Enttick
by cintlex
Enttick corrects where the entity tracker is placed in the tick cycle, restoring the pre 1.14 response when players attack or interact with entities.
What it does
Since 1.14, Mojang's internal changes to entity tracking put the tracker out of order in the first tick event of the cycle, which delays how quickly entities react to attacks and interactions. Enttick moves the tracker back to its original position in the tick cycle, fixing the issue without side effects. The delay was hardest to notice on good connections, and it is the reason newer versions can feel slower than older ones.
The mod is server-side only, so clients do not need to install it, and it works in singleplayer, where the effect shows up for the local player. Enttick needs no extra dependencies, and it is not necessary to drop files into the mods folder beyond the jar itself. Builds cover 1.14.4 – 26.3 across Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so it is open source.

What the author says
In modern versions, you might've noticed that even on a good connection, theres a delayed reaction when attacking or interacting with entities. This wasn't there before, and especially noticeable if you've played older versions. This is because of internal changes Mojang did to entity tracking in 1.14, which placed…
