SwingThrough Mod (1.21.1, 1.20.1) – Smart Entity Targeting

SwingThrough Mod allows targeting (and interacting with and attacking) living entities through transparent blocks like grass, crops, and flowers.

Features:

This mod improves targeting behavior by allowing entities to be selected instead of blocks when specific conditions are met:

• The block has no collision.
• The entity is living and attackable.
• The player is not riding the entity.
• The entity is within reach (exact interaction range in version 1.21).

When these conditions apply, the block outline disappears while targeting the entity.

Technical Notes:

• The mod contains a single mixin with about four lines of essential code:
  • Two lines use the full entity targeting range when the block meets the conditions.
  • Two lines discard the block target when the full range is used and the entity meets the conditions.
• No additional raycasts or radius searches are performed.
