Auto Attack Not Working

If your character isn't attacking despite enabling auto attack:

  • Check Mob Targeting: Ensure hostile mobs are actually in front of you and within melee range. Auto attack won't trigger on distant or out-of-sight entities
  • Verify Hostile-Only Setting: If you enabled "attack hostile mobs only" but no mobs are spawning, check your farm's mob-spawning mechanics
  • Weapon Equipped: Confirm you're holding a weapon or tool. Bare-handed attacks may not register properly

Rotation Not Turning

If rotation is enabled but your character isn't spinning:

  • Check Rotation Speed: A speed value of zero will prevent rotation. Increase it to a noticeable value
  • Angle Limitation: Verify your rotation angle isn't set to 0°. It should be at least 90° to see visible turning
  • Mod Conflict: Another mod may be overriding camera/rotation controls. Try disabling other mods temporarily

Performance Issues

If the game lags during AFK farming:

  • Reduce render distance or entity rendering distance
  • Lower rotation speed to reduce calculation load
  • Ensure your farm isn't spawning excessive mobs beyond what your system can handle
