OptiPlus-Anchor
by CocoCC
OptiPlus-Anchor removes the empty-frame delay that follows a charged respawn anchor detonation, so the next anchor can be placed on the same spot at once.
What it does
When a charged respawn anchor is blown up, the block stays visible to the client for a short moment until the server sends its block update, and no new anchor can be placed on that spot during the wait. The mod clears the anchor from the client immediately, so the slot is free for the next placement without waiting for the server's confirmation. The server still runs the real detonation, and the mod only drops the empty-frame delay for re-placing an anchor in the same spot.
The mod is a Fabric mod that runs on the client only, so servers and other players need nothing installed. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. A configuration file of about 125 KB is optional, and deleting the setting restores the default.
Key features
Instant anchor clearing
The anchor is removed from the client as soon as it detonates, not after the server's block update arrives.
Immediate re-placement
The freed spot accepts the next anchor on the next interaction, so placement lands without a stutter.
Server-side detonation intact
Only the empty-frame delay is removed; the server still performs the real detonation and its result.
Per-player opt-out
A player can disable the mod by sending a plugin message on a configured channel, and the flag resets on disconnect.

What the author says
Blowing up a charged respawn anchor normally leaves a dead moment: the block is already gone, but your client is still waiting on the server's block update before it will let you place again. OptiPlus Anchor clears the anchor to air on your client the instant you interact, so the spot is free immediately and your…
