Apothic Combat
Important note: Apotheosis is not available on Modrinth, so it cannot be marked as a dependency, but it is required for the mod to work.
Compatibility Issue
There are functional conflicts between Apotheosis and Better Combat mods:
Apotheosis introduces a "Heavy Weapon" category that is conceptually similar to two-handed weapons from Better Combat, but these systems are completely independent of each other.
Apotheosis (and Forge) treat attack range as an entity attribute that can be increased with gems and affixes. However, Better Combat blocks this capability because it defines attack range as an immutable weapon property through its own JSON structure.
Mod Functionality
Apothic Combat solves these problems in the following way:
Automatically registers all two-handed weapons from Better Combat as HEAVY_WEAPON for Apotheosis, ensuring proper operation of both systems.
Removes the Entity Reach attribute from all weapons and makes the attack range affix non-functional, preventing conflicts between systems.
Planned Features
The following functions may be added in the future (currently they can be implemented via datapacks):
Complete disabling of the attack range affix from Apotheosis
Modification of weapon attributes that currently rely on Entity Reach
