Fixed

Radial Menu Clickability (1.21.8)

• Fixed radial menu not responding to mouse clicks
  • Root cause: Custom handleMouseClick, handleKeyPress, and handleKeyRelease methods were not being called
  • Added proper @Override annotations for mouseClicked, keyPressed, and keyReleased methods
  • Menu now correctly handles segment clicks, subsection clicks, and center clicks
  • ESC key properly closes the menu
  • R key refreshes origins in origin select mode

Keybind Registration Crash (1.21.8)

• Fixed crash on startup due to duplicate keybind registration
  • Root cause: Keybindings were being registered twice:
    • Once via @EventBusSubscriber in KeyBindings.java
    • Again via modEventBus.addListener(this::registerKeyMappings) in VeilOrigins.java
  • Removed duplicate registration from VeilOrigins.java
  • Keybinds are now registered only once via @EventBusSubscriber

API Compatibility (1.21.8)

• Fixed FMLEnvironment.getDist() → FMLEnvironment.dist for NeoForge 21.8
• Fixed DeferredRegister.Items.registerItem() to use direct Item.Properties instead of Supplier<Item.Properties>
• Fixed KeyMapping constructor to use String-based categories instead of KeyMapping.Category

Other Fixes

• Vampire sun damage now works correctly
• Blood bar sprites render properly using blitSprite with RenderPipelines.GUI_TEXTURED
