Tenite's Anchor Optimizer
What it is
Tenite's Anchor Optimizer is a client-side Fabric mod that improves the visual response of respawn anchor explosions. In standard Minecraft, the time it takes for block destruction to happen after interacting with an anchor is network based. This mod aims to fix that.
How it Works
When a player right-clicks a charged respawn anchor, the mod predicts which blocks will be destroyed. The predicted blocks are immediately replaced on the client with a placeholder block. The client simultaneously sends a packet to the server to perform the explosion. Once the server confirms the explosion and updates the world state, the mod reverts the blocks on the client to match the server. This process ensures the client's view remains synchronized with the server's world while allowing players to see the result of the explosion without waiting for server confirmation.
Features and Commands
Client-Side Operation: This mod is client-side only and does not need to be installed on a server.
Customizable Behavior: The mod can be configured with a keybind that opens the setting which is O on default but can be customized.
