  1. Close-Range Latch : simple entity check within the small latchRangeBlocks (3.0) radius almost every tick, squid will get stuck on target head and begin to damage them.

  2. Psychic Grab (Low Frequency): long-range check use a large radius (psychicGrabRange 12.5), cooldown 10s. Long-range targeting has a psychicGrabChance (0.5) success rate.

Glow Squid: Applies Weakness and Mining Fatigue, with a Strength buff for itself while attacking.

Escape Check: If the target's velocity exceeds the lineBreakSpeed (1.6) for 20 consecutive ticks, the latch automatically breaks.
