26.1+ Dolphin Item Throwing Fix
26.1+ Dolphin Item Throwing Fix corrects a 26.1 regression in which dolphins threw fewer items per hour than the 1.21.11 behavior.
What it does
The regression lowered dolphin item throughput in 26.1, and the mod restores the rate seen in 1.21.11. Thrown items keep the vanilla despawn behavior, so they still disappear on the usual timer. Only dolphins are changed; other mobs keep their modified or original logic. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric and is published under the MIT License, not as open source, for 26.1 – 26.1.2.
Key features
Restored dolphin throughput
Dolphin item throwing returns to the rate seen in 1.21.11.
Vanilla despawn kept
Thrown items still follow the standard despawn timer, so no extra item clutter builds up.

The fix touches dolphin throwing alone and leaves the behavior of other mobs unchanged.

What the author says
Notes: Server-side only — no client installation required Vanilla item despawn behavior is preserved — thrown items receive a fresh despawn timer No item duplication — pickup discards the original entity, throw creates a new one (same as vanilla mechanic) Only affects dolphins — no other mobs are modified
