* Add perTick arg to player use continuous * attempt use (on block) that many times per tick, interpolating player position for each.
* fix interpolation (reset prev pos/rot) * commented logging spam
* Record last tick positions and rotations in a better way * remove highly inappropriate hyjacking of 'continuous' action, introduce 'fastclick' action * add new mixins and interface for fastclick support and move things there (from wherever I previously added them) * clean commented log spam

In addition to Silnarm's description, the proposed feature would allow for carpet bots to better emulate real players' actions as it'd let them place at positions in between ticks in a sense. Imagine a bot moving at 5 blocks per tick, but only able to place a block on the 5th block as it misses the other 4 in between ticks. With this fastclick feature, that same bot could place a block on all 5 blocks, given the uses per tick value is set sufficiently, giving us greater flexibility and control over its actions and making the bot more intuitive to use as it'd align with what we already see with real players moving at high speeds using fast right click. A genuine use case for this is in testing tree farms that use multiple cores, where the player must travel between different areas at high speeds. Currently, carpet bots are unable to plant saplings "in between" ticks, making it impossible to test these farms effectively as they consistently miss planting at certain cores due to the player's position at the end of a tick not aligning with the planting window for that core. However, with this new feature, bots would be able to plant saplings at the precise locations required, enabling a new level of automation for testing and running these farms. Importantly, this feature wouldn't affect any other aspect of carpet but would open the doors for a high level of automation for testing these types of high player speed-reliant farms. |
Alternative implementation of what is implemented in #1678 and (upcoming) TIS as
/player foo use perTick X, but implemented here as/player bar use fastclick Xand interpolating position and rotation between ticks, giving a result very similar to a real player using the fastclick tweak or an autoclicker.@ncolyer11 may want chime in to explain the use case better, but essentially it is very high speed planting; with the player moving at somewhere near 3 blocks per tick, which explains why the interpolation is required.
