# Changelog ## [3.4.0] - 2026-05-12 ### Summary The **"Wolf Litters"** update. Tamed wolves can now have multiple puppies in one breed, mirroring real-world dog litters. - Added `bd_wolf_litter_max_size` and `bd_wolf_litter_extra_chance` GameRules. - Puppies in a litter inherit parent traits independently. ## [3.3.1] - 2026-05-11 ### Added - **🤝 Social Politeness**: New GameRule `bd_territorial_exclusive_disputes` (Default: true) ensures territorial disputes are strictly 1v1. - **Queuing Logic**: Leaders will now wait for a rival to be "free" before initiating a challenge, preventing chaotic crowd disputes in dense areas. ## [3.3.0] - 2026-05-11 ### Added - **🌍 Territorial Scaling**: New GameRule `bd_territorial_search_radius` to control the distance at which pack leaders engage in disputes. - **🐺 Pack Dynamics**: - **Configurable Cluster Size**: New GameRule `bd_wolf_pack_cluster_size` to control the maximum size of naturally spawning packs. - **Density Boosting**: New GameRule `bd_wolf_spawn_density_boost` (% chance) to trigger a "Reinforcement Spawn" nearby when a pack spawns, increasing regional territorial friction. - **Localization**: Full descriptive strings for all new balancing parameters in `en_us.json`. ### Refactored - **Versioning**: Incremented to `3.3.0` to reflect significant configuration and world-gen logic shifts. - **AI Hardening**: `WildWolfTerritorialGoal` now fully respects dynamic search radius updates without requiring a world reload. ## [3.2.0] - 2026-05-11 ### Added - **🏰 Territorial Handshake**: New negotiation logic for wild pack leaders. - If both leaders want war -> Cinematic 1v1 Duel. - If only one wants war -> Negotiated Yield (B yields/merges) or Retreat based on `bd_territorial_yield_on_one_sided_chance`. - If neither wants war -> Peaceful Retreat (96 blocks). - **Wild Personality AI**: Wild members (not leaders) exhibit unique behaviors (e.g., Aggressive wolves hunting monsters) while anchored to their pack leader. - **Debug Tooling**: - Added `/betterdogs debug territory` for immediate pack interaction testing. - **Territorial Debug Logging**: New detailed console logs for pack interactions (Wars, Merges, Retreats) enabled via `betterdogdebugging` GameRule. ### Hardening - **Logic Hardening**: Moved all custom entity logging (Spawn, Tame, Social, Ambient) to the `betterdogdebugging` GameRule gate. - **Default Alignment**: Wild Personality Behavior is now enabled by default for new worlds. - **Architectural Cleanup**: Removed duplicate debug log entries in Mixin layers. ### Refactored - **Architectural Alignment**: Refactored `WildWolfFollowLeaderGoal` to use the modernized **DasikLibrary 1.7.0** base goal. - Optimized pack following with distance-based "Movement Triggers" (start/stop thresholds). - Reduced mod code footprint by leveraging library-side stable physics. - **Mapping Compliance**: Fully refactored for **Minecraft 26.1.2** ("Tiny Takeover") mapping signatures. - **Deterministic AI**: Territorial decisions are now synchronized between entities using a shared seeded random. ## [3.1.37+build.10] - 2026-05-12 ### Added - **AI Refactor: Stable Wild Pack Leadership**: - **Refactored `WildWolfFollowLeaderGoal`**: Wild wolves now follow their pack leader with logic mirroring vanilla `FollowOwnerGoal` (teleportation and consistent movement). - **Stable Leadership**: Pack members now lock onto their leader persistently. Leadership is saved to NBT and survives world reloads. - **Tame Interaction**: Taming a leader now allows the wild pack to follow the player by proxy. Taming a member correctly transitions them to standard owner-following behavior. - **Improved Performance**: Reduced frequency of expensive social pathfinding calculations. ## [3.1.37+build.9] - 2026-05-11 ### Added - **Debugging Mode**: Introduced the `betterdogdebugging` GameRule. - Enables detailed AI logging in the server console. - Adds visual particles (Flame/Note/Happy Villager) above wolves to indicate personality. - **Debug Stick Integration**: Allows cycling through personalities and social scales using the vanilla Debug Stick. - **Maintenance**: Fixed compilation errors related to `DasikLibrary` API changes in `WildWolfFollowLeaderGoal`.
