Added

• Added chunk-tick-distance-affects-random-ticks option to control whether chunk-tick-distance affects random ticks.
• chunk-tick-distance will still affect mobspawning regardless of this setting.
• enabling this setting will bring back old behavior, stopping random ticks in chunks too far away from players - even chunks simulated by enderpearl or portal loading.

Fixed

• Fixed chunk-tick-distance stopping pearl/portal loaded chunks from random ticking (breaking vanilla behavior by default).
  This old behavior is now hidden behind a config option.

Changed

• Chunks in vanilla can now tick if they're loaded by a ticket that allows simulation, not just when players are nearby.
• Chunk-tick-distance now checks the distance to the nearest simulating ticket instead of the nearest player.
• Since spawning and block-ticking chunks are now separate, ticking chunk cache now caches both of them.

Added

• You can now use a dynamic setting multiple times in the config.
  For example: simulation distance from 10 to 5 → view distance from 12 to 8 → simulation distance from 5 to 2 → view distance from 8 to 4, etc.

Fixed

• Fixed dynamic performance trying to change simulation distance below 5 on singleplayer. The client doesn't accept this and would put it back to 12 (default).
• Fixed villagers being unable to swim up in a 1x1 with lobotomization enabled.

  You can no longer remove the setting entirely as the config suggested doing before as this was broken.

Fixed

• Fix dynamic settings not loading properly when the config file contained errors.
  This would cause things like the mobcap percentage to remain uninitialized at -1, stopping mobspawning.

Changed

• mobcap-modifier was replaced with additional-capacity in the mobspawning configuration.
• Uses a constant value instead of a modifier as it isn't affected by changes in mobcap percentage.
• Very low mobcap percentages could otherwise cause spawners and such to basically never spawn with some configurations.

• Entirely rewritten the mod's configuration in YAML. Config files are now stored under config/servercore.
• Expanded upon activation range by making activation types fully configurable.
• Improved the /statistics entities command to show how many mobs are affected by activation range.
• Added a much requested mobspawning configuration:
• Has the ability to modify the spawnrate and mobcaps of each individual spawngroup.
• Provides optional functionality to force mobcaps to apply to zombie reinforcements, spawners and nether portal randomticks.

Fixes

• Fixed several issues with activation range.
• Fixed an incompatibility with night-config-fixes (will need dependency override for now).

Updated to 1.20.1

• Fabric API modules are no longer bundled in the mod jar.
• Added activation_range.excluded_entity_types, a config option to exclude specific entity types from activation range.
• Replaced the tick_inactive setting in activation range with tick_interval

tick_interval specifies the interval between 'active' ticks whilst the entity is inactive.\
Negative values will disable these active ticks similar to tick_inactive = false used to do.
