Performance

• Faster item recognition and binding lookups: hot paths like inventory scans no longer rebuild lookup tables on every call — a notable per-tick saving on populated servers.
• Deduplicated state writes: writing an unchanged value no longer triggers data copies or sync traffic, so high-frequency states (heat accumulation, etc.) stop generating pointless packets.
• Smaller bullet sync packets: incremental sync entries are about half the size; bandwidth drops noticeably when many bullets are in flight.
• Cheaper shotgun / multi-pellet shots: the variant pool is built once per shot; pellets only roll independently — no more repeated registry lookups per pellet (the bullet-visual registry scan is also cached per registry instance).
• Batch uninstall recomputes attributes once: removing several plugins at once recomputes attributes a single time instead of once per plugin.
• More reliable texture caching: dynamic texture cache keys now compare values, so plugin reloads or resource refreshes never trigger unnecessary texture recomposition.
• Leaner rendering: per-frame / per-tick temporary allocations (bullet sorting, snapshot reads) eliminated.

Fixed

• Bullets could briefly disappear after a dimension switch: sync state is now reset on dimension change instead of relying on the periodic full sync seconds later.
• Stale plugin visuals after a resource reload: F3+T now also clears the overlay cache, keeping visuals consistent with the resource packs.
• Deterministic binding resolution: when several Java-API bindings register the same item, the lexicographically smallest entry key now wins — the same rule as the datapack channel — instead of an unspecified scan order.
• Hit-packet encoding fix: non-entity hits no longer write the -1 sentinel as a varint (a negative varint is actually larger); a presence flag plus conditional varint keeps both entity and non-entity hits at or below the old fixed-width size.
• Shoot sounds fade out too early at high speed: shoot and plugin-install sounds now follow the player, so fast movement no longer leaves them behind at the trigger point.
