# Changelog ## [1.7.6-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### ⚙️ Technical Changes - **Standalone Config System**: Replaced the dependency on `AutoConfig` and `Cloth Config` with a custom lightweight JSON loader. - *Impact*: Configuration files (`config/betterdogs.json`) are now properly generated and respected again. Users can manually edit this file to change settings (e.g., friendly fire, speed buffs) even though the in-game GUI is currently disabled. ## [1.7.5-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### 🧠 AI Improvements - **Smart Cliff Safety**: Wolves now actively retreat (walk backwards 4 blocks) when they detect a steep drop or void, rather than just stopping. This prevents them from getting stuck at the edge or sliding off. ## [1.7.4-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### 🛠 Bug Fixes - **Crash Fix**: Resolved a `NullPointerException` during the "Cliff Safety V2" check. - *Details*: The code now correctly exits the tick handler if the target is cleared by the V1 check, preventing subsequent access to invalid target references. ## [1.7.3-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### 🛠 Bug Fixes - **Crash Fix**: Removed reference to missing `WolfGoalsMixin` which caused a startup crash. Functionality was previously merged into `WolfMixin`. ## [1.7.2-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### 🛠 Technical Changes - **Dependency Fix**: Relaxed `fabric.mod.json` version constraints (`minecraft` to `~26.1-`) to resolve "Incompatible mods" errors with alpha launchers. ## [1.7.1-26.1] - 2026-01-21 ### Ported to Minecraft 26.1 (Snapshot 4) This release marks the migration to the first **unobfuscated** version of Minecraft. ### 🛠 Technical Changes - **Language Migration**: Switched codebase from **Kotlin** back to **Java**. - *Reasoning*: While Kotlin offers a smoother coding experience, the transition to the unobfuscated 26.1 environment favored the native stability and direct mapping of Java, reducing toolchain complexity during this experimental snapshot phase. - **Build System**: Updated to Fabric Loom 1.14.7 (`net.fabricmc.fabric-loom`) to support unobfuscated builds. ### ⚠️ Known Issues / Temporary Changes - **Config GUI Unavailable**: While an alpha build of Mod Menu (18.0.0-alpha.4) exists for 26.1, the required **Cloth Config** library has not yet been updated for the unobfuscated environment (still uses `intermediary` mappings). - As a result, the in-game configuration screen is disabled to prevent crashes. - Default settings are applied automatically.
