Area	Vanilla behaviour	Change	Effect
Network broadcasts (3 sites across Citadel, Alex’s Mobs, Alex’s Caves)	Property sync, visual-effect and multipart-hit packets use , reaching every player on the server, including players in other dimensions who cannot see the entity`PacketDistributor.ALL`	Switched to , so only players tracking that entity receive the packet`TRACKING_ENTITY`	Dead packets stop reaching far-away and cross-dimension players; savings scale with player count
AI goal scans (5 goals: flee-adult, follow-parent, ride-parent, elephant caravan, gorilla caravan)	The goal selector polls every tick, and each poll performs a nearby-entity query`canUse()`	The query only runs every 4th tick	Scan cost cut to 1/4; behaviour unchanged, only the evaluation cadence
Per-tick entity scans (7: anteater, candicorn, gust, Tasmanian devil, terrapin, skreecher, underminer)	`tick()` runs a , ceiling scan or nearest-player query every tick`getEntitiesOfClass`	Runs every 2, 4 or 8 ticks depending on the entity	Scan cost cut to 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 respectively
Luxtructosaurus roar scatter	A full-range entity scan every tick for the entire duration of the roar	Refreshed every 5 ticks; the cached result is reused in between	Scan cost cut to 1/5, and the caller still receives real results rather than an empty list
Cockroach spawn density	Only the environment is checked (underground, y<64); the existing population is never considered, so bases fill up with cockroaches	After the environment check passes, cockroaches within 32 blocks are counted and spawning is refused at 6 or more	Bases are no longer swarmed; spawner-produced cockroaches are unaffected
