Reach compat with Quality Equipment

I read project readme, checked client side and server side configurations, and no such feature exists - YES

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Quality Equipment mod adds new attributes to items such as reach distance for weapons. As it is now, changing the quality of your sword with a +0.5 reach attribute doesn't change the reach distance at all. (The Better Combat mod doesn't take into account Quality Equipment)

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be awesome to see Better Combat detect this attribute and change it in the config of the weapon.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Maybe asking the Quality Equipment author to make a compatibility on his side, and add the reach distance attribute in the better combat system by himself ?

Thank you for your awesome work !

Just for the record, I asked the quality equipment dev to make it compatible and he did, so that's all good now 👍

Reach (or any attack range modifying) attributes are inherently impossible to balance.
No wonder Minecraft Dungeons (which serves as our UX reference) doesn’t have such feature.

I am sorry to say, I will not be implementing this myself for sure.
Anyone looking to have this feature just because it sounds cool is free to implement compatibility, since Better Combat provides an API for attack range modification.

Please note that this attribute is not added by quality equipment, but by forge. The attribute is forge:entity_reach with its translation key overwritten.

I do note that, I stand by my statement.

As a developer I did not ask Forge to add any such content, nor did I opt in for that.

Forge does many of its unwanted features and under the hood changes, regardless ofprojects want it or not. Issues like this and the continuous drama surrounding the platform make it inefficient to develop complex things for that platform.

Hence I recommend using Fabric, where no content is added unless the player installs it.
