[1.15.2] Why are there two seperate event busses?

[Budschie]

I always wondered why there are two seperate event busses.

Do they have any purpose?

They serve different purposes:

The MOD bus is for lifecycle events (registry events, etc) and the FORGE bus is for gameplay events.

They are separate because they are separate classifications of events.

Hi

In addition to what Draco said:

I think the difference arises when more than one mod is installed.

Each mod gets its own MOD bus to deal with its own lifecycle events during startup+initialisation

All mods share the same FORGE bus for gameplay events

I guess the reason is to better control the order that the events are called in for different mods.  No idea why that would be important.

Because mod loading is threaded.
