Worked on the ABKQPO/GT-Not-Leisure repository to address a critical race condition in the recipe-loading lifecycle, focusing on stability and maintainability. Using Java and Mixin, the developer deferred recipe loading until after all removal operations completed, moving execution from the completeInit phase to onRunOnPlayerJoined within the BartworkLoad_Head_Mixin. This lifecycle-aware adjustment ensured correct sequencing and prevented conflicts during player join events, reducing startup jitter and improving reliability. The solution was delivered with minimal risk and no changes to the API surface, supporting smoother ongoing development and facilitating faster onboarding for future contributors in the modding environment.
