Knightcore
Knightcore is a Forge library mod that supplies shared classes for other mods written by the author, known as MK or CryptidSeabird.
What it does
Knightcore holds the common classes and methods that the author's mods use, and it was split off so those shared parts sit in one place. Mods that rely on Knightcore receive a shared core class holding custom attributes for modded bows, plus a field-of-view handler and a draw-time event handler, so bow changes can be built on top of the library instead of being rewritten in each project.
The library runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it when a mod built on it is installed. Builds target Forge only, for Minecraft 1.18.2 with Forge 40.2 and later and for 1.19.2 with Forge 43.2 and later. The 1.19.2-1.0 file for 1.19.2 is the latest, published on 2023-01-30, and the source code is public under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so Knightcore is open source.
Key features
Common core class
A shared core class carries custom attributes used by modded bows, so bow mods can read and set the same values.
Custom FOV handler
A handler adjusts the field of view for modded bows, giving each mod that draws on it the same zoom behavior.
Draw-time event handler
A custom event fires while a bow is drawn, letting other mods react to the draw time without patching the game code.
Shared utility classes
Classes and methods used by the author's current and planned mods live in the library, so they are maintained once.

Use cases
Building bow mods
Developers writing bow mods can depend on Knightcore for the attributes, FOV handling and draw-time events they would otherwise write themselves.
Running the author's mods
Players who install the author's mods that use Knightcore need it present, because those mods load the shared classes from it.
Who it’s for: Mod developers building bow or shared-utility features on Forge, and players who run mods by the same author that depend on Knightcore.
