• Positioned 12px below the crossbow timer
• Resets automatically on new anchor placement

Components

• AnchorRecord stores frames, tick frames, timestamp, server, and charge offset
• AnchorHistory saves data to xbowtimer-anchor-history.json using safe writes
• AnchorTracker handles detection, tracking, and HUD output

Mixins

• SendPacketMixin detects anchor placement and glowstone use
• ExplosionPacketMixin sends explosion positions to the tracker

Client

• Integrated into tick loop
• Resets on disconnect
• Renders on HUD

Bug Fix: Screen Blur

• Fixed background blur appearing behind config and history screens
• Proper applyBlur overrides added for each Minecraft version

Compatibility and Build Fixes

• Updated explosion packet handling to use packet.center().x/y/z where required
• Kept support for older versions that still use getX/Y/Z

Version-specific fixes

• 1.21.1 uses legacy packet methods with a dedicated mixin

• 1.21.8 fixes:

  • Uses string category instead of KeyBinding.Category
  • UI screens use older mouseClicked(double, double, int) signature

• Fixed incorrect source usage for 1.21.8 by adding proper overrides
