FlowInventory

[1.1.0] — 2026-05-03

Compared to CurseForge build [1.0.0]

The published 1.0.0 JAR was a client-only build: fabric.mod.json had "environment": "client", bundled Cloth Config inside the JAR, and contained a smaller class set (no dedicated HotbarSwapper, ItemDatabase, ItemHeuristics, ProfileManager, ActivityChangePacket, Mod Menu API entrypoint, etc.). 1.1.0 is a full gameplay-oriented release intended for singleplayer + dedicated servers.

Added

• Dedicated server support — environment: "*" so packet handlers register on the server; hotbar profile swaps and sorting run with server authority.
• Activity → hotbar — ActivityChangePacket + HotbarSwapper: presets per ActivityType (tools, blocks, food lanes, off-hand shield/totem where defined).
• Item knowledge — large ItemDatabase (combinatorial vanilla 1.20.1 coverage) + ItemHeuristics scoring (tools, blocks, food, redstone, emergencies, etc.).
• Smart hand selection — activity-ordered priorities (e.g. Exploration: compass/map before sword), max-score preset alignment, split placement vs hand score thresholds; building blocks prioritized over sugar cane / bamboo as generic “BLOCK”.
• Activity cycling — ActivityCycle / ActivityCycleRules: G next, V previous, eligibility rules so “empty” profiles are not offered; key-repeat cooldown to avoid log storms.
• G/V ordering — manual profile change runs before ActivityDetector.tick() so the locked activity matches the key press.
• Sort modes — config: SMART, ALPHABETICAL, TIER; optional mergeStacks, lockHotbar; activity-aware bias when sorting (client sends current activity with sort packet).
• Mod Menu — entrypoint + config screen (Cloth Config).
• HUD — activity overlay, lock timer, hints (see config).
• Emergency / vitals presets — explicit hand-priority lists for low health, hunger, fire, lava, drowning, falling, poison, wither, sleeping (mirrors preset intent).
• MIT license file in distributed JAR (LICENSE_flowinventory via Gradle).
• Documentation — this changelog, README, CurseForge description template, NOTICE for bundled libraries.

Changed

• Fabric Loader / Loom — project tracks Fabric Loom 1.9.x, Java 21, Minecraft 1.20.1.
• Cloth Config — still included in the mod JAR (include in Gradle) but no longer the only documented install path; users only need Fabric API + this mod.
• Logging / behaviour — combat vs food heuristics tuned (eating dampens false combat); tie-breakers and stickiness adjusted in ActivityDetector.

Fixed

• Wrong item in main hand after G when a weak “BLOCK” (e.g. sugar cane) sat in slot 0 while logs/tools scored higher elsewhere.
• Exploration profile snapping to sword when compass/map were absent from early slots without a deliberate priority order.
• Farming profile not pulling seeds / crops when no hoe was present.
• SLEEPING profile: FOOD was incorrectly treated as a deferred “snack” and could never be chosen for main hand when no bed was available.

Notes for server admins

• Install FlowInventory on the server as well as the client so R (sort) and G (profile) packets apply inventories correctly.
• Clients without the mod still connect; they simply do not send packets.
