1.18.2 ForgeGradle :runClient command with 1.18.2 MDK fails and crashes

[Type-32]

Hi, has anyone dealt with gradlew :runClient crashing on start before?
I've currently made a forge 1.18.2 mod with the latest mdk and I use IntelliJ IDEA 2024.1 as my IDE, and now whenever I try to run the `:runClient` command with gradle, it works at first, but then the process stops reporting this issue: `Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException` and `Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'int net.minecraft.util.Mth.m_14045_(int, int, int)'`.
I've pasted the full runClient gradle log in this message.

I investigated this issue further on the forge forums to find that not much people had encountered it, and those who did encounter it somehow fixed it with fixes that does not work for me like deleting cache and let gradle redownload the cache or anything and that this issue is caused by a "Corrupted Cache", or whatever the heck that meant.
I tried cloning my entire repo (https://github.com/Type-32/PreciseManufacturing) to another directory to "start fresh" but the same issue persists. I created a new project with a clean forge mod 1.18.2 template but the issue persists. I tried all the fixes I can find but none of them worked. even `.\gradlew --refresh-dependencies` didn't work.

I am getting desparate for any help now
