Mob Neural Network

Self-Learning Mob AI.

Mobs that learn from combat to evolve strategies and squad compositions.

Key features
•
Mobs learn from every fight, evolving distinct personalities and combat strategies over generations.
•
Witch commanders dynamically recruit and command optimal squads of different mob types.
•
Train AI against AI at accelerated speeds to gather proper training data rapidly.
Why it matters
Makes PvE dynamic and challenging. Mobs adapt to players, removing predictable patterns.

A simulation engine that detects cheats by analyzing movement physics and combat statistics.

Key features
•
Detects aim assist via pitch delta analysis.
•
Momentum and frictional drag calculations for accurate movement prediction.
•
Dynamically adjusts for complex environments like bubble columns and slime blocks.
Why it matters
Analyzes movement quality to detect modern cheats without affecting legitimate players.

Coronus NPCS

Packet-Based NPCs.

High-performance NPCs that handle interactions and skins without server lag.

Key features
•
Fetch and apply skins instantly by username via Mojang API.
•
Uses ProtocolLib to render NPCs client-side, ensuring zero server tick impact.
•
Bind server commands to NPCs to create interactive locators and utility bots.

About

Unintrusive Design.

Good plugins shouldn't get in the way. I build tools that enhance the game without interrupting it.

Java / JVM Bukkit / Paper Redis / SQL
Principles

My development approach.

Player Focused

Features should serve the player and improve their experience.

Performance

Optimized code that respects the server tick budget.

Code Quality

Readable, documented, and intuitive APIs.

Stability

Graceful error handling without crashing the server.
