It'd be really nice if there were some config folder knobs for adjusting things like hook count, range, extend speed, and pull speed, on a per-hook-type basis.

This is supported in 2.0 using data packs. Hooked for 1.12 is no longer being maintained.

completely fair. honestly i forgot about these and have long since moved on past 1.12 myself

I was just visiting to suggest the same thing.

If you're reworking it anyway I might as well throw hook count into the mix for something that could be nice in a config file.

A configurable cooldown timer might also be useful for combat-focused packs. I can see pack devs wanting to limit how often players can easily escape combat.

That’s planned, though the current internals are going to need to be restructured to support it.
