Contribution Guidelines

• Optimization and Efficiency

Code should use most available optimizations, if possible, like macro caching and UUID selectors to gain more performance. TPS matters when mods and other datapacks are being used.

• Modular

Code of Glacier Players allow extensions to add onto existing systems like assigning a glacier a custom waypoint picture when connecting.

• Player Accuracy

Glaciers aim to mimic players so try to add in any features or behaviours that makes them more accurate, with the limitations of datapacks in a vanilla client.

Experimental Mob AI

EXPMAI or formerly EXPAI. originally created Glacier Players which was split into its own project. EXPAI changes behaviour of certain mobs.
