Bugfixes

This release fixes a bug that sometimes caused NBT data loss when items had data from third party plugins, a server crash that could occur when a player mounted a Pet where it could not safely dismount on 1.21.6+, and Pet attacks ignoring damage reductions applied by other plugins. Phantom Pets no longer slow down to a near-standstill when they target a mob, Pet ranged attacks deal damage during duels again, and MyPet correctly re-registers its entities after a server reload on 1.20.3+. Many rare errors around summoning, teleporting, world changes, and disconnects have also been resolved - see the full changelog below.
