This mod is a port of Mojang's Combat Test 8c to modern versions of MC, with an aim to be as accurate as possible without compromising any usability for the user.
This mod completely overhauls the current combat system in favor of CTS, with customizability for servers and clients so that you can get the best experience possible.
As well, we aim for a great deal of mod support (as much as can be reasonably expected) to give plenty of options to the end user.
