Entity Tick Authority

Info

This mod reorders the entity tracker tick to occur after the server tick finishes collecting entity data. This fixes noticeable interaction delay plaguing the game since the Village and Pillage update.

The mod is carefully checked to maintain parity with modern vanilla entity behavior. It mimics 1.13.2's order of tracked entities, and doesn't change anything else. Any vanilla deviations from this mod would be present in 1.13.2 and older versions aswell. Major deviations can be reported to Github issues page.

This was inspired by Responsive Knockback, but rewritten with more vanilla/mod compatible code, multiple loaders, and broad version support.

1.14's merge of entity trackers into the ChunkMap class causes ChunkMap.tick() to broadcast empty data because its positioned before the server can collect any entity data for that tick. The delayed updates will then be sent to the next ChunkMap tick, dropping 1-3 ticks of entity updates which could've been broadcasted immediately after recieving it.

Usage

Fabric, NeoForge, and Forge are all supported modloaders. Make sure you're downloading the correct jar file for your version. I don't plan on porting to any other mod loaders at this time. Forge contains a 1.20.1 build and won't be expanded further.

The mod runs completely server sided and isn't required on clients if present on a dedicated server. LAN and Singleplayer are naturally supported aswell.

Mod has been tested compatible with common optimization mods like Lithium, C2ME, FerriteCore, Krypton, ScalableLux, ModernFix, etc. I even recommend running those alongside for the most responsiveness. Most other mods should be compatible as long as they don't change the tick order related to this mod.
