Bloody Bits Fix

Bloody Bits Fix

A small compatibility patch for CravenCraft’s Bloody Bits v1.3.3 on Forge 1.20.1 that prevents client crashes (Ticking entity) caused by a NullPointerException in BloodSprayEntity#setClientBloodColor.

---

🩸 What Was Broken

When the internal CLIENT_SIDE_BLOOD_SPRAYS map overflowed, the original code called map.get(0) and attempted to access a null entry, leading to crashes during heavy blood-particle activity.

---

🧩 What This Fix Does

Rewrites the method via Mixin overwrite:
• Safely synchronizes state of respawned sprays (including life).
• When the limit (CommonConfig.maxSpatters()) is reached, removes the oldest entry instead of key 0.
• Calls discard() before removal.
• Fully eliminates all NullPointerException cases.

---

⚙️ Installation

1️⃣ Install Bloody Bits 1.3.3.
2️⃣ Drop bloodybitsfix-1.0.1.jar into your /mods/ folder.

---

✅ How to Verify

✔️ Spawn large hordes to generate blood sprays.
✔️ Confirm that no crash occurs.
✔️ The total number of splatters stabilizes around the configured maxSpatters limit.

---

🧠 Notes

• life duration behavior matches the original implementation.
• To further reduce visual load, lower maxSpatters in the Bloody Bits config.
