Opened this issue ยท 11 comments

i got optifabric but i dont want this mod, can someone pls tell me how to get rid of it and what it does

i would prefer a video or something but even a guide is fine

You cannot get rid of it, it is required by OptiFabric to work.

what does it do? is it a performance mod or does it change stuff like world generation or add new structures?

Complicated behind the scenes stuff like creating new values for existing enums.

no graphic changes then?

None at all

k thanks

but what does "The occasional reflective hack" mean?

Explaining what ASM is would take an hour long lecture, but, basically this library gives mod developers unlimited control over any operation of the game's code. With ASM, mod developers can modify, replace, delete and add code.

Unfortunately, ASM doesn't provide much/any safety precautions for stuff you could do with this power, so making such major changes to code is extremely dangerous and can be considered, by some, a hack, which is reasonable, in a way.

Reflection is a whole another topic, but it's another technology for developers to gain more control over the game's code, which can be unsafe and has to be used with caution.

To sum up, ASM and Fabric-ASM are things that are extremely dangerous and have to be used with caution, but there are simply situations where there is no other option.

k thanks
