No attack time delay
by kooyoseb
No attack time delay removes the temporary invincibility timer that players receive after hitting a mob, so consecutive hits land at once.
What it does
Vanilla Minecraft gives a mob a short window of invulnerability after each hit, which slows rapid attacks. This data pack and mod remove that timer, returning combat to the timing used before the change. The effect applies to every mob and player hit, so a sword or axe can strike again immediately.
Server owners install the data pack by placing its folder in the world datapacks directory and running a reload. Because the change is made on the server, players on a multiplayer server need nothing extra. The mod is available for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, all built for 1.21.3, and the author notes that it has been used on other multiplayer servers as well.
The listing states that the project is not open source. All rights reserved applies to the files, and the author provides an issue tracker for reports. Each loader build and the data pack target 1.21.3 only, with the latest file dated 2024-11-09.

How it compares
Old Combat System is a Fabric-only server mod for 1.21.5 – 1.21.8, under the MIT License, and it is not open source. Revert MC-101556 is a Fabric server mod for 1.21.5 under the Apache License 2.0, and it is open source. Both target versions other than 1.21.3, so they do not cover this build.
