This is a massive update that completely changes how you move in combat! We have introduced the Grappling Trident, giving your players unparalleled 3D mobility.

What's new in v4.0:
Grappling Trident System: Equip a Lead in your off-hand and throw your Trident to anchor it to blocks. Right-click to pull yourself towards it at high speed!
Dynamic Distance: The maximum grappling range automatically scales with the Trident's Unbreaking enchantment (from 15 up to 50 blocks!).
Smart Physics & Immunity: Fluid pulling mechanics that let you slide against walls, plus configurable fall-damage immunity after landing.
New Config Section: Fully customizable cooldowns, pull speeds, ranges, and messages.

v3.1. - Elemental Warfare & Minions
This update introduces a major combat mechanic overhaul: The Catalyst System. Players can now use vanilla items in their off-hand to trigger unique effects when striking with a Spear.

New Features:

• 13 New Catalyst Effects:
  
  • Snowball: Applies Freeze ticks + Slowness.
    
    
  • Slimeball: Applies strong Slowness (Sticky effect).
    
    
  • Gunpowder: Explosive Knockback + Bonus Damage.
    
    
  • Spider Eye: Inflicts Poison.
    
    
  • Amethyst Shard: Inflicts Nausea/Confusion.
    
    
  • Echo Shard: Inflicts Darkness (1.19+).
    
    
  • Feather: Inflicts Levitation (Gravity control).
    
    
  • Ghast Tear: Grants Regeneration to the attacker (Lifesteal).
    
    
  • Chorus Fruit: Randomly teleports the victim nearby.

AI & Logic Improvements:

• Friendly Fire Protection: You can no longer accidentally damage your own minions with sweeping attacks.
  
  
• Spam Prevention: Added an internal cooldown (2s) to Wither Skull summoning to prevent entity overflow on multi-hit attacks.
  

Bug Fixes & Optimization:

• Fixed a configuration typo that prevented Wither Skulls from working.
  
  
• Optimized particle rendering using native 1.21 Particle.ITEM_SLIME packets.
  
  
• Refactored code into MinionManager for better stability.
