravel`/`sandstone`/`red_sandstone` wherever they generate in the Chrono Dawn dimension
- Registered under `#minecraft:sand`, `#minecraft:gravel`, and `#minecraft:sandstone_blocks` so tag-based vanilla recipes accept the Temporal variants
- Crafting recipes: 4 Temporal Sand → Temporal Sandstone; Temporal Sandstone → stairs/slabs/walls (crafting + stonecutting); Temporal Sand → Glass (furnace smelting); Temporal Sand + Gunpowder → TNT; Temporal Sand + Temporal Gravel + Dye → Concrete Powder (all 16 colors)
- Recipe advancements unlock the above recipes in the recipe book when the player picks up the relevant ingredient (Temporal Sand / Temporal Gravel / Temporal Sandstone)
#### New Items & Equipment
- **Entropy Crystal** — material dropped from Entropy Crystal Ore
- **Entropy Crystal Sword** — applies Entropy Effect (damage over time) on hit
- **Raw Temporal Amber** — material dropped from Temporal Amber Ore
- **Temporal Amber Dust** — crafting material refined from Raw Temporal Amber
- **Temporal Amber Armor** (full set) — with auto-repair feature that consumes Temporal Amber Dust when out of combat
- ChronoDawn Custom Shields: three tiered shields (Clockstone, Enhanced Clockstone, Entropy Crystal) with cumulative time-manipulation effects — passive time-debuff shortening, faster raise on 1.21.5+, Speed on successful block (T2+), and Time Echo auto-block (T3). Crafted via a tier upgrade chain with Time Wood plank variants and dimension materials. Independent from the existing Chrono Aegis artifact.
#### Gameplay Features
- **Entropy Effect** — new mob effect dealing damage over time, applied by Entropy Crystal Sword
- **Temporal Amber Armor auto-repair** — 5 durability per piece every 3 seconds while out of combat, consuming 1 Temporal Amber Dust per repair tick
- 4 new advancements: Eroder of Time, Sealed in Time, Fractured Time, Preserved in Amber
- Recipe unlock for Entropy Crystal Sword on Entropy Crystal pickup
- Emissive render layers for Timeline Strider, Paradox Crawler, and Pulse Hog mobs
- Loot table for Clockwork Depths archive vault chests
- Experience drops from Temporal Coal Ore
- TimeKeeper village block replacement pipeline using NBT templates
#### Development & Build
- Shared Gradle scripts via minecraft-mod-gradle-scripts submodule
### Changed
- Rebased Time Crystal and Clockstone ore textures onto Temporal Stone base
- Chrono Dawn dimension surface rules now produce Temporal sand/gravel/sandstone; the `sand_disk` / `gravel_disk` configured features place Temporal variants instead of the vanilla blocks
### Fixed
- TimeBlastRenderer crash on 1.21.9+ due to missing setLight in submit() API
- All armors invisible when worn on 1.21.4+ (missing equipment asset path)
- Boss entities could despawn unexpectedly (added persistence overrides)
- Underground dungeon overlap (added exclusion zones between structures)
- Frozen time progression in ChronoDawn dimension
- Missing Ticking Sheep registrations in NeoForge 1.21.4 and other version modules
- Missing Client Items JSON for Ticking Sheep spawn egg
- Removed non-functional Spatially Linked Pickaxe ultimate recipe
