Rats port

Rats (Unofficial 1.18.2 Port)
Welcome to the unofficial port of Rats for Minecraft 1.18.2 (Forge)! This mod adds small, versatile rodent companions, new mobs, dimension content, and automation mechanics to your world. 

🌟 Mod Overview
Rats are small mobs that spawn at night in the Overworld, similar to monsters. While wild rats can dig through wooden walls, steal food, and destroy crops, once tamed they become one of the most powerful utility tools in Minecraft!

🛠️ Key Features
– Taming & Upgrades: Tame wild rats using Cheese and equip them with custom upgrades (Crafting, Sorting, Farming, Mining, Combat, Flight, and more).
– Base Automation: Command your rats to transport items, harvest crops, chop wood, breed animals, or defend your base automatically.
– Boss Fights & Mobs: Battle unique boss mobs such as the Rat King, Neo-Rattisch, and Piper, and face wild plague-bearing rats.
– Plague Mechanics & Alchemy: Deal with the Rat Plague, brew custom potions, and craft high-tier tech and magic items using rat-related drops.

🔧 1.18.2 Fixes & Improvements
This updated port optimizes the classic 1.16/1.12 codebase for modern Minecraft 1.18.2:
– Java 17 & Forge Registries: Updated entity registrations, networking packets, and data serializers to conform to Java 17 and Forge 1.18.2 standards.
– Dedicated Server Stability: Fixed client-side rendering annotations (DistCleaner / @OnlyIn) to ensure complete crash-free stability on dedicated servers. 
– AI Pathfinding Optimizations: Refactored rat AI pathing routines for smoother performance on multi-modded servers.
