 Lightweight, accurate anti-cheat for Paper 1.21.x
 
+## Latest Updates (v1.1.1)
+
+- **CriticalCheck**: Removed dead code — the "no-air crit" detection branch was logically unreachable because `isCritical=true` requires `!isOnGround`, making the subsequent `isOnGround` check always false. The check now only flags "crit while sprinting" (the only branch that could actually fire). Removed `allow_jump_crits` config key. (Future enhancement: Option B damage-ratio detection.)
+- **InventoryMoveCheck**: Replaced `Math.sqrt()` with squared distance comparison (`distanceSquared > 0.01`), consistent with the ReachCheck optimisation.
+
 ## Latest Updates (v1.1.0)
 
 - **ReachCheck**: Now measures distance to entity bounding box center instead of feet. Eliminates false negatives when attacking tall entities (horses, iron golems, withers). Also switched from `distance()` to `distanceSquared()` comparison, removing a `Math.sqrt()` from the hot path.
